Out of the many benefits, here are to mention a few Salesmate provides integration with Google drive / Google Team Drive so that you can have a hassle-free management of your common business documents.īenefits of using Google Drive / Google Team Drive: Unfortunately it isn’t particularly user friendly, but applications like Filezilla (Open Source) do allow you to control the amount of bandwidth being used.Google drive is a web-based file hosting utility provided by Google which allows instant invitation to view, download, and collaborate on all the files, permissible to the user. I have tried many different methods of uploading large files on slow connections and still find for files not needing to be securely transmitted, that FTP is still the best way to go. I have not used any FTP applications to access Google Drive and I would be some what concerned about using one as ftp is not a secure protocol which frequently isn’t an issue for large media files, but it may be for the other contents of the Google Drive. I believe now that the Android version (or at least on tablets) now supports concurrent file uploading, because the Windows version doesn’t appear to. Greenlego’s suggestion of breaking up the large file into many smaller files would help, but then you may hit the other problem Google Drive seems to suffer from on Windows in Australia under utilization of the bandwidth, caused in part I suspect from Google Drive being optimized for users closer to the Google Drive servers. With large files it easily suffers corrupted uploads, takes a long time trying to resume, provides very little information about what is happening with the upload and has little/poor bandwidth management (QoS).ĭropBox is better at handling these things, but I have still not found it to be a good solution. Google Drive has a problem handling large files on relatively slow connections. Greenlego was heading in the right direction. I think Angus may have missed the whole point here.
