13. SWOT ANALYSIS FOR GOOGLE DRIVE
Positives Negatives
Internal Strengths
Intuitive to use.
Has built in organizational features.
Accessible from any online platform.
Easy interface between Google docs,
slides, classroom, calendar, etc.
Work is saved automatically.
Weakness
Requires Gmail address
Shared docs remained shared
unless status is deliberately
changed
Requires access to internet
External Opportunities
Allows users to present in a way that is
strongest for them. (text, slides, videos,
etc.)
Students can connect both personally and
virtually.
Easy access to Google search engines,
including images.
Threats
Depends on reliable internet
access.
There are occasional glitches while
downloading documents.
Occasionally, a link will break
rendering itself useless.
Documents in certain formats do
not save correctly in drive. (for eg.
word charts / tables)
14. FUTURE PLAN
CLOUD STORAGE SERVICE:
As more and more millennials enter the workforce, expect this trend to
intensify as more individuals and organizations take to Googles Cloud for
all their documents and collaboration.
Google is also rapidly expanding its B2B Cloud infrastructure, but with
only 3.95% of the market, they have a long way to go to catch Amazon
(AWS), creating massive growth potential in this $25B+ market for IaaS
(infrastructure as a service).
GOOGLE DRIVE FILE STREAM:
It absolutely relies on connectivity, nothing apart from temporary
files is stored locally, it all stored in the cloud and so what happened is
that a network drive is created on your system and that network drive is
just a cloud drive.
Its a perfect idea as once it is implemented well which it isnt yet.
15. FUTURE PLAN
The idea is to make collaboration with external
third parties, colleagues in different teams or
different levels of management easier without
having to give broad drive permission.
For a marketing department, you can have a
shared drive accessible by all internal employees,
with a specific folder for advertising materials thats
also accessible to an external agency.
