Collaborative work with students has improved but storage limitations and support issues remain
We have Google Workspace, and we use it primarily for Drive to collect items. We categorize folders with topics and material either for students or for research. We use Google Doc to share documents, especially when we assign homework to be corrected for peer correction or classroom correction. With Teams and Microsoft, we use it for collective calls and exam supervision because we use video surveillance through camera with Teams. We use Teams for meetings and to share material with students. The ability to share documents with students and assign them things and correct them in real time has been beneficial. You can verify what they write, and they can contribute and cooperate to create a collective document, which is something that our society nowadays requires. The ability to cooperate, especially those who work with languages and those who work with writing, need to learn how to cooperate. There is co-editing and co-writing, all these sorts of things. I love the fact that I can easily have access to folders that I can categorize and where I can upload research material and teaching material.

Data restoration is the most valuable feature.
If I access my documents from the mobile app, I am also able to share these documents with accounts in other apps such as email, WhatsApp, Dropbox, google drive, etc. What I'd like is to be able to share a document or folder with other Mozy accounts (users), with limits of either under the same admin domains or even with other domains.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution offers a workflow where we can collaborate and share documents. Its most valuable features are Gmail and Google Drive. Google Drive is great for file collaboration. It improves productivity. The product is on the cloud; we don't have to connect to the office through a VPN."
"We switched our company from an Intermedia Exchange server to Gmail for Business and I am extremely happy with the results."
"Google seems to be a more stable environment than our current on-premise Microsoft solution that we're replacing."
"It's a secure solution that enables you to choose those you wish to share with."
"It was much easier and cheaper for us than most email solutions as we didn’t have to worry about anything except setting up users."
"The general ease of use is the solution's most valuable aspect. It's extremely simple to use. You don't even have to look up videos in order to figure things out. It's all very intuitive."
"Good search features, reliable storage, and quick thinking."
"G Suite Enterprise provides many features, such as business increased search visibility, email address, and domain. It's a large whole ecosystem that is the major benefit. You can manage your whole team and have many tools. Over seven years, the solution has gone through some drastic upgrades and improvements which are done automatically, I do not have to manual upgrade."
"The data restoration feature is the most valuable because the end user requires minimum support to recover lost data."
"I was using Symantec Backup Exec, and we switched because Mozy is easier to use, and the cost is less."
"The ability to kick start the service live on the users machine; I also like the graphical representations of data space."
"I've had good experience with the Mac backup client running silently and keeping files backed up."
 

Cons

"The administration aspect, including the UI and implementation, could be simplified and made more user friendly."
"The only inconvenience is the fact that you have limited storage. After a while, you have to buy a surplus."
"There seems to be a bit of vulnerability on some operating systems, specifically on the iPhone. There isn't as much control as if a person is using an Android. That's a bit of a concern."
"Google Workspace needs to be more flexible, like Microsoft Excel."
"The solution needs to be more user-friendly and improve its tools and features."
"I would rate the stability a five out of ten."
"G Suite is not as powerful as Microsoft Office Suite, so sometimes we have to change to Excel and PowerPoint."
"Google Meet can have a bit more functionality."
"The support staff were directed to give support on specifics and to stick to the support plan; anything out of the ordinary would be a challenge."
"The sales support is too poor and there is no point of contact, local representatives are not in positions to assist or even provide a proposal."
"Automated client deployment was not straightforward and never worked for me."
"The selection of directories and files to back up can't be managed centrally, it has to be set on each user's computer."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Licensing costs are on a yearly basis."
"Approximately $6 per user, per month."
"It's cheaper to run a couple of users in a Google platform than what it would be with Microsoft Exchange."
"I rate Google Workspace's pricing five to six out of ten. We do not pay any extra costs."
"We receive value for the price that we pay."
"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."
"Traffic management tools may be required for larger setups and should be included in any pricing calculations."
"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."
