Common pitfalls in Google Drive

Google Drive is the built-in file storage system in Google Workspace, and seemingly there is not much else to say about it, one would think especially because a lot of employees are familiar with it from their private usage through their Gmail accounts — but time and time again, we work with companies who have run into operational dead-ends with it when they didn't pay close attention to how their users understood and used this storage space specifically in the work environment.

💎 Watch the video to see a comparison of the two sections of Google Drive: My Drive and Shared drives — and common pitfalls.

❓ Which part of Google Drive do you use?

The cost of a download, a cautionary tale

 

Did you know that users not knowing how to use #googledrive effectively can actually cost your company in storage? 💵 (And in person hours.) 

❓ What does your company's storage cost look like?

When employees treat Google Drive files as if they were offline and upload/download them, and send them by email, they create version control issues and generate unnecessary storage costs. 

📂 Version control issues: When multiple employees upload different versions of the same file, it can be difficult to track which version is the most up-to-date. This can lead to errors and rework, which can cost your company time and money. 

🌩️ Storage costs: Every time a file is uploaded to Google Drive, it takes up storage space. And when employees send files as attachments instead of sharing them, they're using up even more storage space in Gmail.

These costs can add up quickly. 

So, what can you do to reduce the cost of ineffective Google Drive usage?

🤝 Offer information management consultation and training. 

☁️ Once your employees are trained, encourage them to use Google Drive for most of their file storage and collaboration needs.

By following these tips, you can reduce the cost of ineffective Google Drive usage and improve the productivity of your employees. 😀
