End your file storage woes in the Cloud with Google File Stream.

Finally a way to see all your documents in the cloud, on your computer and avoid the limitations of your hard drive, and cut down on expensive network traffic!

Google File Stream makes all your Google Drive documents appear on your computer for easy use, except they are not there! When you open a file it is downloaded to your computer, and then syncronized as you make changes back to Google Drive.

This means only your most recent, (or flagged for offline storage) files are actually on your computer. No more huge syncronization tasks when you get a new staff member, or import a load of files.

Key dates:

Google File Stream is available now Downloads: https://support.google.com/drive/answer/7329379

Google Drive sync on your computer will stop working in December 2017
