Google Workspace

Considerations

Google Workspace is the go-to productivity suite for businesses that require email, document collaboration, and cloud storage in one package. It provides a familiar, easy-to-use interface with seamless cross-platform accessibility.

Perfect for teams relying on cloud-based collaboration

Google Workspace enables real-time editing and sharing of files, making it ideal for teams that frequently collaborate on documents, spreadsheets, and presentations. The integration between Gmail, Drive, and Meet creates a centralised workspace.

Scalability and business-grade security

From small teams to enterprises, Google Workspace provides enterprise-level security, role-based access control, and compliance features, making it a solid choice for organisations needing secure data management.

Lacks advanced task management

While Google Workspace includes basic task management with Google Tasks and Keep, it does not replace full project management tools like ClickUp or Asana. Businesses requiring structured workflows and automation should integrate it with dedicated project management software.

Subscription costs scale with users

Google Workspace operates on a per-user pricing model, which can become expensive as teams grow. Businesses must weigh the cost against alternative cloud-based office solutions like Microsoft 365.

Best for:

  • Teams needing a cloud-based productivity and communication suite.
  • Businesses that rely on real-time document collaboration.
  • Organisations requiring secure file storage, email, and admin controls.
