"A complete integrated environment for our business. I get Google docs, Gmail, online space, and calendar where I can easily perform all documentation, storage, and communications online."
"The initial setup is easy because it's all pre-configured."
"It's secure. It offers data security and user privacy. I use it for personal purposes. The interface is okay, and it's easy to use."
"It is quite a useful tool. It allows many people to work on a document. You can actually provide review comments and tag anybody to make the comment changes. You can also attach a document in Google Chat."
"G Suite and all of Google were the first to have a built-in multifactor authentication without needing to purchase another product."
"It is a stable platform. It is very easy to use, and most importantly, it is very easy to administer. It also gets up and running quite easily."
"The solution is easy to use, and you don't need a lot of knowledge for it."
"Good search features, reliable storage, and quick thinking."
"Great impact on project management and team collaboration."
"It's nice that it's an all-in-one solution and everything is all in one place."
"The phone VoIP product provides genuine a unified communication solution."
"I love all of the applications being interlinked. I do not have to separately work on an independent system when it comes to file storage, email, and other tools."
"It's very stable."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the integration."
"The most valuable feature of Office 365 is automatic saving. If something happens on the computer your work is saved."
"It is stable."
"To a degree, the project management service could be improved."
"We need more functionality with Google Sheets"
"With the Internet of Things, a platform that integrates well with others would be even better."
"The product could improve the number of participants allowed in a meeting and the strength of the meetings."
"Google Meet is a very good product, but it's not up to the mark if you compare it against other products like Zoom or Microsoft Teams."
"They could increase the number of third-party integrations on offer."
"The cost could be improved. It can sometimes be a bit confusing figuring out how we are actually being charged."
"The price could be reduced."
"There are some complexities to the initial setup if you use some of the more advanced features."
"Could include integration with other single sign-on solutions."
"Office 365 could allow for smoother collaboration with other companies, which is the main reason we use it. The B2B connection is something we need, like global adverse lists between two tenants or multiple users. That's what we're missing at the moment."
"Integration with other platforms can be improved."
"I started working a lot on Microsoft Teams and I find it a bit vast. It should be divided out a bit so that someone can use it for basic functionality, like audio, video, and calls. Then, if someone wants more advanced functionality for file sharing and team creation, and so on, they could use a separate app."
"Sometimes the configurations of the error troubleshooting are pretty problematic and there are a lot of issues that happen even if you follow the step-by-step guides. They can work on fixing this issue. If there are a lot of issues in your Windows or your Office or anything, you restart your PC and it works. They need to get rid of this need."
"In the next release, I would like to have a more intuitive tutorial."
"In terms of improvement, it should have tutorials when you first have the opportunity to use it, to be able to really learn it."
