We performed a comparison between Google Workspace and Microsoft Intune based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Google, Microsoft, Zimbra and others in Email Applications."The most valuable features are the speed at which G Suite Enterprise works."
"It's certainly easier to meet. We have offices around the world and the ability to have a company meeting on Google Meet platform makes it a whole lot easier to actually have everybody virtually in one room at the same time."
"When it comes to email, Google has a very good anti-spam engine or solution. We get very less spams. We don't have to use an external anti-spam solution with this."
"I like the capabilities for collaboration on any platform. For example, I might be on an iPad whereas the person next to me is on a laptop and the person next to them is on their phone. We can all collaborate together and update documentation in real-time."
"The user interface is fantastic. It's also available for the individual person, so that's also a great thing about it."
"Extremely reliable, providing great collaboration features."
"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."
"The solution offers very good email. It's a very good email provider."
"The features I found most valuable in Intune are its user visibility and troubleshooting options."
"One of the most valuable aspects of Microsoft Intune is its seamless integration with Azure Active Directory, offering capabilities akin to Group Policy Objects."
"While I don't think you can ever have full visibility and control, Intune certainly allows us to see the applications being used and tells us if things like Windows patches aren't applied to machines. It does a good job. That visibility makes life a little easier."
"The stability of Microsoft Intune is good."
"The stability is good."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Intune is having all our devices compliant with our policies."
"The tool's most valuable feature is Autopilot."
"We can manage and standardize security across your environment, identify problems, receive alerts, and so on. That's its purpose, and that's also why it's so good."
"The product could improve the number of participants allowed in a meeting and the strength of the meetings."
"Improvements to G Suite would be the ability to collaborate more easily and better quality video compression in Google Meet."
"With the Internet of Things, a platform that integrates well with others would be even better."
"The UI could be simplified and made more user friendly."
"The synchronization is a bit of an issue."
"Google needs to improve its support."
"For Google Docs, if you upload a Word document up to Google Docs, it could mess up your formatting quite a bit."
"Google Workspace has limitations as a document or file management system. Without a workspace account, manual actions are required to perform tasks such as managing groups of people. Additionally, managing permissions individually is a time-consuming and inefficient process. It's difficult to articulate, but the process is not very streamlined."
"The add-ons must be integrated into the solution."
"It would be good if, in addition to the minimal patching and compliance, we could also use Intune for application deployment. For instance, if a device is not patched, Intune should have the ability to push not only a Microsoft patch but also other patches, such as a browser patch."
"There can be more logs. I do not have any other requirements."
"It doesn't economize when you scale up. We have over 14,000 employees, and we have between 7,500 and 8,000 city-owned or personal devices being used to conduct city business. Its price can be improved. It is not a cheap solution."
"The pricing can be expensive if you are not combining it with other products."
"They should make it easier to order it, however, that's generally true for everything from Microsoft."
"They should improve its compatibility with other operating systems such as iOS and Linux. It supports Linux but they still need to work on the iOS part."
"There is no catalog for mobile access management (MAM) security."

I agree with @Saiyed Shahab Ahmed. You should also consider the management overhead of having multiple productivity tools.
Intune is more recommended for Microsoft OS or Microsoft products. On Chromebooks, if you are going with Google tech stack of Office apps, Google Workspace will be your go-to option in this case.
