Google Workspace

Formerly G Suite

I used to love it back when it was google apps and gsuite, except for the partner support (PPS) which has always been absolutely diabolical and incompetent. PPS cannot be contacted by phone at all, only ticket, and it takes them weeks or months to reply to every email. It is the worst support I have ever experienced in my opinion. The tech support used to be good, but now that has gone downhill as well. They have obviously outsourced that to ..., and the support are now completely incompetent (I feel) as a result and have no idea how Google Workspace even works. This is now the case for all Google services it seems. When you contact support, you don't expect to end up providing support to them and having to explain to them how their own product works, but that is exactly what I end up doing because they are so useless. As is typical for outsourced support, you usually get nonsense replies and have to repeat the issue 10 times and tell them to read the email properly over and over again before you get any reply that is actually related to your question.

Google Workspace works perfectly smooth when used in the web based solutions provided by Google and visited through Chrome. The little hiccup happens when the apps are accessed through Apple solutions, like Safari or Apple Mail. Other than that, there are no downsides to using Google Workspace in our company.

Basic corporate needs, such as mail management for SMEs and or large enterprises are actually to get support for necessary customizations.

Google Workspace is well suited to companies that need reliability, especially for email. Having access to Google spam filters is probably the best feature Workplace offers. The chances of a phishing email landing in one of our inboxes is practically zero. External emails are also marked as such, so it is harder for a bad actor to impersonate somone from our company and breech security.

The cloud service from Google (G-Suite) has a great feature for sharing documents and working/editing them with other people. I've found that it's nowhere near as time-consuming to write copy for my clients by collaborating on the document through G-Suite. [Google Workspace] G Suite is solidly my favorite software for email management. Though it took some work to get used to, being able to mix both personal and corporate mail in one place has made me appreciate its intuitive interface.

Since our company is structured around Google Workspace at the moment, it is well suited for our entire workflow. I do have concerns though, for when it comes time for our company to have our own intranet built and how well the data migration will be from Google Workspace to that intranet that gets built.

Google Workspace is extremely appropriate for every size/scale business especially if they are remote. The ability to share, collaborate and integrate everything in your email is extremely helpful. I cannot think of a scenario where workspace would not be appropriate, maybe in a company with high level security restrictions.

All-in-one tool kit for most business applications including SSO (within google products) helps to further integrate things like Google Ads and Google My Business. Less appropriate would be things like Google Sites, as this service is very simple. With a little bit of emphasis on this, Google could potentially have a decent landing page builder on its hands that pairs nicely with Google Ads.

For mid sized companies where each user will have their own account for collaborating, sharing and using the apps and services. It is less suited if you have an existing email or separate institutional account, as the two services do not integrate well for messages. G-Suite is very user friendly and easy to adopt. The included features are robust.

Google Workspace is a solid choice for organizations of any size. We use it with a team of 250, but I also use it for side projects with small teams and even have an "organization" for my personal email. Because its tools are so ubiquitous and integrated into most any platform, there are very few scenarios in which I wouldn't recommend using it. The only places where I wouldn't see it being appropriate — and I'm completely speculating here — would be if your organization had very strict privacy or security policies.

It is very useful to use in a cloud environment, however, if you or your business works on various restricted programs, the higher level of secure cloud storage is required to remain in compliance.

Google Workspace is well suited for startup, small and medium businesses. For very large enterprises managing large users are a granular level becomes next to impossible, and instead policy based controls offered by other competitors are more effective. Workspace provides access to a number of separate product families into a single subscription, which makes it ideal for smaller companies just getting started.

For email management, which is the primary way I use it, I really like it. Of course, it was hard to shift from what I was using, but once I got used to using G Suite for email, I really liked it. I use it all day every workday and have no real complaints.

I think if you're looking for more than that, you would either need to look at other tools or look at the higher-end version of the G Suite/Workspace.

Google Workspace is well suited in environments that are OS agnostic and require a deep level of collaboration. However, if you are running an exclusive Windows/Microsoft environment, Office 365 might be a bit more appropriate. Google Workspace is all but essential for mass Chromebook management and handles Android MDM quite well, except for some obvious missing features, such as device location tracking from a centralized portal. iOS MDM features could use some improvement.

I think Google Workspace scales easily - it seems easy for our admin to provision new users. However, I wish when we added new employees, their calendars would automatically appear in my list of available calendars. Instead, I have to manually add each person, which led to some misses last year as we brought on a record 20+ new employees. And then seeing availability is also tricky. So I find calendar management less than ideal. Document collaboration is great! I love the ability to collaborate real-time on files, and now that they added the ability to upload/convert Microsoft formats, it's even better.

Google Workspace is great for setting up new users and deploying apps to a domain or group. However, the managers cannot review or manage individual user's emails or setup mass auto-responses for users or mass management of signatures.

I use Google Workspace every day, and have a personal and work email account with Google.
I especially like the ability for third party applications to link with Google Workspace. We use Trello to track a lot of our projects, sales, and research & development ideas. The fact that Google Workplace integrates with numerous other applications makes it very useful and versatile.

It is perfect for every business type and solves a lot of needs. From one login to many websites, to closely controlling what employees can access, and best of all - the domain based email service. We use it for our business and recommend it to all of our clients. It beats the pants off Office 365!

Google Workspace is great for businesses of all sizes that require ample cloud storage, simple email platform, calendar management, and simple CRM/third-party application integrations. I highly recommend Google Workspace for cloud storage and email over Office365, but there are of courses situations where both are necessary such as Excel & Word. [Where] Google Workspace could improve the most is the Sheets application. I would much prefer the formatting, pivot tables, and functions implementation to mirror Excel. Google Docs though [is] an excellent and simple document editing application. It would be nice if there were some user customization options.

All in all I've been very happy with Google Workspace and will continue to leverage for our business for the foreseeable future.

Google Workspace [(formerly G Suite)] is great for schools and small businesses. While I've never been part of a large organization (>2500 people), I imagine that some of the behind the scene changes can become increasingly difficult as you increase the number of users. There are third party apps and cloud companies that allow for some of these changes, but it would be better if it was natively available through the Google Workspace GUI.

Google Workspace is great for teams who need to build presentations and documents together. It provides all major corporate communication and file storage needs for small to medium businesses. It is well suited for digital-first teams that need to be able to work from anywhere, any time.

If you're eligible for Education or Nonprofit, absolutely give it a try. It's free, and it provides so many essential services. For businesses, I haven't found anything that has all the features of Workspace for the price. If you have a personal Gmail account and want the same for your business with management tools, then Google Workspace is absolutely the way to go.

G Suite is perfectly suited for organizations of all sizes looking for an all-in-one solution for email, calendars, contacts, user management, and cloud storage. It's an added bonus that it uses tools that our users are already familiar with (Gmail, etc.). In addition, it's not as costly as Office 365 or other comparable Microsoft subscriptions.

I recommend GSuite to clients all the time. It's a great email solution for most businesses, because it provides excellent stability and receivability, along with a bunch of additional services you don't typically find in a single package. It also integrates with pretty much everything out there that does integrations — CRMs, scheduling tools, Slack... Got a space-age microwave? It probably connects to GSuite. Just kidding. But seriously, the GSuite API is great, and nearly every SAAS developer out there integrates with it.
