Also, I an edit files and updated them on real time which facilitates my day-to-day activities. Finally, I can keep shared folders where I can work on projects with my collaborators > > **Cons**: In general it works really well. Sometimes I struggle with the search engine trying to find the right document but most of the times it is able to help ----- ### "Worth and reliable cloud storage" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *July 25, 2026* | Consumer Goods | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Google Drive has a and user friendly interface that helps the user to upload or organize the files easily. It also provides the feature of collaboration which is also one of my favorite features of Google Drive as it allows sharing the data all the files with other users in real time smoothly also it has managing the documents seamless in its folders which keep the documents clutter free. > > **Cons**: The biggest problem that I found using Google Drive is the limited storage for the free users. Managing large number of files in becomes a serious headache. Also getting assistance from the customer support is difficult for the free user. > > All in all my experience with Google Drive has been positive as it offers excellent value for money features and also it provides affordable upgrade options. The integration of Google Drive with Google Docs also makes note taking and text editing easy and provides access to the documents anytime and anywhere. ----- ### "Only sometimes working" — 3.0/5 > **Etân** | *September 17, 2026* | Computer Games | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: Collaborative projects are well implemented. Managing privacy of your documents is also easily done. > > **Cons**: The UI is a mess, navigating through it is messy. Uploading big files takes a while even with a good Internet connection, and it only works half the time, and crashes the other half. > > Not good. I really don't like the way it was designed and thought, and the crashes issues are a pain when working with large files. ----- ### "Google Drive for Storing Photos" — 5.0/5 > **Graham Brian** | *June 18, 2026* | Photography | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It retains the folder structure from the source. You can buy more Tb of storage. It can be viewed as Google Photos in just date order, or access through the folder structure. Uploads are seamless. If you specify Google Drive as the upload then it matches the documents in the folder. If you specify upload by Google Photos it retains originals and every edit. I specify upload as Google Drive so that photos in folders match the source. > > **Cons**: Google Photos option to upload keeps every edit meaning space is used up quicker. In comparison with OneDrive the options are more extensive but understanding how it uploads to the cloud is quite complex. > > My overall experience is good. It is not overly expensive to buy additional storage space compared with OneDrive. ----- ### "Great Platform for Content Creation and Collaboration" — 5.0/5 > **Ashley** | *August 6, 2026* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: In my experience, Google Drive is very easy to use and learn how to navigate. They make it easy to store and organize your files, therefore making it easy to search for what you need. Google Drive also allows us to collaborate with our partners and lets them access content, making collaboration and content creation smoother. > > **Cons**: One thing that I would change about Google Drive is the storage capacity for free users. It seems to run out of storage fairly quickly before charging a fee. > > I've been using it for years and will continue to use it due to its ease, universal access with partners, and convenience. Google makes it easy to collaborate with others and access from anywhere which makes it a lot more appealing and inviting to use. ----- Page: 1 / 1146\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ca/software/90762/drive?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ca/software/90762/drive) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
