IT Manager at Universal Carpets & Rugs

Email collaboration and accessibility have improved team productivity

The valuable features include the email service, email updates, and Google Drive. People are given email access to Google Drive. The team can share manual files and work accordingly. They can access different teams from anywhere, collectively putting files, sharing them, and managing them. Additionally, the manufacturing product does not require any downgrades. It works fine and continuously for the last three or four years. Users can access their emails from anywhere in their browser without a laptop or can directly access from Gmail. This is helpful for salespeople.

Reliable platform that integrates well with different IT infrastructures and systems

The product integrates well with different IT infrastructures and systems in the telecom sector. Our partners manage services, including detailed integration and migration-related operations. The platform upholds the uptime and reliability of our business applications. We classify our systems into different tiers, ranging from machine-critical to business-critical, and FusionStorage helps us run all the services. It delivers a remarkable uptime of 99.9%. With our expectations for continuous service availability, we are operating 24/7. In cases where system interruptions occur, it enables rapid restoration, ensuring a prompt return to normal service levels. I rate it an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"Ability to co-edit and collaborate on content."

"Everything is synchronized across every single device you use to access G Suite. That is why we like it."

"The document sharing in which multiple people can work on the same document. To go along with that is the archiving of documents. If you mess up a document, it's easy to go get a previous version."

"The valuable features include the email service, email updates, and Google Drive."

"The corporate email feature on Google's Gmail is fantastic."

"The solution is very stable."

"G Suite is a powerful suite of tools for messaging and collaboration that has met the fundamental needs of my company, both increasing productivity and reducing costs."

"The product is user-friendly and knows how to appeal to a user. Google Docs accepts some of our requirements. Its most valuable feature is performance. The product's integrations are good."

More Google Workspace pros

"Huawei FusionStorage does well in its basic functions and offers broad utility."

"The product has a very simple GUI-based management platform and it is very simple to use. There is a very easy step-by-step configuration procedure that guides you through, and you can configure it very easily."

"It is a stable solution."

"In cases where system interruptions occur, it enables rapid restoration, ensuring a prompt return to normal service levels."

"The solution’s most valuable feature is its performance."

"Provides easy access to our data."

Cons

"With the Internet of Things, a platform that integrates well with others would be even better."

"Google Mail's spam filter needs improvement. If I'm sending mail to another email user, sometimes it goes to the spam folder, and they won't know unless they check because they aren't seeing it in the primary inbox. They may miss important emails. At the same time, I'm receiving spam that shouldn't go to my inbox."

"Integration with Microsoft Outlook could be improved. The new integration was implemented last September, and we are facing some issues with OAuth 2.0 authentication."

"The product could improve the number of participants allowed in a meeting and the strength of the meetings."

"The solution is not user-friendly and it doesn't integrate that well with Microsoft Office, which is one of the bigger business apps on the market, compared to Google Sheets and applications of that sort."

"The tool should improve its on-prem capabilities to include people who are working offline. The pricing is also a challenge for both the Indian and overseas markets. The tool has a cap of 300 licenses. The product's price has also increased by 10 percent. Businesses are struggling to justify the ROI. Users cannot block emails unless they have a strong firewall."

"If your storage requirements in day-to-day work are large, then it will incur an additional cost since free storage is limited."

"One area of improvement for Google Workspace is the Google Meet functionality. Currently, users cannot upload files directly through Google Meet; instead, they have to share links via Google Drive, which adds unnecessary steps and complexity."

More Google Workspace cons

"The solution’s support could be improved."

"The product needs improvement in terms of affordability."

"Their cloud services could be improved."

"I hope for improvements in the product's processing ability and performance."

"The initial setup and installation is not that straightforward. It should be made easier and the time to install should be reduced."

"The problem with Huawei is that it generally oversells. As a principle, Huawei does not educate the partner or the end user enough to scale up their solution correctly."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is expensive."

"There are several areas where a G Suite implementation can reduce costs: lower license fees than some competing products, reduced hardware, and IT support costs."

"It's about $8.30 up a user per month."

"There are benefits that can provide a competitive advantage, e.g., improved productivity (with appropriate training), increased collaboration (with correct use of tools), flexible working - work from home or remote locations, easy to scale - fast onboarding of new employees, and ability to add and remove licenses, as required."

"I rate Google Workspace's pricing five to six out of ten. We do not pay any extra costs."

"You pay for Google Workspace based on your usage and the apps you use, but in my case, it's free, but if I used it a lot more, I'd probably need to pay. 15GB is enough for me, but I see myself upgrading and paying the additional charges for more storage regularly."

"Approximately $6 per user, per month."

"We receive value for the price that we pay."

More Google Workspace pricing and cost advice

"It is expensive but might be optimal based on the partnership."

"If one is a cheap solution and ten means it is a very expensive product, I would rate the price as two or three."
