Commonly Asked Google Docs Questions

Question

Are uploaded Google Docs files secure? 

How big can a Google Docs upload be? 

Can I share and collaborate on Google Docs files?

Answer

Uploaded files have the same privacy and security as any of your other documents in Google Docs. Additionally, the default visibility setting for uploaded files is Private.

An uploaded file or folder can be up to 10GB. If you’d like to convert a file to Google Docs format, the size limit depends on the file type. Learn more about size limits in Google Docs.

You can share any uploaded file with another person. If you’ve converted that file to Google Docs format, you can also collaborate on that doc in real-time with other people. Google Cloud Connect is also an option if you'd like to collaborate on a Microsoft Office document.
