Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Google Drive is a pretty good system to be able to improve storage for both personal and business use. The main aspect that I liked about this platform is its connectivity with the Google account, this connectivity and synchronization is very important to be able to maintain a constant storage within this platform, because this synchronization allows you to share files in real time, between the devices that are linked to your Google account. In addition, each of the images, documents or files that you upload from your mobile device, you can see in real time when it is fully uploaded from your computer, this synchronization is immediate and very beneficial for all types of companies. Another thing that I liked about Google Drive is the way in which it allows me to edit all types of documents, without having to download them, in addition, it also allows me to view documents online, without having to download the documents, within my computer, this storage system has an integrated service to be able to view documents online, which is great, since you do not have an application to view documents, you just have to use this cloud service. Another feature that I must highlight is in relation to the prices that this platform handles, the price for hiring more storage space is relatively accessible and very cheap, compared to other cloud storage platforms, I consider that Google Drive has the most affordable prices on the market today, and it is completely secure cloud storage at a price that you will not find anywhere else.
  • It is a secure point of storage and you can block unauthorized access to your files. It has allowed easy sharing of the files , documents and create PDF or cluster your documents for easy access
  • The available space for files storage is limitless. It is affordable costs nothing and very secure in storing both files and documents. Has ability to convert your files into any formats needed either PDFs or any other.
  • Mostly I use Google Docs, Google Sheets and Google Forms for my work and it's easy to share and store. Features are very easy to use.
  • Google Drive is one of the better Google apps. I have several device and use it to more files from one device to another. This app has so many important features. Easy to use and user friendly.

Cons

  • There are several things that can be improved within Google Drive, the main feature that I did not like is in relation to its general design, the design as a platform is quite simple and very basic for all users, in addition, there is no type of function or way to modify this design, either to change the colors of it or change the general interface of Google Drive, I would like the user interface to be able to be modified to the user's taste, in this way I will be able to use a cloud service, which allows me to modify the design depending on my comfort. Another thing that I did not like about Google Drive is that this platform forces the user to maintain an active and stable Internet connection. At all times, otherwise you will not be able to access any type of document or image stored within your system, in the cloud, this is quite negative, I would like the platform to save very small copies of each of the stored files, in this way each of those files can be accessed, without needing to maintain an active Internet connection, this would be quite good for users who have a poor Internet connection.
  • When too loaded it may get lagging but it doesn't stop it from functioning so that doesn't sound like a dislike whatsoever.
  • I have not encountered any dislike it's as simple as it looks.
  • I do not find anything that I dislike about Google Drive.
  • A great application became useless. When I upload a file from my device, I open drive on other devices and the file is not there. Sometimes it can't upload a single file or photo and it says it's uploading but never upload.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • It is the security of all our data in a much more immediate way, that it is based on the cloud gives us confidence and the necessary storage to upload all our documents. It is a totally confidential and personalized system; we can create our own useful and unique workspace that allows us to customize in detail adjusting the options to our work requirements. Having access from any device has opened the doors and a million possibilities for each member of the work team to access the application and exchange or receive files properly, without any type of limitation or sending capacity. It allows us to classify the documents to maintain order and organization in all our work, separating by areas, making it much more comfortable for us to search through filters or mobilize the documents. It allows us to store data, everything we want to keep safe Citrix will do it through encryption, we know that it is 100% committed to security and that absolutely everything will be in the cloud under coverage, so if we need to store something immediately, we send it to Citrix and its protection will be assured. In Citrix ShareFile we store the entire database of our clients, we can transfer each data, organize and categorize and thanks to the security that it provides us, I know that the data of each of our clients will always be safe.
  • For our organization, Sharefile has been of complete benefit because it is perfect for making important and confidential contracts relying completely on the anti-hacking security it offers. Similarly, it has partnerships and integration with Office formats that makes it easy to synchronize and store files in the cloud to share with any employee who has access to the account.
  • Simple to manage. Simple for end my users to use. Simple for my users to use with their clients. Can layer security as deep as you want.
  • It has a good integration alliance with Office and allows us to work collaboratively with all the files we have synchronized without exception. Likewise, it is useful for sharing elements to manage confidential contracts with the security that the platform provides and avoids hacking or information leaks.
  • With Sharefile all our information stored in the cloud can be easily accessible, and we can create, in addition to our own folders for purely personal use, a file box for files that we do not need at the moment, but in the long term, and a trash, with files that eventually will be deleted.

Cons

  • I find the integration with other important platforms of which I would like to guarantee the storage of data that I contain there but I have not been able to due to its lack of integration solidity. We had billing automatically and when we wanted to make some adjustments at the time it was difficult for us to do this and we had to contact support to solve it, being able to configure it on our own would be much better and more efficient. Managing the permissions is not that comfortable either, many times we need to adapt the permissions so that several colleagues are also administrators, and it is cumbersome to add them one by one as we want. It has not been an error or nothing else has happened to us, but we receive constant notifications that the system is being updated and we do not know why, why it is so constant or if it is an error. We do believe it is important that the interface be expanded with new and better tools that give us a much broader and more solid user experience when it comes to sharing, editing, and organizing files. Sometimes we find that it does not synchronize in real time, which interferes with our work, we must update many times until new data or documents appear. I think there are a couple of important points that I truly believe that if they are improved, it can make Citrix a perfectly safe and comfortable place to store each of our important data.
  • With the daily use of the application we have observed that when you have an estimated 20GB of storage usage, the platform becomes very slow and it is difficult to process certain functions. Similarly, when transferring files that exceed a weight of 1G Sharefile has an unexpected shutdown and very rarely deletes files that were previously synced.
  • There are no cons that I have come across thus far.
  • Although its specifications clarify that it has a capacity to share large files up to 100GB, we have found that the platform becomes slow and transfers are mostly cancelled. Also, we have had problems with synchronization and deletion of less heavy files without recovery option.
  • Sharefile has its own inbox for messages, but this cannot be connected to our main mailing service, so with Sharefile we cannot manage our Outlook or Gmail mailing lists automatically, forcing us to opt for purely manual management of our content.
