Collaborative tools have improved team communication and file organization across projects
Before I was in a Microsoft environment, which had its own software that was not website-based. When I moved to Google Workspace, it was not seamless because I have to access it through a web view in the browser. Most of it does not have stable connection because it is based on web view. It would be great if Google Workspace had its own application built into the PC or a desktop application. The operation is a bit different from Microsoft, which makes it difficult for me. For example, with Microsoft, we could easily access the shared mailbox with one URL and have access to it. With Google Workspace, we have to set it up by ourselves inside our own mailbox, which is a bit difficult because of how it operates differently. I think it can be improved more. Currently, guidelines are just in the form of a document that we can read by ourselves. It would be really helpful if the guidelines themselves were built into the environment itself. Since Google Workspace is in web view, maybe that would be possible. That would be more helpful than just reading a document.

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

"G Suite Enterprise is a good option for startups; it's low in cost as compared to Office 365, there is no difference, and it's a stable product."
"The solution is easy to use, and you don't need a lot of knowledge for it."
"The features of Google Workspace that significantly improve our work include real-time collaboration on documents, dynamic email for easy suggestions and approvals, integration with BigQuery for data analysis, seamless document sharing and storage in Google Drive, and advanced calendaring capabilities."
"Great for collaboration."
"Its user interface is great; it's user-friendly, you don't have to look for support when using it, and even the presentations and the docs have all the formatting available, with very good reliability, cloud sync, and great real-time editing so we can mutually work on a document."
"The solution is very intuitive."
"The solution is very stable."
"The valuable feature of Google Workspace is its integrated environment where everything is pre-integrated, like chat and document sharing in Gmail."
"The solution’s most valuable feature is its performance."
"It is a stable solution."
"In cases where system interruptions occur, it enables rapid restoration, ensuring a prompt return to normal service levels."
"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."
"This is a good solution and we haven't had any issues with it."
"Provides easy access to our data."
"Huawei FusionStorage does well in its basic functions and offers broad utility."
 

Cons

"Compared to Office 365, you lose many functionalities."
"With Microsoft, you can use it on the web version, and you can use Microsoft Outlook. Google has the web version."
"We need more functionality with Google Sheets."
"Integration with Microsoft Outlook could be improved."
"The product could improve the number of participants allowed in a meeting and the strength of the meetings."
"I don't recommend Google Workspace to others. It's expensive. Also, Google doesn't have enough oversight on their partners, so you will face some difficulties dealing with them instead of directly with Google."
"Their tool called Sheets is the counterpart to Excel but it doesn't have the same functionality that Excel would have. So usually if somebody needs to go back to Excel or Office, it's because of Excel."
"Fairly frequent performance problems."
"The initial setup and installation is not that straightforward. It should be made easier and the time to install should be reduced."
"Their cloud services could be improved."
"The product needs improvement in terms of affordability."
"I hope for improvements in the product's processing ability and performance."
"I'd like to see better product maturity including their branding on the cloud environment. Their cloud services are not up to that of AWS, Azure or Oracle cloud platforms."
"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."
"The only thing I really know about the initial setup is that currently the installation is not that straightforward."
"The solution’s support could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's low in cost as compared to Office 365. There is an annual licensing cost."
"I rate Google Workspace's pricing five to six out of ten. We do not pay any extra costs."
"The price of the solution can vary."
"Careful consideration should be given to the different licensing options and provisions should be made for additional applications that may be required for your particular business."
"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."
"The price per client within the business is too high."
"It's about $8.30 up a user per month."
"There are different versions of the solution available, such as premium."
"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."
