3. Google Docs
Google Drive allows you to access Google
Docs, a suite of tools for creating and editing
Documents, Spreadsheets, Presentations,
and more. Because Google Docs are stored
on your Google Drive, you can open them from
any computer with an internet connection. You
can even invite others to collaborate on the
same document, eliminating the need to email
files back and forth.
4. Synched Cloud Storage
Google Drive syncs your files using the
cloud, so you’ll always see the most current
version of a file on all of your devices. Google
Drive also ensures that your files will be
protected should anything happen to your
computer. If you experience a hard drive
failure or if your computer is lost or stolen,
your files on Google Drive will be secure,
You can easily retrieve your files and pick
up right where you left off.
5. Mobile Access
The Google Drive app gives you access to
your files on the go using your tablet or
smartphone. You can even create new
Google Docs and edit existing files, so you’ll
never miss an opportunity to start a new
project.
6. File Previewing
No matter what type of file you’re storing on
Google Drive, you’ll most likely be able to view
that file on any computer, even if the file
requires a specific program that isn’t installed.
From Microsoft Office Documents like .doc and
.xls , to videos and graphics files, Google
Drive makes viewing all of your files simple
7. Web App Integration
Drive takes advantage of the many new web
applications introduced in the Google
Chrome Web Store over the last few years.
If you use any web app to create files in Google
Chrome, like SlideRocket or AutoCadWS,
you can save and edit those files right form
Google Drive.
