"I have found the most valuable feature to be the Google Drive synchronization."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is file sharing with partners."
"I like how Google Drive syncs content across all my devices. It allows me to transfer files between multiple devices at the same time. I also like the versioning features."
"The tool is intuitive and easy to use."
"Recording is a major feature for us. Dictation is huge. I use that on client calls when the client is speaking."
"Since most of our employees are familiar with Microsoft solutions Microsoft 365 Business is very easy to use for everyone."
"The initial setup is easy to implement and deploy."
"The two biggest value adds of the solution are having the ability to outsource the email and not having to manage the email server. It's just seamless. Having the most current versions all around and having things updating frequently by themselves ensures that everybody's got access to the same software."
"I am impressed with the MDM feature."
"The most valuable feature is Microsoft Teams."
"This is a user-friendly product that is easy to use."
"The solution is easy to use and has good performance."
"If you have different accounts, you have to log out and log in to access the accounts. This could be improved by removing this requirement. The storage limit could also be increased."
"It would be helpful if there was a synchronization option that would allow me to synchronize folders or emails with my online repository. That way, any new items added to the folder would automatically be uploaded to the solution, without me having to manually upload them."
"The solution is relatively new and takes some time to get used to."
"When compared to Commvault or Veeam, I'm not sure what Google Drive has to offer in terms of backing up data on the cloud or in a data center for a large organization."
"The tool must allow more customization."
"The product lacks in the area of documentation."
"The ability to share documents with outside clients can be improved. It is difficult to share documents with outside clients, and that's why I am looking at some other solution. If you use Google Drive, they want you to use all of their Google Suite, but not everybody uses Google Suite for document creation. It is not a great solution if you are working with a company that doesn't use Google Suite."
"Google should also make it simpler to manage rights and access for different users. I want to share one folder with some people and another with other groups. It's not easy to manage. You have to use Google's web interface to assign rights, but IBM Box lets you permissions directly on the Windows interface."
"More integration with Cortana would be helpful."
"The configuration could be faster."
"For the past six months, I have been facing a synchronization issue between the calendar of Microsoft Teams and the calendar of Microsoft Outlook. In Microsoft Teams, I can't see the updated version of some meetings, but Outlook shows the updated version. There is a problem with data synchronization between the calendars of these applications. Both calendars should be synchronized."
"The latest update has got a lot of bugs and it is causing us problems."
"The online and desktop versions should have the same user experience."
"The solution is very large and PowerPoint and Word crash sometimes. The stability could improve."
"The pricing of the solution could be better."
"The only problem with 365 nowadays is that it expires."
