    Perfect for grading during pandemic!

    Date: Nov 25 2020
    Summary

    It's really brilliant! Now I don't have to worry about losing students' work or organize a zillion emails of their submissions. Now it's all in one place.

    Positive

    It is a perfect place to organize virtual work that is handed in during this pandemic! Now I can grade/comment on students work within the drive!

    Negative

    The downfall isn't Google Drives' fault, but sometimes parents/students who aren't very tech savvy have trouble figuring out how to submit work within a folder or at all. They get frustrated during the learning curve.

    Drive - One stop cloud storage solution.

    Date: Jun 09 2020
    Summary

    My experience with the Google Drive is very good. I mostly use google drive to store all my work files as well as personal files. It becomes easy to share a document with the help of drive and one can set options like who can edit or view the document. All of the content from slides, sheets, and docs end up in the drive as a one-stop storage place which helps in organizing files.

    It is a definite recommendation but once when a person finishes the free data the price will be a bomb.

    Positive

    (+) Very easy to use and great UI and UX.
    (+) All of the files on email, slides, sheets end up in the google drive.
    (+) The sharing of files is very easy security-wise.
    (+)Free of cost and provides 15GB data, for enterprise accounts basic, is 30GB.
    (+) Very fast and real-time changes can be seen.
    (+) The mobile application is a plus where you can easily access all the necessary documents you will ever need.

    Negative

    (-) Sharing of files can be a problem sometimes when the link is accessed too many times the file will become unavailable.
    (-) Lag in the download of big files can be observed at times of server crowding.
    (-) No backup for deleted files, one cannot access it again.

    Google Drive

    Date: Jun 19 2020
    Summary

    All in all, I have been using Google Drive for years now and it has eliminated the need for backing up my computer to an external hard drive, I have upgraded my account to purchase more space which is a reasonable price.

    Positive

    What can I say Google Drive is like necessary like air! It is a great secure way to back up your files securely and I use it to share files between my multiple computers easily. Additionally, you can easily share large files as simple as sending a link.

    Negative

    Sometimes the servers can be a little bit on the slow side for large files in my opinion, I have a super fast internet connection, but really large files can take some time which can be an issue.

    Online flash drive

    Date: Mar 31 2020
    Summary

    I love this application so much. It’s literally an online flash drive. It supports an insanely large amount of different media types. One problem is that dukes can transfer a little bit slowly, but it’s honestly a negligible amount.

    Positive

    Supports many types of media, Compatible with many devices, Perfectly complements other google applications

    Negative

    Sometimes, files can transfer a little bit slowly on Google Drive, but typically that only affects larger files.
