"Best Solution on Storage with Abundant Free Benefits"
What do you like best about Google Workspace?

Google drive is a solution for many things since it's connected to other platforms. You can easily store and organize files, easily share the things you keep, and easily kept them away with privacy settings. The best part of it is how affordable it is. I've been using the drive to control and store many files, and so far, I can only say good things.

What do you dislike about Google Workspace?

Probably the tiny thing I don't really like about Gdrive is that sometimes you need to wait a bit longer when you try to copy many files and try to put them and move them in a different folder. Sometimes I find it a little disturbing.

What problems is Google Workspace solving and how is that benefiting you?

I find it convenient and easier to share files and store them. You don't need to carry around storage such as flash disks and such. You can easily access your files from anywhere, almost on any computer or phone. This Google drive also helps me organize things quickly, and I can get and send access to the files needed with friends or colleagues.

"Great tool for video conferencing"
What do you like best about Google Workspace?

Google Hangouts Meet is an excellent tool for video conferencing. It integrates with Google apps and users can join a meeting straight from the email/Calendar link.

What do you dislike about Google Workspace?

The app does not allow participants to share files, and it does not let you see other users while presenting.

What problems is Google Workspace solving and how is that benefiting you?

The app allows any user to start or join a video/call conference in just a few easy steps. It is an excellent tool for a meeting with your colleagues.

"Simple and quick"
What do you like best about Google Workspace?

Google forms is the best way to get information from my clients. It has an easy interface and is very quick and simple to use. I also like how easy it is to edit the forms to get keep updated information on the go. I also like the mobile interface look. Keeps everything neat and organized and my clients never have issues accessing it remotely.

What do you dislike about Google Workspace?

I wish there were features like polls or surveys. However for the use that I use it for it does get the job done. There are down times here and there but it could be a server issue. This I am not too sure about but It doesn't effect our work and productivity.

What problems is Google Workspace solving and how is that benefiting you?

I was having down time from the server. I did reach out however it does take quite some time to get a response. There Customer service/email isn't the greatest but overall I do give them a 8.5 out of 10. Besides that there are no other issues. The overall system and use is as needed and does help with our productivity and efficiency.

"Google Drive is my first choice for sending or storing big files"
What do you like best about Google Workspace?

I love how it's integrated into my Gmail. If I want to send someone a big file, it says it will send it via Google Drive, and it's done. And then I can access the files later, without having to remember what site I put them on. It's free, and has lots of space - Many sites for sending big files have a low limit, so I can't even send a video.

What do you dislike about Google Workspace?

Google Drive does has a space limit, so sometimes I reach my limit and need to delete files. But I think that applies to every storage site.

What problems is Google Workspace solving and how is that benefiting you?

Mainly, I send files of my voice acting to clients. Also, I send videos to relatives without having to upload them to YouTube. And it stores my Google Docs, where I write all my stand-up comedy. Oh, and I write all my material in Google Docs, so that I can access it from my laptop or my phone. And I even write advertising copy on a Doc while a client is watching, so they can comment and add things as we go - I love doing this instead of emailing files back and forth.

"Your Go-To Information Collection Tool"
What do you like best about Google Workspace?

I love the ease of use and the broad rand of question options that I can use. Google Forms beats any paid survey program in that arena. What I love the best about Google Forms is the variety of outputs it can have. I am a youth pastor in a church, and I use it for registration and documentation uploading for all of my events. It is great for tracking demographics, as well as uploading permission forms. One of the most practical tips I can give, is to have a "Next Steps" portion at the bottom of the form with the links of what the person can do next. I am bad at organization, and it makes me organized - that's how you know that it is a very useful tool!

What do you dislike about Google Workspace?

The user cannot adjust the look/aesthetic of the forms page at all. For example, there cannot be two columns of questions. That is where the paid survey programs have Google Forms beat. I like to track my clicks - Google Forms shortens the URL, but does not allow any ability to track link clicks.

What problems is Google Workspace solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use Google Forms for questionnaires, feedback forms, and information collection. The tool could efficiently function as a signup form or as a form turn-in landing page. If you have an upload function on the page, it automatically creates a Google Drive folder that organizes and houses the uploaded documents. Every time that a form or document is turned in, the administrator receives an email.

"Easy and free conference call application"
What do you like best about Google Workspace?

I can use it anywhere, at any time, and for free. Smartphones, tablets, computers, it is pretty simple. Audio and video quality has been great every time we use it at our Organization. Now we can also blur the background for better privacy.

What do you dislike about Google Workspace?

For better performance, I need to have it downloaded to the computer. Sometimes, also, users find it difficult to share their screens. Once they learn where to go, it becomes easy. Some users find sometimes trouble when logging in, but it's probably their connection.

What problems is Google Workspace solving and how is that benefiting you?

I can have meetings to discuss projects with different designers and put everyone on the same page quickly. It's easy to invite people, share screens, and use all the Google Hangouts Meet features. We can also record the meetings to watch later if someone can't participate at that time.

"Store your files in Google Drive and Access it from anywhere"
What do you like best about Google Workspace?

With Google Drive, access to data becomes more accessible. We can connect with the internet and can assess from anywhere. We can upload/download files easily from Google drive. Google Drive maintains Privacy and data stored there are entirely safe.

What do you dislike about Google Workspace?

Face error message while downloading big file stores at Google Drive. We get free space only for 15 GB. If you need more space, we have to pay Google.

What problems is Google Workspace solving and how is that benefiting you?

All our team members are using Google Drive for data storing and sharing purpose. We use google drive to share files internally with or without permission. With Google Drive we are able to share large files. Auto back-up feature.

"Excellent storage option for people on the go"
What do you like best about Google Workspace?

I love that i am able to access my drive securely on my phone or computer whenever i require information. My partner and i both use the drive which helps us to deliver files required easily. I also find it easy to share, update and maintain files. I also like that i can see how many computers are syncing information in order to make myd ata more secure.

What do you dislike about Google Workspace?

There are very few reasons to dislike drive. My only frustration from time to time is when sharing documents as the links can't always be viewed by others without a drive unless you change the options. I would prefer to have the option to "send via email" from within Drive, rather than having to naviagte to Gmail to attach a file from the drive. This also limits me from using other email providers to send files from Google Drive if my Drive isn't synced to that particular computer. A small issue really, and more often than not i will use my phone which allows greater functionality that a computer.

What problems is Google Workspace solving and how is that benefiting you?

Google Drive has made sharing files with multiple users much easier and it allows me and my partner to work together rather than relying on each other to save/store documents in different locations. Unlike other cloud sharing platforms, i have never had an issue with version control and like that i can see a full version history clearly in order to investigate any issue that may arise (which are rare).

"Design and create insightful forms using Google Forms"
What do you like best about Google Workspace?

I am totally loving this application of Google as now we do not need to do any kind of coding or to use any Corel Design software. neither we have to use Office application by Microsoft to create forms. The coolest application is here - Google Forms. With the help of Google Forms, we can create fantastic looking forms in just couple of minutes. You can collaborate together as a team to create the whole form. This forms one can print the pdf, can share the link directly or can embed in any of our websites. The post submission form procedure is also very unique as you can choose and select how you want to see your collected data whether in the form of bar graphs, pie charts etc. it has a lot of options available for use. You can even add images directly from your system and can make your form aesthetically more good.

What do you dislike about Google Workspace?

The templates for the different types of forms should be provided for trial use. It would be better to get a fair idea of how good we can creat forms.

What problems is Google Workspace solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are using Google forms to create survey and feedback forms of post delivery of our products and training. We can utilise this application to enhance the company's products and thus the objectives.We have improved our hiring process by taking the feedback of all the participants who has applied for the jobs. Google Forms is such an amazing application to make the most use of the opportunity

"Google Forms has made conducting surveys and Market Research easier than ever"
What do you like best about Google Workspace?

Google form is so user friendly and easy to use for anyone. Just drag and drop and your form is ready, then you can share the link with anyone and anywhere, tracking the response is also easier than ever using google sheets available on your google drive. Be it market research, questionnaire for university projects or normal surveys - everywhere we can use Google forms. Even Google Forms can be integrated into any automated tools like VBA or RPA Tools.

What do you dislike about Google Workspace?

Well, one thing is I dislike is dependant fields, which is missing in Google Forms.

What problems is Google Workspace solving and how is that benefiting you?

I have conducted market research I have integrated Google Forms with VBA and RPA (UiPath) for our company I have used Google forms to collect market data for the University project

"Great tool for collaboration"
What do you like best about Google Workspace?

I love how easy it is to use. Anyone familiar with the Microsoft suite of software can easily use the software on google drive. Then, the best part is how easy it is to create documents and share them with friends or coworkers. This is great for collaboration or any sort of group project, info you'd like to share that can also be updated by others.

What do you dislike about Google Workspace?

There isn't much I dislike. It's basically like Microsoft suite, but a few minor differences in where buttons or feature are located.

What problems is Google Workspace solving and how is that benefiting you?

With everyone working from home, this has helped us to work collaboratively while apart. It's been a great help for projects that require several people working on them, people who right now cannot be in the same office space.

"Leader In Cloud Storage"
What do you like best about Google Workspace?

I like the seemlesness of using Google drive. The ability to effortlessly move content and store it is outstanding. From all sorts of devices which can support Google drive. It can be shared and generate its own links. Google.Drive allows users to package data files of a sizes that can later be downloaded, or shared at any time. Items cam be categorized and arranged by an individual, or administrator depending on hownita used and or managed. Other features are in this day features which remind you of experiences or media files on certain days such is the case with pictures and videos. Google Drive can be installed across devices as a stand alone program or ve accessed on line remotely. The technology involved is fantastical in everywhere. There are several folders that help users navigate Google Drive which include Starred. Starred are simply files that have been selected by users or administrators as important files to be reviewed or prioritized..there are suggestions tab which feature suggested media files and other data packages housed within Google Drive. The information that is suggested is typically based on usage and other insights remembered by Google .

What do you dislike about Google Workspace?

There isn't anything that I dislike about Google drive. Everything that is offered. With Google drive is fantastic there are only benefits and good things that can be said about using Google Drive. I Can't even pretend that there are any negative qualities about Google Drive. What is more is that anyone suffering from the unlikely negative features of Google drive can easily leave feedback with Google to help improve the product as a whole. There is more that can be said about the aspects that I enjoy in using Google Drive than what could be said about what I dislike about this cloud. If I had any concerns about using Googke Druve it would be privacy. With cloud based services offered by Google Drive some information and data can be easily compromised and hackers can potentially access the housed data within the cloud and upload the data found to the darkness or other malicious databases. Viruses or other problematic software programs can be infected into the data found within Google Drive which can present serious threats to all the users of the cloud based services provided by Google Drive . As it stands there is no screening programs that filter out malicious programs before the can be installed or uploaded to Google Drive.

What problems is Google Workspace solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am solving the retrieval of data issue. I am able to access my data in and offline. And share access with others. Being able to connect data and across an organization is very important because it allows users the ability to effortlessly exchange information such as polices and other priorities that may be of importance to the organization. Without the Google Drive organizations such as mine would have to search for other cloud based solutions for housing data. Google Drive is offered by Google absolutely free of charge however depending needs Google Drive offers paid storage size which range sizes in terabytes allowing for massive data storage which may be important to some organization that would like to store media files. Additionally programs can be downloaded to Google Drive and Urls can be generated and shared allowing users to access those links and access and download the programs straight from Google Drive. Virtually, there is no end to how much data that can be stored and accessed in Google Drive. Making it an important asset am to businesses, organizations, and individual users.

"Best Presentation maker"
What do you like best about Google Workspace?

Google Slide is one of the best presentation slide creator online. Google slides provided multiples features like multi-collaboration, adding comments, etc. Not only that, the templates and customizable options are really great. Also, the sharing options along with import/export capabilities are very helpful. You can export it in any format of your choice. Also you can easily include images, videos link easily. Also text formatting are really great. The best feature is its platform independent. You just need your browser to access Google slides. You don't have to install any special softwares. There is no lag while presentation creation. Not only that, you get all these features absolutely free. You just need a google account. Also, Google Slides is available on mobile(Android/iOS) as well as Desktop(via browser).

What do you dislike about Google Workspace?

Everything is great with Google Slides. But I think user interface can be improved a little.

What problems is Google Workspace solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are using Google Slides for creating slides for any presentation we need during product development.We are utilizing the multi-collaborative feature of Google Slides to create slides in presentation in collaboration with our co-workers. Also, since there is no special system requirements. Any of our co-workers can contribute to the slides. The easy import/export along with easy sharing option makes the whole process alot smoother. We don't have to give KT's to anyone in case they have not used Google Slide. They can just get started easily.
