Find out in this report how the two Content Collaboration Platforms solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It is a stable platform. It is very easy to use, and most importantly, it is very easy to administer. It also gets up and running quite easily."
"G Suite Enterprise is user-friendly, and the technical toolkits and other information are on the website. Additionally, the technical documents are comprehensive."
"The solution helps us to collaborate."
"The corporate email feature on Google's Gmail is fantastic."
"We value the collaboration levels that are offered. Having everything integrated in a single platform is a dream come true for us."
"It's secure. It offers data security and user privacy. I use it for personal purposes. The interface is okay, and it's easy to use."
"The most valuable features are the speed at which G Suite Enterprise works."
"The product is user-friendly and knows how to appeal to a user. Google Docs accepts some of our requirements. Its most valuable feature is performance. The product's integrations are good."
"It is free if you use Microsoft Office 365."
"They have support for integration with a lot of tools."
"We use Microsoft OneDrive for file sharing without the need for additional hardware (such as flash drives or external hard drives)."
"The stability of Microsoft OneDrive is very good, it is reliable. There were multiple instances where I had lost my valuable data on hard drives in several other places. However, with Microsoft OneDrive, I've never lost a single file."
"It helps you keep organized."
"It is simple to use and it allows me to give me the opportunity to access anything I want from any device."
"The feature that I have found the most valuable is that Microsoft OneDrive works with any Enterprise Cloud Solutions Office app. You can edit a document on the cloud, share documents with your colleagues, and monitor changes. You can access your work almost anywhere. You can also sync Microsoft OneDrive with your workstation so that whatever you are working on gets automatically backed up to the cloud at regular intervals. So even if your system crashes, you still have a copy of your documents in the cloud, which I found very useful."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the amount of space allotted to each user that is issued a subscription."
"With the Internet of Things, a platform that integrates well with others would be even better."
"Integrating Copilot with Google Workspace is slightly difficult."
"To a degree, the project management service could be improved."
"Less customizations than there used to be."
"They could increase the number of third-party integrations on offer."
"It would be nice to have additional software, such as Microsoft Teams, since our basic edition, Google Meet, cannot record video."
"What needs improvement in Google Workspace is the Google Drive app, in particular, making the process of finding the shared and most used files and folders easier. The first time you get an invite to view a file or folder in Google Drive and you view that folder or file, it's pretty easy, but the next time you try to access it again, sometimes, it's a bit difficult to find what was shared with you. An additional feature I'd like to see in Google Workspace is the option to un-send messages in Gmail. Microsoft has a message recall feature, and this isn't available in Gmail, so it's the feature I'd like to be added to Gmail."
"The solution could improve by having more frequent updates."
"I think it should be more user-friendly with more tutorials on the full scale of the program."
"The security is not as flexible as it is with Dropbox, which means that we can't share our OneDrive files."
"The initial setup is a bit clunky."
"If I want to pick out certain criteria of pictures, Google enables me to do that whereas OneDrive is a bit sort of flaky."
"An online video player would be great, since sometimes you have to download the video to play it."
"It takes too long for OneDrive to synchronize various applications, especially when you are saving office data. It also requires too much bandwidth."
"OneDrive is a bit behind competing products like Dropbox and Box."
"The scalability has room for improvement."
