It helps us to design and development our company intranet.

It also allows us to manage technical activities and to develop e-learning applications.

Our primary use case for this solution is collaboration but we also use it for email and the calendar. We deal with medium and large size companies. We're partners with G Suite and I'm an IT cloud manager. 

G Suite has saved the company a lot of time. There's no longer any need to download files, everything can be edited online. 

The valuable features of this solution include content co-editing, content collaboration, email searching, and calendar sharing. 

I would ideally like to see a common space in the product where all the tools are shared within the same facility, something similar to Microsoft Teams, where all solutions are provided in one site. That would be a major improvement and an additional feature that would improve the product. 

I've been using this solution for five years. 

The stability is good and it permits collaboration, but I think in the last couple of years it hasn't been as good as the Microsoft solution. 

This is a super scalable solution. When you grow, it grows with you. We have almost 3,000 users in our company. 

I've had good experience with technical support. 

We didn't previously use anything else. The migration to G Suite came from the move from on-premises to cloud, from Lotus Notes to G Suite.

The initial setup of this product is very straightforward. Deployment time depends on the number of users because the administration is different if you're implementing for a large company. We have implemented in our own company as well as for our customers. It took three months to have it perfectly fine-tuned for our company including the migration from Lotus Notes. We are integrators so we did it ourselves. We used four people to assist and they now deal with maintenance if it's required. We have IT engineers, two administrators and two other IT engineers and consultants.

I would recommend any company carry out a good profiling of the people who are going to be migrated to the solution, and to implement a good change management adoption in order to have everyone on board. If you do this you have satisfied users and they are the ones who are going to rely on the tool and get all the advantages the tool provides.

I would rate this solution a seven out of 10.

It's an amazing business solution to manage enterprise data efficiently and with ultimate privacy. All of the accounts can be easily managed by the administrator to detect malfunctions within the enterprise. 

With the help of G Suite, every process within the business can be easily linked and communicated among the employees.

The security and privacy policies of G Suite make it efficient, and the organizational data is secure.

It takes a long time to import the data from G Suite into another platform.
Also, the overall price per user is too high.

More than five years.

I did not use a different solution before this.

The price per client within the business is too high.

- Gmail for business is extremely scalable and affordable. - The 'Groups' option works beautifully for having one email that is delivered to multiple users. - Integrates very easily into Outlook and mobile devices and having access to anytime, you have internet via their online option which is convenient.

- I sometimes am logged out randomly from my account and it's a pain to have to log in again. - I've had some issues with email messages loading too slowly, but it is typically resolved after a refresh.

We switched our company from an Intermedia Exchange server to Gmail for Business and I am extremely happy with the results. My team adopted it very quickly, as most of them have used Gmail for personal use. I would highly recommend it to all companies.

Widespread familiarity - most employees are familiar with the gmail interface and have used drive in some capacity. Drive facilitates great document collaboration and has revision and version tracking built in. Google Groups is a distribution list on steroids - allowing a converstaion history to be saved within the group and not just individual mailboxes so new teammates can have historical conversation context.

Integration with traditional e-mail clients (outlook) is not there. Huge learning curve and wasted time trying to make calendar sync seamless for end users. Google chat is nice for a quick IM, but not nearly as robust as a Lync or Skype (and thus many people use personal Skype accounts for business conversations, calls and screen shares).

The ease of using Gmail for business was the main reason we switched to the service from other web based email. Training a new employee on gmail is unquestionably easier than training someone on many traditional email services. The service is free for small businesses with under 10 people and very economical for every tier above that, that I've researched. There are also discounts for education, & non-profit organizations. Many other services, beyond just Gmail, come with various packages. Basic membership comes with the Calendar and Drive. You have access to video chat, while some other services charge $5/user per month.

Because it's all run by a single source, all of your services will be affected by google server outages. I have had more than a few outages here-or-there, which certainly affected my productivity, but these were resolved within an hour. The free service comes with 25GB of storage, which is a lot for some, but certainly designers who E-mail large files might use up the space quickly.

Overall, gmail is the best form of email out there. I've noticed that most new employees either have their own personal gmail account and need almost no training, or become converts and quickly sign up for their own Gmail account shortly after using the service at work.

We are using it for online calendar and meetings. It can also be used for email, notes, cloud storage, and Google Drive.

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.

In Google Meet, there is no feature for recording a meeting. It should have a feature for recording.

I have been using this solution for more than three years.

We have somewhere around 75 users. Its usage will increase to a maximum of 100 users.

Their technical support is fine. For most of the things, we don't need support, but whenever required, we can get support.

Being a cloud solution, no big effort is required for its implementation. It is easy to implement this solution.

We normally purchase the license on a yearly basis.

I would recommend this solution. I would rate G Suite Enterprise a nine out of ten.
