Overall Satisfaction with Google Workspace (formerly G Suite)

Google Workspace is being selected as the organization collaborative tool and it was a progressive rollout from initially a few selected departments and subsequently the whole organization. Google Workspace help us to collaborate more easily through tools such as Google Drive, Google Chat and also facilitate virtual meeting via Google Meet.
  • Cloud Storage
  • Instant Messaging
  • Virtual Meeting
  • Compatibility with Microsoft Office
  • User friendliness on Google Drive File Stream
  • Capability of setting different status on Google Chat
  • Increase productivity
  • Reduce some software licensing cost
  • Allow us to explore different hardware alternatives
  • Microsoft Office 2016 (discontinued)
In terms of collaboration, I personally think that using Google Suite is better but in terms of office productivity tools, Microsoft Office is still the widely and commonly use office productivity tool. The good part about Google Sheets, Google Docs, Google Slides allow users to make amendment on the same copy instantaneously.

I think Google Workspace is well suited in an environment that require a lot of collaboration work because it allows you to facilitate things such as discussion and file sharing on one single platform. However I felt that Gmail may not be as ideal as compared to other email services offered to be used as a corporate email client.
