Assosiate Professor at Palazzo del Mediterraneo
With Gemini, I was charged for a year without receiving any guidance on its usage.

Sentiment score
7.3
Nasuni offers scalable, user-friendly data storage, efficiently meeting diverse organizational needs and supporting physical or virtual deployments.
I believe Google Workspace will have really high scalability because there are a lot of features available, and they have the potential to be used.
Brand Protection Analyst at Corsearch
It supports around 2,500 users in our company, and this scalability assists us in maintaining our infrastructure.
Technical Manager IT Development at Sostenia
If webinars were provided and universities were promoted with webinars, people are going to attend them.
Assosiate Professor at Palazzo del Mediterraneo
I rated the scalability as seven because even though the solution can scale, load balancing must be done manually, as it's not automated.

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
7.7
Google Workspace is praised for its stability and reliability, with minor glitches but no significant downtime, affecting user experience.
Sentiment score
8.2
Nasuni is praised for its stability, offering reliable performance, minimal maintenance, and flexibility with virtually no downtime issues.
With Microsoft now that we are using, we have a security system by which every now and then you have to change your password, and whenever you try to access multiple times to the same email from different devices or many times in the same day, they will ask you for a code that you have to insert.
Assosiate Professor at Palazzo del Mediterraneo
The stability of Google Workspace is excellent and very solid.
Principal Consultant at Wipro Limited
This stability is crucial to us because it ensures we do not lose communication or connection while using messaging and accessing files.
Technical Manager IT Development at Sostenia
 

Room For Improvement

Google Workspace needs better security, Microsoft integration, usability improvements, and enhanced features compared to competitors like Zoom and Teams.
Nasuni struggles with cloud integration, performance, and user experience, needing improvements in data retention, security, and analytics.
It would be great if Google Workspace had its own application built into the PC or a desktop application.
Brand Protection Analyst at Corsearch
The new integration was implemented last September, and we are facing some issues with OAuth 2.0 authentication.
IT Manager at Universal Carpets & Rugs
The security functionalities are similar to those in competitors like Active Directory, but they could be optimized for stronger security features.
Technical Manager IT Development at Sostenia
I suggest Nasuni improve their syslog forwarders to support TCP protocol, as it's more secure than UDP, which is plain text and not protected at all.
Infrastructure Architect at a energy/utilities company with 10,001+ employees
 

Setup Cost

Google Workspace costs $6-$15 per user monthly; perceived as cost-effective yet sometimes costly, with potential discounts and additional fees.
Nasuni offers competitive pricing with flexible cloud compatibility, licensing per terabyte, and cost-effective enterprise solutions.
The current cost is approximately seven to ten euros per user per month.
Technical Manager IT Development at Sostenia
The company is moving the data and the Microsoft subscription is no longer continued.
Brand Protection Analyst at Corsearch
I prefer solutions with lower pricing.
Infrastructure Architect at a energy/utilities company with 10,001+ employees

Google Workspace enables seamless collaboration with real-time editing, robust integration, strong security, and affordability for businesses and organizations.
Nasuni provides scalable cloud-based file management with global file locking, data security, and efficient disaster recovery features.
The ability to share documents with students and assign them things and correct them in real time has been beneficial.

They can access different teams from anywhere, collectively putting files, sharing them, and managing them.

I think the most valuable feature is Gemini, which is now included in Google Workspace.

Assosiate Professor at Palazzo del Mediterraneo
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.

Cloud data management that achieves cost efficiency with advanced data protection features
I am currently using Nasuni for seismic data. We have a huge data size, and we want to reduce costs. Nasuni acts as a caching solution, so we put some data into the cache, and the rest goes to the blob, which helps us save on costs. We use it for applications like Petrol and Tech Log, where 3D…
