So Amazon has followed the footstep of Microsoft. I wonder if Google will ever do the same to Google Drive (unlimited storage for Google Apps users)

- pkaye 9y agoAre you referring to G-Suite business plans which require 5 users minimum to get unlimited storage which works out to $600/year.
- johnpowell 9y agoThis isn't actually enforced. I have about 3TB on there and I am a single user.
- copperx 9y agoThe 5 user minimum is not enforced? Are you effectively paying $5/mo for GSuite?
- dawnerd 9y agoIt's 10 a month for unlimited. But to answer your question yes. I have three accounts on my business plan and it's been unlimited from the start when I was just a single user.
- _pmf_ 9y ago> This isn't actually enforced. Until it is. Then we have exactly the same situation.
- johnpowell 9y agoWith amazon doing this I am sure now all those people will be frantically signing up for Google. I am sure it will eventually happen that Google enforces the limit. And I would bet sooner rather then latter. For my personal use case it isn't a huge deal since I just use it as a back-up for work stuff, music and pictures. It is nice to know that if I am at Taco Bell and my apartment burns down I am not totally screwed. And even if the limit is enforced I will get my mom and my sister and my sisters kids accounts and call it a Christmas present. They are always running low on storage.
- dawnerd 9y agoThe good thing about Google is they've been fairly nice about grandfathering people in. Since gsuite is a business product I suspect they'll be a little more forgiving. Although it wont surprise me if they start more aggressively hunting down people using the service for plex.
- SXX 9y agoDo you think Google want to host 160TB+ for some people even at $600/year? I doubt it.
