Overall Satisfaction with Google Workspace (formerly G Suite)

Google Workspace is leveraged across the agency as our primary cloud storage, email, shared docs/spreadsheets, and chat platform. We've been utilizing this system for eight going on nine years now and I have no complaints. The system is very easy to implement, add users, and manage our storage needs.
  • Cloud storage & file sharing.
  • Simple email platform.
  • Ease of use & implementation.
  • Authentication across multiple third-party applications.
  • Email cleaning & archiving could be improved.
  • Google Sheets needs functions improvements.
  • Document conversion is a bit off at times.
  • Email
  • Cloud Storage
  • Chat
  • Document Collaboration
  • Affordable
  • Simple User Management
  • Excellent Cloud Storage
  • Microsoft 365 (formerly Office 365)
Google Workspace is much easier to setup, manage, and integrate with third-party applications compared to Office 365. Though I prefer Excel & Word over Google Sheets & Docs, both are equally leveraged in the agency. I also appreciate that document collaboration with clients and outside organizations is much easier to accomplish with Google Workspace.

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.
