Google Workspace vs IceWarp vs Microsoft Exchange Online comparison

"The most valuable part of G Suite is the integration among all of the components. It's also highly reliable because it's always available. And G Suite's ability to collaborate on all the standard office tools has no rival. It's amazing because you can work seamlessly with any of your colleagues on the same document."

"The valuable feature of Google Workspace is its integrated environment where everything is pre-integrated, like chat and document sharing in Gmail."

"Good search features, reliable storage, and quick thinking."

"We value the collaboration levels that are offered. Having everything integrated in a single platform is a dream come true for us."

"The solution is very stable."

"The most beneficial feature is Gmail, which we use extensively."

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

"The initial setup is simple."

"It's scalable and stable."

"An effective, functional, very good tool for controlling resources."

"The most valuable feature of IceWarp is the chat rooms and file-sharing, they are useful. It is convenient that everything is in one place. You can easily share and collaborate documents, making the program's unity a significant advantage."

"The groupware module is the most valuable feature."

"The solution's voice services work well for our company."

"The solution has a very good log-in to the UI when compared to other solutions."

"The solution is easy to manage and includes features such as smart documents and the archiving of user data."

"Its price is the most valuable. It is definitely one of the lowest price solutions."

"Stability has increased exponentially since 2010."

"The initial setup was straightforward."

"Technical support is helpful."

"When you used to write to someone, you would often begin typing their name and their email address would appear; you would simply click and you would have the correct email address. That has been working for a while, but having the location address appear was a pleasant surprise. It was amazing."

"A valuable feature of the solution is its global usability."

"It is for emails, and it seems to work okay."

"It is a reasonable solution."

"It is a fantastic solution."

"I have had issues with my Google Address Book. I have an address book and it is available to everyone, but I cannot add additional users. In Microsoft Outlook, I could easily share certain contacts with other members of my team, but I cannot do so on G Suite."

"The user interface, especially on Google Drive, could be better."

"I believe Google Drive has potential for improvement. Enhancements could be made in terms of synchronization and the functionality of the Google Sheets app, particularly in areas like formulas and pivot tables, to make it more comparable to Microsoft Excel. Google Chat needs to make improvements so that we can send Excel and PDFs from the mobile app itself. I would like to see Google Bard integrated with the product."

"I would rate the stability a five out of ten."

"I believe that Sheets could have a more functional and user-friendly interface. Google Sheets currently lacks macros and cross file links which can be found in Excel."

"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 solution could improve by having more frequent updates."

"Google Workspace does a pretty good job, so it doesn't have that much room for improvement, but what would make it even better is if its apps, for example, Gmail, could integrate with more apps, such as Evernote and specific cloud-based platforms."

"Although the documentation is extensive and in depth, you must familiarize yourself with it before taking full advantage of the product."

"Although it is not a tool, video conferencing should be scalable and operate in a professional and efficient way."

"Our customers sometimes have problems receiving mail."

"It is difficult to disable user rights on the console so some users accidentally delete their documents or user details."

"I would like to have a trial for mobile applications and more documentation similar to Google Drive with mobile applications."

"With multiple databases for VOIP, chat and web IMAP, maintenance is cumbersome."

"The tool's configuration capabilities are not straightforward. Apart from that, if I want to archive emails into a vault so that they can be retrieved again later, the integration doesn't work, and IceWarp crashes."

"The solution should improve the mailing list feature. Google has a similar feature where you can automate sending files to different people in a sequence, but that feature is no longer available in the current version of IceWarp. Other features may also have been removed in the current version."

"For non-technical people, some configurations might be a little bit difficult. We can use it on our laptops or our portable devices like mobiles and others gadgets, but we have had repeated problems with syncing. That is, when using different gadgets and devices, there are issues with syncing. The configuration could definitely be improved."

"When initially setting up, it took a bit of time because we had a lot of PST files with the users, and we had to migrate them batch by batch."

"The deployment is complex and has room for improvement."

"It is tricky to integrate Microsoft Exchange Online if you are in an infrastructure provided by other vendors."

"Microsoft needs to lower the price of the extra production add-ins for Exchange Online."

"The cost is very high, and not every customer can afford licenses."

"We use different software for email spoofing filters and similar functions because Exchange is quite limited in this area."

"I feel that there is a need for improvement in the product, considering that there are some concerns with the tool's integration capabilities."

"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."

"The pricing is very high, although I cannot tell if this is the result of the Indian vendors artificially inflating it."

"The pricing is a bit on the higher side than normal. For a basic Google account it costs $100, but Enterprise is %150."

"The main challenge regarding startups with identity services is you could be on a platform that works well but the services are expensive. For example, Microsoft Azure costs approximately $30 per user which is expensive. You end up choosing a different platform, such as G Suite Enterprise because it is priced reasonably and is less expensive than other solutions."

"I can't recall the exact pricing per user for Google Workspace, but I know it's not that expensive. I'm in a mid-sized company that's able to maintain and afford Google Workspace, so it has competitive pricing, and I would rate its price as four out of five."

"The price per client within the business is too high."

"There are different versions of the solution available, such as premium."

"Traffic management tools may be required for larger setups and should be included in any pricing calculations."

"I would rate the pricing and eight out of ten."

"Our licensing is on a yearly basis. There were no additional costs."

"Price-wise, it's a cheaper solution, without a doubt. Price is the reason we are still using the tool."

"I don't see any challenges for the Indian market. For example, 1 GB is available for around 399 INR, and 2 GB for 499 INR. They offer a range of plans, from basic to professional and enterprise, with multiple features. IceWarp's aggressive pricing is competitive compared to other market solutions like Zoho and Microsoft. One significant advantage is that IceWarp does not impose user capping like Google and Microsoft, which allows for substantial cost savings and flexibility in user conversion."

"Costs far less than other solutions."

"The solution is priced well."

"The solution is inexpensive which is its main benefit."

"Pricing and licensing is very competitive and in some cases, cheap."

"The solution costs $12 to $16 per user per month."

"This is an expensive solution."

"It is a reasonable solution."

"The price of Microsoft Exchange Online security could improve. The overall price of the solution is reasonable."

"The cost is around $12 to $16 per user."

"The pricing is based on a yearly contract and a floating license option is offered."

"Microsoft Exchange Online is too expensive."

"The pricing for this solution is good. We renew our contract every three years. I would rate the pricing for this solution a three out of five."
