CDW Amplified for Education’s Gopher for Drive provides a quick and easy way to understand storage consumption in your domain and gain insights into your largest footprint users. Like our other Gopher tools, Gopher for Drive is a Sheets add-on.
With Google Workspace limits, now is a great time to monitor user and domain usage to see where you land on the usage scale. Monitoring your utilization, especially overutilization, will help you know where to curb your cloud storage usage.
Gopher for Drive gives Super Admins the power to generate reports on:
- Overall storage used within the org as an aggregate
- Total storage used by up to 100,000 individuals
- Detailed individual storage usage
- All shared drives within the organization
- Shared drive file details
The reports can be filtered by file type and size, giving you the power to drill down on file types/sizes of concern on the domain, in shared drives, or per user. For example, if you want to view only video files larger than 200 MB on a specific drive, you can do so with the Shared Drives Usage Report. You may wish to view all files over 200 MB and run the same report, but include all file types.
Storage Amounts Included/Not Included on Reports
Google counts Drive, Gmail, and Photo storage toward your Workspace limit. To help you accurately gauge your utilization toward that limit, Gopher for Drive reports on the same storage.
Note: Files smaller than 1 MB do not appear in the reports; they appear in the aggregate.
When you're ready, install Gopher for Drive.
