"It would be nice to have additional software, such as Microsoft Teams, since our basic edition, Google Meet, cannot record video."

"I talked with G Suite recently because my G Suite has a temporary block. I communicated with the G Suite representative or Google representative, and he told me that I sent a lot of emails, so my email was temporarily blocked. But I know I have not sent more than 500 emails daily to reach the limit. I sent only 5,200 emails, but unfortunately, my G Suite account was temporarily blocked for 24 hours, and then he resolved it. I think they need to improve G Suite because this temporary block is not fair."
"The product could improve the number of participants allowed in a meeting and the strength of the meetings."
"The user interface, especially on Google Drive, could be better."
"Although it is not a tool, video conferencing should be scalable and operate in a professional and efficient way."
"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."
"I would like to have a trial for mobile applications and more documentation similar to Google Drive with mobile applications."
"Support should be improved. Most of the time, the queries are not resolved within the SLA."
"It is difficult to disable user rights on the console so some users accidentally delete their documents or user details."

"Our customers sometimes have problems receiving mail."
"With multiple databases for VOIP, chat and web IMAP, maintenance is cumbersome."
