Key Google Workspace advancements to boost efficiency

Google’s file editing apps (Docs, Sheets, and Slides) enable real-time multi-person collaboration with numerous features that streamline communication, including collaborator cursor visibility, integrated commenting and suggestions with notifications, in-text mentions of people and files, built-in chat, task assignment, approval requests, and comprehensive revision history.

The integrated Google Calendar will forever transform how your team operates. Now, all processes will be transparent and visible to everyone who needs to know them.
Sharing calendars with colleagues, enabling client appointment booking, finding mutually convenient meeting times, and easily reserving company cars and conference rooms – these are just some Google Calendar features that not only boost work efficiency but also help you maintain control over what’s happening within your company.

With cloud-based storage your team has everything in one place. No matter which device they log in from, all the assets will be there, exactly as they left them.
In addition to up to 5 TB of personal storage, each Google Workspace user can also share files on shared drives, which are designated data spaces accessible to multiple individuals. This eliminates the time wasted on requesting file access.

Google Workspace is designed for seamless integration with the external tools your company already uses. This includes CRM platforms like Salesforce and HubSpot, project management tools such as Asana and Trello, and communication platforms like Slack. This connectivity streamlines workflows, centralizes information, and enhances overall productivity by eliminating the need to switch between disparate systems.

Unlock productivity in every team

See how Google Workspace apps can be used by different departments across your company.

Sales department

With Google Workspace your sales team will be more effective. The ability for clients to book appointments directly in their calendars streamlines scheduling. Mobile access to company resources facilitates on-the-go work, while Gmail's CRM integration ensures they always have everything under control.

Marketing

Interactive whiteboards will help your team discuss any campaign ideas. The Adobe Creative Cloud add-on will accelerate graphic designers' work and the approval of their designs. And when everything is ready, you can conveniently manage and analyze campaigns in Sheets or Docs, where AI will create a summary of the results.

Accounting

Every Google Workspace plan includes Google Sheets, an ideal tool for accountants and analysts. It allows for database creation, charting, results analysis, and rapid complex calculations. Extensive spreadsheets can be linked with other Google tools like Looker for easier data analysis and faster insights – now further enhanced by AI features.

HR

Google Meet makes conducting remote interviews much easier for HR specialists. They can utilize Forms to create and distribute assessment tasks to candidates, and Calendar helps efficiently manage numerous interview schedules. Once the hiring process concludes, contracts can be securely signed remotely using integrated features within Google Docs.

Regardless of the subscription you choose, each Google Workspace package includes the following applications to work, create and communicate: Gmail, Drive, Chat, Meet, Calendar, Keep, Forms, Sheets, Docs, Slides, Sites, Admin and AppSheet. Each plan also has built-in artificial intelligence tools, namely Gemini (Google AI). You can learn more about this on our Google Workspace page.

The Google Workspace suite is available in four subscription plans. They mainly differ in the amount of cloud storage provided for each user (this value ranges from 30 GB to as much as 5 TB of cloud storage). Moreover, lower-tier plans may lack certain application features, such as online meeting recording, advanced shared drive capabilities, or the option for customers to book appointments in Calendar. You can read more about this on the page where we compare Google Workspace plans and pricing.

The fact that Google Workspace applications are cloud-based tools means that they are not installed on computers or other devices. Instead, the data is located online and is accessible from anywhere with internet access. They are used via a browser or mobile applications. In other words, all files, emails, and other data created and used in Google Workspace applications are saved on Google's servers, not on a local hard drive. This allows you to access them from any internet-connected device. Moreover, multiple people can work on the same document, spreadsheet, or presentation simultaneously and see the changes being made in real-time.

Google regularly commissions independent companies to conduct studies to determine how the implementation of Google Workspace tools in an organization has affected team work. We have recently compiled the most important figures from several reports and presented them in an easy-to-understand infographic, which you can find here.

The tools meet all the security requirements necessary for companies where special restrictions apply to the protection of processed information. Data is encrypted both at rest and in transit, and system uptime is guaranteed by an SLA of 99.9999%.
