Yes Google drive is very useful. We need not to worry about viruses or pen drive is notย accessing . You just add all important data in google drive and access from anywhere any time via mail.I am using google form for online library feedback since five years.At the end of the year I got feedback analysis which will be useful for NAAC . We can put forward to higher authority if any negative comments received by users.
I have recently started using google slides for presentation which is also very useful. We can add contents anywhere at workplace or at home as and when we have time. it will automatically saved the data.
If you sync your mobile with gmail all the photos taken by you can also saved in google photos . You can create album and share instantly or keep for record.ย
There is one feature of You tube in gmail settings. If your mail is open and you are searching any videos it will be saved in history, so that you need not toย search again and again. You can watch later or show in the classroom if it saved. You can also delete search history any time.
Google calendar is great. As I am IQAC team member,ย in my institution I add all the college events in google calendar in IQAC gmail which is accessible to all IQAC team members. At the end of the year we can print download the calendar with detail of events which will be useful for College magazine and AQAR report preparation.
Google Drive is a cloud-based system powered by Google. It is available for free for personal (up 15 GB) and for business use, there is enterprises version.
Apart from upload, share create of new documents it also provides add-ons of various useful applications and software such photo editor, PDF to word, zip file support etc.ย
Library Technology Solutions such as Koha and DSpace and its developer's community have provided the technical solutions(knowledge, process) of automatic backup in Google Drives.ย
The similar solutions to Google Drive are One Drive, DropBox and many other provided to users as a service on the procurement of some hardware or software but Google Drive stand best among all.
Creating and sharing is the main purpose of Google Drive in this regards one can the documents and can share with its sharing utilities with various privacy controls and checks.
Google's smart technology put all the files in drive if the size of the file is exceeding the 25 MB.ย
Apart from the mainstream, desktopย uses; it is very easy to predict the number of users of Google Drive; only we need to know the number of Android phone users.
