"I have more than enough personal storage and have had no security issues."
"Everything I store in the solution is available on all of my devices."
"Google Cloud Storage performs well and it's easy to use."

"The most valuable feature is the cryptographic technology."
"On the phone, I appreciate how seamless it is."
"The responses from the technical team are fast...It is a stable product...We do have plans to increase the number of users since it is a scalable product."
"It is easy to use."
"It is a very scalable solution. I rate the solution's scalability a nine out of ten."
"It helps us with geo-redundancy."
"We have not explored the desktop performance analysis of the file storage, but the user interface, API, and the response that we receive over the file storage are very good. We have a lot of customers that connect to the client-side, click the images, and upload them. The beauty of the solution is that we can mount the file storage into a critical server as well as an external drive. The speed that we receive with the images is pretty good."
"Implementations with other products are easy."
"Integration with the entire Azure platform."
"What I like about Microsoft Azure File Storage is its convenience for customers, cost-effectiveness, and high availability."
"The interface is very good."
"The initial setup is fairly easy."
"I would like more storage available."
"It would be better to assign storage usage to different categories, because storage capacity is cumulative, if your Google album and email are both full, you will be unable to send or receive email."
"While the solution seems to be secure, I worry that, with the cloud, there is a chance of hacking. It would be ideal if they could be more transparent about the processes they go through to keep our data secure in the cloud and on their systems."
"The solution must provide some accessibility features."
"Google Cloud Storage could improve by increasing the storage from 15 GB. If I want to have more storage I need to pay extra money."
"It could be made even more secure and allow for more storage."
"Google Cloud Storage is scalable, but you have to pay extra."
"My use case of this solution is fairly minimal. However, I am concerned about privacy on a cloud platform. Many people are not migrating to a cloud service because they are still concerned about putting data in cloud-based storage."
"Maybe Microsoft can make it more economical because it is a costly affair."
"Sometimes it takes very long to refresh the information."
"The solution is not user-friendly."
"The way retention policies are applied could be more optimized."
"The security could always be modernized."
"Considering the enterprise licensing required for the solution, the cost of the solution is an area where the product needs improvement."
"It would be good if they added some features that make the solution easier to access for everyone."
"Licensing costs are expensive."
