Overall Satisfaction with Google Workspace (formerly G Suite)
My law firm has used Google Workspace (formerly G-Suite) for over the past decade. At inception, we used Google Workspace for email and calendar functions. Over the years, our law firm has grown to use many of the other features and benefits offered by Google Workspace as they have been offered. My team primarily uses Gmail, Google Drive, Google Chat, Calendar, Google Meet, and Google Voice features. I further use Google Keep, Docs, and Sheets to complete personal tasks. Google Workspace allows our team to collaborate effectively and efficiently communicate with each other. Google Workspace eliminated any need to have a LAN Based IT system or local servers for shared servers or databases. It has allowed our staff to conduct remote work and work together from remote locations and satellite offices.
Google Workspace works on many different devices including IOS, Android, PC, and Mac computers. Our office is primarily Apple-based. Google Workspace easily integrates with Google Chrome to be accessed on a variety of devices.
Our team has increasingly used the Google Chat feature to stay in constant communication with each other. Google Chat resembles and works like Slack. Topics and conversation threads are shared in the different chat rooms to provide the team with organized instant messaging and communication.

Google Workspace's premium feature includes its professional version of Gmail and Calendar functions but for our workforce, Google Chat has evolved to be one of the primary tools for team communication and collaboration.
In terms of costs and ease of implementation, it is very hard to beat Google Workspace. The program easily works across a variety of hardware platforms so that individuals can bring their own devices and allows our team to use Apple desktops and hardware.
Google's note-keeping software KEEP is a good example of this. At the inception, Evernote was the class leader for note-taking software. Evernote's software team had a goal to make Evernote the best software program for each platform that it was designed for. Evernote had exceptional file syncing capability, but the look and feel, and functionality of Evernote changed whether you were using Evernote, on an iPad, or a phone, or a PC. The user experience was always different. Google Keep is a remarkably simple note-taking program that effectively becomes digital sticky notes to bullet journal thoughts or makes an easy-to-do list.
The software programs of Google Workspace work exceptionally well on all platforms (Mac, PC, iPhone, Android, Chromebook). The look and feel, and functionality are consistently the same.
