## Reviews

### "Reliable and eady to use." — 5.0/5

> **Sasha** | *22 September 2025* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: So easy to use. I can upload videos and photos from my phone. I don't automatically back up my photos because I take so many so I prefer to edit what photos I am keeping and just save those to my google drive. I can also edit my videos before saving them. I use folders so its easy to find the photos or videos I need once saved. I can access my google account from any device I log in to.
> 
> **Cons**: Large videos can take a while to upload depending on your internet connection. I set them to upload overnight.
> 
> Great, I have used it for years and will continue to. I often recommend this product to colleagues, family and friends.

### "Google Drive the way to go" — 5.0/5

> **Renico** | *24 February 2025* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: That all our information can be stored at the same place for the whole company to access
> 
> **Cons**: If you don't have access to internet, you cant access the drive
> 
> We cannot complain about Google Drive as we have excellent experience with Google Drive, we work daily on it and need to save loads of data, with no problem

### "Great versatility" — 5.0/5

> **Lukasz** | *20 December 2024* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What I like most about Google Drive is its versatility. I can not only put many different types of files there, but also use them (read or play them). I can also edit many of them (documents). Everywhere and from different devices. I love it\!
> 
> **Cons**: Honestly, I can't think of any downsides. Except maybe that the service is so good that I use it to the max and that's why I always have too little free space :)
> 
> A great tool and very versatile - both for professional and personal use.

### "Easy to set up" — 4.0/5

> 
> **Pros**: I like how easy the whole thing was to set up and super easy to sync with my other google software such as my Gmail
> 
> **Cons**: I have found some slight issues with sharing writable copies of certain files, occasionally they will only share as readable and customer service is very difficult to come by
> 
> Overall Drive is a very comprehensive and robust software, I feel rest assured that my files are backed up

-----

### "Great to store files" — 4.0/5

> **Nico** | *22 March 2019* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The large quantity of data you can store and how it integrate with the whole Google G Suite solution.
> 
> **Cons**: I find the navigation not very intuitive.
> 
> Using G Suite, we use Google Drive in our company to store all our documents online.
