Overall Satisfaction with Google Workspace Essentials

We use Google Workspace Essentials for our corporate email, calendar, documents, sheets, etc. It is used by every employee in the organization in our 14 offices. It makes collaboration easier and makes scheduling meetings very easy. It addresses all of our business collaboration and communication needs for the firm as a whole.
  • Easy to schedule meetings.
  • Chat functionality is robust.
  • Google Docs are simple to create and edit.
  • The calendar tool isn't as easy to learn as Outlook.
  • Sometimes Gchat notifications can be obtrusive.
  • Sheets
  • Docs
  • Calendar
  • Gmail
  • It allows for easier communication via email, leading to more messages being sent.
  • It allows for seamless calendar integration for users who use a personal Google calendar.
Microsoft 365 has a better calendar at times, but its interface is clunky and outdated. Google offered better cloud access, more security features, and a better user experience for employees.

Would you buy Google Workspace Essentials again?

Yes

Google Workspace Essentials is well suited to collaboration, especially on creative teams who are editing documents frequently. It makes scheduling meetings pretty simple, although it can be tough to find meeting times with five or more attendees. Google Sheets are easy to share and gate when working on confidential data or projects in progress.
