TOP 10 REASONS FOR YOUR BUSINESS TO USE GOOGLE WORKSPACE

Google Workspace (formerly G-Suite) provides cutting-edge features which enhance productivity and efficiency. There are several office productivity suites out in the market. So what makes Google’s so great?

 

In this blog, we are sharing the top 10 reasons why you should choose Google Workspace for your business. It’s the preferred brand of cloud-based business solutions as it is used by over 2.6 billion people all over the world.

1. Document sharing

Collaboration is the key to success within your small business. With Google Workspace you can easily share your files with fellow team members in your Workspace account using Shared Drives. The author can control how their files can be accessed: whether it’s view-only, comment, editing permissions or full access. 

2. Increased file storage

File storage is becoming a problem within big corporations down to small businesses. Mailbox storage tripled in size over the last three years as users need to share larger files, and retain and search through more data. Google Workspace users can store massive amounts of data in the cloud. They get up to 30GB of cloud storage unlike with limited physical devices. This enables teams to collaborate, upload large files from photos to documents, and innovate together from anywhere in real-time. Use Google Drive every day to collaborate on press and product releases, notes, sales reports, blog posts, promotion mechanics, office updates, and dozens of other documents.

3. Custom domain name

Customise your team’s business email (anything@yourcompany.com). There is no such thing as a small business when you have strong branding. Helping promote your company by having your own domain name will build trust and credibility with your customers and community. 

4. Manage your team’s email accounts and files that are owned by the company

If an employee leaves your company, you can control and access the employee’s email in Google Workspace and their files (Google Docs, Slides, Sheets). If individuals leave the company, the admin or the owner has full access to their data, unlike regular email accounts. While those who leave lose access to the files, team access continues uninterrupted.

5. Multiple email alias and domains

Google Workspace offers several benefits for multiple email alias and domains. Users can have an email address or user account at one or more domains, and Google Workspace administrators can create email aliases for a user so they can send and receive email from another address at their domain.

 

With Google Workspace, user alias domains can give users an email address at another domain, and users can add up to 30 email aliases for each user at no extra cost. Multiple domains can be set up as secondary domains or domain aliases, and can help manage multiple businesses or brands, each with their domain.

6. Single sign-in

Google Workspace offers several benefits for single sign-in (SSO). When you enable SSO, users aren’t prompted to enter a password when they try to access Google services. Instead, they are redirected to an external identity provider (IdP) to authenticate. Google Workspace lets you configure SSO by using SAML profiles for each IdP that you want to integrate with.

 

This feature makes it easier for users to access Google services and reduces the risk of password-related security issues. Additionally, Google Workspace provides unlimited storage for its Business, Enterprise, and Teams editions, ensuring that users always have enough space for their files

7. Customised user interface

​Google Workspace​​ offers a customized​​ user interface​​ that can be tailored​​ to the needs​​ of individual​​ users. Through​​ quick settings​​, users can customize​​ the interface​​ to include the​​ apps most important​​ to them, whether​​ it’s Gmail by​​ itself or a combination​​ of Gmail, Chat​​, Spaces, and​​ Meet.

 

This​​ makes it easier​​ to stay on top​​ of what’s important​​ and reduces the​​ need to switch​​ between various​​ applications​​, windows, or​​ tabs. Additionally​​, Google Workspace​​ provides a variety​​ of features that​​ make it easy​​ for businesses​​ to operate safely​​ and effectively​​, including the​​ ability to work​​ in new ways that​​ support hybrid​​ and remote work​​ environments.

8. Seamless experience across devices

Signing in is simple, regardless of whether you are operating on Microsoft, Mac or Android. Google Workspace allows users to store and share in the cloud, synchronizing files across all your connected devices, and connecting you in real-time.

 

Teams could access Google’s powered business tools on mobile devices as required. Connecting employees, partners, and customers face-to-face improves responsiveness to queries.

9. Added security

Work securely anytime, anywhere. Google Workspace has added 2-step verification for users. If you log in to Workspace or other related applications using another computer, Google will text you your verification code which you would input to the verifier. This is very important in securing the cloud backup particularly if it contains sensitive files.

10. 24/7 Support

Google has 24/7 support for their Workspace users. You can access the support team by phone, email or through their chat option. For further instructions on contacting Google support, see here.
