    Well-suited for: Fast-paced drafting ideas, docs, charts, sheets, etc. Love it for client calls as well. Google Meet runs in a web browser; you don't need to download any special software. Shared Drives are great for sharing information; the ability to add a Google Notebook to them is the icing on the cake. It is less appropriate when Wi-Fi or the internet is spotty, or when you need heavy-duty Excel macro data crunching.

    Landingi is well suited for someone who needs to put something up in a hurry, who doesn't need to know anything about web development, and for someone who doesn't need to share their pages on Facebook! Ultimately, given its price and feature set, it's more of a tool for solopreneurs or those just starting out. To me, Landingi is quite good as a "bargain" landing page builder, but I would probably recommend anyone who can afford it to choose a more polished builder.

    • Easy to share and store files in Google Drive.
    • Google Calendar is amazing, it integrates seamlessly with other Google products and it's our company's primary calendar tool.

    Cons
    Google
    • Record option to be there in Google meet
    • ability to share documents outside google accounts need to be looked at
    • Improvement in conversion to MS office based documents and converting those documents to googles format needs a little work.
    • Will be good to have a pdf to word converter and vice versa

    • Some powerful features are left out of the Core plan that would be nice to be included (such as custom fonts and icons) - while Landingi needs to have incentives to get users to upgrade plans, it does add to the barrier to entry for smaller businesses who can't afford the larger plans right away.

    Now that our department has used G Suite Essentials for close to 2 years, I can't imagine not using it. It has proven to be a very practical tool for sharing files / folders on a shared drive. It also makes it easy to modify and update content. It is user friendly and the interface is simple.

    Usability
    Google
    It is so easy to use, very intuitive and the site looks nice. There is no hint of the old DOS days in the look and functionality. Let's be real, Google Workspace Essentials is attractive and easy on the eyes and even offers a dark mode if you want to rest your eyes a bit or are in a mood for such

    I haven't ever reached out to Landingi support, so I really don't know what their support is like. I just didn't want to give them a lower score since I don't know how good or bad it is. They've created a great product and I haven't had any bugs or issues, and have been able to figure out how to utilize the features I'm interested in by messing around with the interface or looking at their blog posts/updates.

    Google Workspace Essentials is more robust than Dropbox with the other features that are available. Google Workspace Essentials is very comparable to Microsoft 365, and we ultimately went with Google because at the time, it was free/priced better than MS, and now we have lots of legacy files already stored on Google servers, so a switch would be too time-consuming. We went with Google Workspace Essentials over OpenOffice because of the email features of using Google.

    Landingi is more affordable and overall easier to use than ClickFunnels and, in my opinion, just as effective for most companies. As an agency, we have found great value in using a tool that is more affordable and super-fast. Overall, Landingi allows us to put pages up fast, get leads fast and optimize conversions with a couple of clicks.

    Return on Investment
    Google
    • Our fundraising and development efforts nearly doubled 2020-2022, largely in part to the organizational tools within Google Workspace Essentials.
    • We've opened up the capacity to work more closely with contractors in a more collaborative nature because of GWE's capabilities.
    • It was integral to our brand overhaul.

    • Quickly im[roves the number of leads received daily
    • We fell more confident about our page designs because they offer the option to built a secondary page deign to be tested (A/B test), so the page that converts better stays.
    • Our clients are very happy with the page built with Landingi, as well as the conversion, improving our client retention.
