Senior Software Engineer at a tech vendor with 501-1,000 employees
Collaboration works seamlessly and automation supports efficient file sharing
I work as a software engineer in fraud prevention projects where I function primarily as a data engineer. I work with data warehouses, which are centralized storage systems where transactions through databases occur and data from various client sources is consolidated. Amazon WorkDocs can be integrated with AWS Lambda and used with step functions. If publishing with SNS, WorkDocs can subscribe to SNS as well. The integration capabilities of WorkDocs with other AWS services are strong. For access, we use Okta with our AWS account, and we can only log in through our laptops. We authenticate and access whatever services we are authorized to use from the company. Mobile access is not allowed. On a scale of 1-10, I rate Amazon WorkDocs an 8.

Have faced some confusion with the interface but have managed collaboration and document sharing efficiently
We currently use Notion for project management and CRM, which includes document capabilities and task management features. We have a self-hosted solution and utilize Google Drive Enterprise for everyday tasks. We are customers of Google and integrate Google Drive Enterprise with third-party applications. The compliance requirements are met through the platform's features. On a scale of 1-10, I rate Google Drive Enterprise an 8.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"For content sharing, it provides automation features that can be customized according to needs, which are some of the best features that I appreciate."
"This solution is great for inviting and sharing documents with other users."
"Compared to other solutions such as Microsoft, this solution offers faster synchronization."
"The solution is good for sharing and I like the storage aspect, it's very helpful."
"Because it combines multiple functionalities and features in one place, Google Drive was my go-to storage system."
"The initial setup of Google Drive Enterprise was very straightforward with no issues at all."
"My advice to people who are considering Google Drive Enterprise as a solution is to go ahead and use it as it is a good tool, it is secure, and it is great for managing internal company documentation in a secure fashion."
"The stability of Google Drive Enterprise is good."
"The solution is good, it does everything one needs, it is cloud-based, sufficiently secure, user-friendly, and I have not faced any problems in which I feel something to be missing."
"I used DropBox in the past, but I switched to Google Drive because it's more convenient."
 

Cons

"I had a very bitter experience with their mobile app."
"The auditing features of Amazon WorkDocs have not helped meet compliance needs."
"I rate the solution a three out of ten."
"The search function in Google Drive Enterprise could be improved as it currently requires looking through many documents to find the right one."
"The thing I would change is the pricing. We are a small company, and we have to pay the price for the full Enterprise version because we use some features that are only available on top-tier subscriptions."
"Google Drive Enterprise is expensive. Google Sheets APIs need improvement."
"Google meets use of whiteboard is primitive making it difficult to demonstrate while talking."
"I am not sure what will happen if you forget to renew your license."
"Once you move off of the free version and go to the enterprise solution, it can get quite pricey."
"If somebody has made changes, for example, there should be a timestamp. Also, if two or three people are working and someone deletes something, a mechanism to retrieve the previous version should be available."

"If you need extra storage for the product, then you need to make certain payments towards the product's licensing charges."

"That would be ideal if it were as cheap as possible."
