✓ Google DriveMany users are already familiar with Google Drive because they’ve used the platform’s 15 GB of free storage space for backing up personal files. This familiarity can help organizations that choose the platform to minimize the learning curves among employees. Data is automatically synced with all devices linked to the account and changes are saved automatically.

As an SEO agency, we depend on file sharing between staff and clients and we trust Google Drive. It’s very easy to use with all documents saving and updating instantly, ensuring everybody always sees the latest version of a document. It’s also very secure with access given to external clients who have a link to documents related to them and nothing else. The cloud-based nature of the platform has been invaluable during the Covid-19 pandemic, as we can access Google Drive anywhere from any device while we work from home.

I recommend Google Drive. For most small businesses, the free storage is more than enough. It also is very easy to collaborate on documents and you don’t have to worry about overwriting someone’s work if two people are in the document at the same time as changes can happen simultaneously. Everything is automatically saved to the cloud so if your computer crashes, you don’t risk losing anything.

Thanks to technology and the internet, saving and sharing files has been made easier and more efficient than ever. Gone were the days when I needed to run to a photocopy machine or write manually in order to obtain copies of notes and lessons. Nowadays, you can easily share data or content in a click of a button. File-sharing software became a must-have, in fact, 80% of employees request for this in their workplaces in order to become more productive.

Google Drive is perhaps the most widely used software for sharing and storing files. It’s super easy to use and anyone with a Gmail account gets it for free. You can easily link your documents, PowerPoint presentations, or spreadsheet files with Google Drive and share it by inputting another person’s email address. And anyone whom you shared your document to can edit it. What’s more, it provides a free 15GB storage but can be extended to 200GB for about $30 per year. But, what I personally love about it is its ability to organize your files on its own.

I recommend using Google Drive because it is easy to share files, videos, music, photos, and more at one place with my team members. One of the best features of Google Drive is it automatically syncs data with all the devices linked to one account so that one can immediately retrieve and access the data they need. If any team member from the team will delete files by mistake, it is easy to restore and we will never lose any of our critical data.

I’m using Google Drive for my office projects because it automatically syncs all our team member’s data and receives the notification when someone from team members has made changes. This feature allows us to work on the same file at the same time. One of the best things about Google Drive is it’s user- friendly UI. I don’t have any security concerns with Google Drive because it uses 256-bit AES encryption with files in transit and 128-bit AES encryption.
