Pros

“I pay for the google premium so I get extra features with google meet included, I am beyond satisfied with the value I get from that, I use meets daily for all my meetings and never have any bugs or issues.”

Arran D.

CEO

“Most of our project folders have Docs for things like toolbox talk notes, subcontractor contact lists, equipment handover checklists and internal procedures.”

Rishi S.

IT Administrator

“It completely eliminates the need for email attachments or physical flash drives. Despite minor UI clutter and the occasional need to manually clean up folders, it remains my go-to platform for cloud storage and team collaboration.”

Ritesh G.

Fullstack Developer

Pros

“It’s bulk instant messaging is the most effective feature than in any other chat application which made our group chat extremely efficient.”

Taylor A.

Executive Assistant

“I liked being able to have group conversations.”

shauna g.

packager

“The customization you can do, and the simplicity into adding a live chat widget into your web app in the way you like without importing any extra modules, you just run a JavaScript script in your web app. And the functionality is so good but to find how to correctly use them might be a bit hard :)”

Omar M.

Software Developer

Cons

“The main things I like least are the pricing for higher storage, occasional customer support delays, a few usability complexities, file-sharing permission confusion, storage limits, occasional bugs or sync issues, and search results that can sometimes feel less precise when there are many files.”

Shivam K.

Full Stack Developer

“Additionally, I hate the updated cost/storage structure where my emails count towards my Drive storage and if I want more than 15 GB I have to pay a monthly subscription or delete important/sentimental emails.”

Sara S.

Client Relations Coordinator

“The one thing is in the formatting of bigger documents, sometimes tables and images do not format when you export them to other formats that can irritate them while making project reports. If the Internet connection is poor, it takes some time to sync sometimes, causing delays.”

Nguyen H.

Deputy Service Manager

Cons

“My one niggle with RC is with the way notifications work when you're logged in on multiple devices and apps. When I read a message on my desktop app, it's not marked as read on my mobile apps.”

Charlie S.

Systems Administrator

“It is very confusing to go back if you click on add a file out of purpose...”

Olive F.

Advisor

“I do not get notifications at all, I am late to reply to so many messages because I do not get any of the notifications. And I have to refresh every time to check if I got any new messages.”
