Find out in this report how the two Email Applications solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The implementation was very easy."
"The most valuable part of G Suite is the integration among all of the components. It's also highly reliable because it's always available. And G Suite's ability to collaborate on all the standard office tools has no rival. It's amazing because you can work seamlessly with any of your colleagues on the same document."
"The most valuable feature of Google Workspace is its ease of use and stability."
"Good performance, even on relatively slow connections; no local apps required."
"The security and privacy policies of G Suite make it efficient, and the organizational data is secure."
"The user interface is fantastic. It's also available for the individual person, so that's also a great thing about it."
"I like everything that Google does. They have good products."
"If I'm addressing certain emails from banks — automatic emails, like OTP, etc. — I can create rules and forward that OTP to the specific email IDs. You can create rules and deliver mail to different groups using the forwarding feature. It's handy."
"An effective, functional, very good tool for controlling resources."
"The groupware module is the most valuable feature."
"The most valuable feature of IceWarp is the chat rooms and file-sharing, they are useful. It is convenient that everything is in one place. You can easily share and collaborate documents, making the program's unity a significant advantage."
"The solution's voice services work well for our company."
"IceWarp has multiple applications that are easy to use for many people."
"The product is used very extensively in my company since we have around 1,500 users using it. Also, there is no requirement for any administrators to manage the product by the people who own the solution."
"The solution has a very good log-in to the UI when compared to other solutions."
"It's scalable and stable."
"The synchronization is a bit of an issue."
"The solution could improve by having more frequent updates."
"Scalability is not as good as we would like."
"Google Mail's spam filter needs improvement. If I'm sending mail to another email user, sometimes it goes to the spam folder, and they won't know unless they check because they aren't seeing it in the primary inbox. They may miss important emails. At the same time, I'm receiving spam that shouldn't go to my inbox."
"The solution is not user-friendly and it doesn't integrate that well with Microsoft Office, which is one of the bigger business apps on the market, compared to Google Sheets and applications of that sort."
"I'm not sure if Google Drive has a customizing feature, however, if it did, then it would be better."
"What needs improvement in Google Workspace is the Google Drive app, in particular, making the process of finding the shared and most used files and folders easier. The first time you get an invite to view a file or folder in Google Drive and you view that folder or file, it's pretty easy, but the next time you try to access it again, sometimes, it's a bit difficult to find what was shared with you. An additional feature I'd like to see in Google Workspace is the option to un-send messages in Gmail. Microsoft has a message recall feature, and this isn't available in Gmail, so it's the feature I'd like to be added to Gmail."
"It would be nice to have additional software, such as Microsoft Teams, since our basic edition, Google Meet, cannot record video."
"The tool's configuration capabilities are not straightforward. Apart from that, if I want to archive emails into a vault so that they can be retrieved again later, the integration doesn't work, and IceWarp crashes."
"Our customers sometimes have problems receiving mail."
"Support should be improved. Most of the time, the queries are not resolved within the SLA."
"The exchange compatibility mode is rather limited. Their technical support can also be better. They only provide online support, and there should be some option for escalating."
"Although the documentation is extensive and in depth, you must familiarize yourself with it before taking full advantage of the product."
"With multiple databases for VOIP, chat and web IMAP, maintenance is cumbersome."
"I would like to have a trial for mobile applications and more documentation similar to Google Drive with mobile applications."
"It is difficult to disable user rights on the console so some users accidentally delete their documents or user details."
