Publisher's Description
From Google:
Google Drive is a place where you can create, share, collaborate, and keep all of your stuff. Whether you're working with a friend on a joint research project, planning a wedding with your fiance or tracking a budget with roommates, you can do it in Drive. You can upload and access all of your files, including videos, photos, Google Docs, PDFs and beyond. Get started with 5 GB free.
With Google Drive, you can:
Create and collaborate. Google Docs is built right into Google Drive, so you can work with others in real time on documents, spreadsheets and presentations.
Store everything safely and access it anywhere. All your stuff is just... there. You can access your stuff from anywhere--on the web, in your home, at the office, while running errands and from all of your devices. Install Drive on your Mac, PC, Android phone and tablet, iPhone and iPad.
Search everything. Search by keyword and filter by file type, owner and more. Drive can even recognize text in scanned documents and images without any text at all.

"Some Competition"
Version: Google Drive
Pros
-Collaboration
-Storage Space (5 GB)
-The Suite itselfCons
-No Desktop Suite program
-Not compatible with OfficeSummary
This is an outstanding program and file storage system. The collaboration is great, the suite online is great, and the storage space is great. But there is no desktop suite program, which makes in incompatible with Microsoft Office.
Google Drive is definitely going to have some competition with SkyDrive, Microsoft's online suite. SkyDrive features Microsoft Office Web Apps, 7 GB of free space, and the ability to sync with your computer with Microsoft Office 2010. Although Google Drive has better collaboration methods, this does not make it better. And even iWork from Apple is starting to grow. iWork is the easiest to use because if you have an iPhone and a Mac, everything syncs with iCloud.
Bottom line: I believe Microsoft Office is still the leader in productivity suites, but Google Drive is definitely a contender. It's possible that if the Mac grows, iWork and iCloud will also grow. I know this review was supposed to be mainly about Drive, but I had to mention Microsoft and Apple. -
"Doesn't work for multiple Windows accounts!"
Version: Google Drive
Pros
fair sync program, nothing special though
Cons
Doesn't work for multiple Windows accounts! It installs centrally in C:\Program Files, but if you switch user it simply crashes!! Unbelievable. You would think they can hire some testers with those billions they make each year.
Summary
Stay with e.g. Dropbox.

"Lots of potential"
Version: Google Drive
Pros
Easy to use, stable, reliable.
Cons
Slow uploads.
No drives syncing - that is, to choose folders to keep up to date online. Would be a wonderful feature instead of forcing me to use my Shared Drive as my default drive all the time.Summary
Does a fine job but the lack of folder syncing is a problem for this and other similar products (Dropbox, Skydrive etc.)
