Customers get numerous innovative applications for daily office work and communication. And there’s no hardware or software to install.

Ideal for multi-cloud environments.

Companies today use multi-cloud environments to handle a wide range of business requirements. With Google Workspace, you can remain flexible and seamlessly integrate the solution into your multi-cloud strategy, such as an expansion of your hybrid cloud.

Always up-to-date – thanks to the cloud.

All documents are stored in the cloud and are synchronised there, meaning there will be no more version conflicts as a result of lots of people working on the same document. All employees are always up-to-date and can access the latest information at any time, wherever they are in the world, to easily network with colleagues.

Google Workspace includes:

• Gmail (e-mail)
• Drive (file-hosting service and cloud storage)
• Calendar
• Hangouts Meet/Chat (video conferencing and instant messaging service)
• Programs for text processing, presenting, and table calculations
• Forms (user-defined forms for surveys and questionnaires)
• Notes
• Vault (storage of data and e-discovery)
• Admin (management of users and devices) 
• Sites (creating private and public websites on Google.com)
• App Maker (create your own apps)
• Cloud Search (search features for Google Workspace content)

Meets every business need.

Thanks to the subscription models, companies only pay for the services they actually use. If new employees join your company or you need more services, they can be quickly and easily added or modified.
Companies can choose from three Google Workspace editions, the main differences being in security and admin.

Workspace Basic – For small companies.

The basic version includes all key applications for business collaboration. Cloud storage for data is 30GB.

Workspace Business – For mid-sized to large companies.

The Business Edition offers unlimited cloud storage in addition to the applications Cloud Search and App Maker. There are also more admin and security features.

Workspace Enterprise – For large companies and maximum security.

The premium version comes with all apps and solutions of the Business Edition. What’s special here are the additional security and admin features like protection against data loss, company-specific access control with enforcement of security keys, Gmail protocol analysis in BigQuery, verification reports to record user activities and Cloud Identity Premium—a platform for identity, access, application, and endpoint management.

How secure is Google Workspace?

Google Workspace provides you with a highly-available and secure solution for your business. All applications feature an integrated spam blocker and virus scanner as standard. Additionally, all data uploaded to the Google Drive benefit from 128 bit encryption (Advanced Encryption Standard). The Enterprise version features additional security and management features to make Google Workspace even more secure.
