It has
finally happened; Google has officially launched its syncing service, Google Drive, which
had been announced almost half a year earlier. Shortly after the release of
GDrive, as it’s frequently called now, its features have been already described
in details by a great deal of online tech portals.
With such a
wide PR campaign in the media, GDrive should be not less, than a masterpiece,
as one may think, right? At least, it should include incredible advantages in
comparison with other services on the market. Yet...well, it’s doesn’t.
It would be
inappropriate, or I even dare say wrong to state that Google Drive is full of drawbacks or is
inferior to what the users have been offered by other IT companies before. The
quality of the service is absolutely sufficient for usage, whereas the syncing
speed can satisfy the preferences of an average user.
Moreover,
what is also beneficial about GDrive is the total security of your data,
supposedly guaranteed by the fact that Google is such a reputable corporation,
that it just can’t possibly fail in keeping your files safe.
At the same
time, there isn’t anything state-of-the art in the service, as many experts
admit. It’s good, but it doesn’t have anything special to overcome the rivals. You
only get 5GB for free, whereas the users of 4Sync still receive the whole 15GB
of free space. It enables you to upgrade for a 25GB or a 100GB or even a 1TB
package for a relatively small sum of money (only a $2,49 monthly fee for 15GB,
for instance), but yet you have got to pay to expand your storage space.
It is surely
crystal clear that you can’t but face the necessity to purchase a certain
product, especially if it’s an exquisite one, but would you pay for a product,
which can be got for free?
That is the
question.
Stay cool)
