Google Workspace

Formerly G Suite

Google Workspaces helps you to synchronize every single inbox into one space and then organize it by filters or labels but sometimes it's time-consuming because it needs you to move the unto different applications depending on what you're working on instead of spending it on finishing your tasks that needs to be done that day.

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 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.

Google Workspace is a simple to use messaging and collaboration platform that is universal between most electronic devices for ease of use. Platform administrators should feel comfortable with the various enterprise levels of security that can be configured. Extra training is needed for those in Executive Admin type roles in dealing with the Executives that they support.

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.

If you are a small business and need a good email host, there are not many other solutions as robust and easy to use as Google Workspace. Having an entire suite of tools that work across all of your devices is definitely a plus. I don't think all of the tools under Google Workspace are as powerful to use as MS Word, and Excel. I do love how well Google Workspace integrates with my android phone. I don't know what I would do without it. But, I also hate Workspace. I have many Nest devices that are crippled because Workspace does not support many of the features. None of my nest cams will work with Workspace. Even the cam on my Nest Hub Max will not work if you have a Workspace account. Same thing with the Nest Thermostat. I had to set up a separate Gmail account to use some of my devices, but this is not a good solution because you will no longer have access to your calendar, email, and added services such as Spotify. It is really sad that Google cripples their Nest devices to customers that actually pay for their services.

Google Workplace is well suited in a team environment and especially for remote teams. It is even good for the solopreneur. Where it isn't good is with companies that are still working in the old school way of doing things, who have not embraced the cloud approach to work.

As a solopreneur with fewer resources, Google Workspace helps me look more professional to peers and clients. It gives me lots of options and is easy to use both internally and externally. Plus, it's affordable! I also use it as a freelancer and contractor for others when they prefer to give me an account/email and let me work as part of a team. And I am also a part-time employee of another small business of about 80 employees, and we use and love it. In all instances, we all receive a lot of value and it is versatile enough to use across all kinds of organizations.

It is well suited for any smaller company needing a suite of communication and collaboration tools. It makes sharing and collaborating with peers across platforms easy. It was perfect for our company's needs. I have heard that moving to Outlook is more of a mature move for a larger company, but honestly I think Google Workspace would function just as well if not better at the enterprise level.

Google Workspace [(formerly G Suite)] is especially well suited for managing corporate email, calendars, and documents. Making use of Docs, Sheets, and Slides make it especially easy to collaborate with teammates and the ability to store everything within Drive allows access from anywhere. An active internet connection is required for such operations so working offline is a no go and traditional client apps would be better.

[Google Workspace (formerly G Suite) is] extremely well suited to startups, small orgs etc with low barrier to entry and many productivity features.
While still useful for larger enterprises, existing larger orgs may find it challenging to migrate to a new solution, particularly if you are a Microsoft-heavy org. Office365 has less barrier to entry for these orgs due to app familiarity of Office, Excel etc. While Google have good alternatives in Docs, Sheets, Slides etc re-training of employees is required and it would be a cultural shift.

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.

When your work requires constant and effortless document collaboration then I cannot think of anything better than Google Workspace. The seamless experience of creating documents or spreadsheets and being able to share/grant access with as many or as few participants is a gamechanger for an urban working environment.

The pricing could be more flexible especially for organizations that are initially starting out and do not have sufficient funds. More flexible pricing will eventually attract more startups or groups of users to adopt google workspace over its competitors.

Google Workspace is ideal for companies of any size and geographic configuration. Their billing structure is easy to understand and it's easy to get set up. All the apps work as soon as you log in so setup is extremely easy especially for companies just signing up or enterprises migrating from on-prem or hybrid setups to a full cloud solution.

If you're a nonprofit you get the core suite for free, which is a huge deal since the cost savings mean any nonprofit can get set up with no risk.

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.

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!

Frankly Google Workplace is suited for organizations of 1 to 10,000 and beyond. I understand that much of the same functionality can be had for free with Gmail. However, for the low cost of Google Workspace, it's worth it to have a more professional email that includes your domain. So I suppose the only scenario I can think of where it wouldn't be appropriate is for a business that perhaps very temporary.

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.
