Collaborative tools have improved team communication and file organization across projects
Before I was in a Microsoft environment, which had its own software that was not website-based. When I moved to Google Workspace, it was not seamless because I have to access it through a web view in the browser. Most of it does not have stable connection because it is based on web view. It would be great if Google Workspace had its own application built into the PC or a desktop application. The operation is a bit different from Microsoft, which makes it difficult for me. For example, with Microsoft, we could easily access the shared mailbox with one URL and have access to it. With Google Workspace, we have to set it up by ourselves inside our own mailbox, which is a bit difficult because of how it operates differently. I think it can be improved more. Currently, guidelines are just in the form of a document that we can read by ourselves. It would be really helpful if the guidelines themselves were built into the environment itself. Since Google Workspace is in web view, maybe that would be possible. That would be more helpful than just reading a document.

Reliable platform that integrates well with different IT infrastructures and systems
The product integrates well with different IT infrastructures and systems in the telecom sector. Our partners manage services, including detailed integration and migration-related operations. The platform upholds the uptime and reliability of our business applications. We classify our systems into different tiers, ranging from machine-critical to business-critical, and FusionStorage helps us run all the services. It delivers a remarkable uptime of 99.9%. With our expectations for continuous service availability, we are operating 24/7. In cases where system interruptions occur, it enables rapid restoration, ensuring a prompt return to normal service levels. I rate it an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Google seems to be a more stable environment than our current on-premise Microsoft solution that we're replacing."
"The security and privacy policies of G Suite make it efficient, and the organizational data is secure."
"The setup is usually easy."
"G Suite Enterprise is scalable."
"G-Suite is a costly investment, but it is better than other solutions in terms of features, functions, usability, and uptime."
"Go for it and use it effectively."
"This solution has everything you need; it's got search features, it's got reliable storage, card features, it's got quick thinking, it's awesome."
"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, and we can all collaborate together and update documentation in real-time."
"The product has a very simple GUI-based management platform and it is very simple to use. There is a very easy step-by-step configuration procedure that guides you through, and you can configure it very easily."
"Provides easy access to our data."
"Huawei FusionStorage does well in its basic functions and offers broad utility."
"It is a stable solution."
"This is a good solution and we haven't had any issues with it."
"The solution’s most valuable feature is its performance."
"In cases where system interruptions occur, it enables rapid restoration, ensuring a prompt return to normal service levels."
 

Cons

"I find the price high for the full suite features. Compared to Exchange Online, the price might not be too high, but you cannot choose only one functionality. When you buy Google Workspace, you have to get everything, including file storage and communication tools, which I don't use."
"Scalability is not as good as we would like."
"The pricing of the solution could be better."
"Integration with Microsoft Outlook could be improved. The new integration was implemented last September, and we are facing some issues with OAuth 2.0 authentication."
"The feature set of Google Sheets is limited."
"Integration with Microsoft Outlook could be improved."
"There are times the plugins or extensions in the solution do not work properly and I need to disable and enable the solution."
"In the next release, I would like to see more encryption of documents, mail, and things like that. There should be a better way to encrypt mail and documents that are pushed through this system. That would be some improvement or additional features that could be good to have."
"The initial setup and installation is not that straightforward. It should be made easier and the time to install should be reduced."
"Their cloud services could be improved."
"I'd like to see better product maturity including their branding on the cloud environment. Their cloud services are not up to that of AWS, Azure or Oracle cloud platforms."
"The only thing I really know about the initial setup is that currently the installation is not that straightforward."
"The product needs improvement in terms of affordability."
"I hope for improvements in the product's processing ability and performance."
"The problem with Huawei is that it generally oversells. As a principle, Huawei does not educate the partner or the end user enough to scale up their solution correctly."
"The solution’s support could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I can't recall the exact pricing per user for Google Workspace, but I know it's not that expensive. I'm in a mid-sized company that's able to maintain and afford Google Workspace, so it has competitive pricing, and I would rate its price as four out of five."
"Careful consideration should be given to the different licensing options and provisions should be made for additional applications that may be required for your particular business."
"G Suite and Microsoft Office 365 offer products with similar functionality at several different price points. Zoho offer a more extensive range of products and attempts to provide all the applications required to run most small and medium-sized businesses."
"The main challenge regarding startups with identity services is you could be on a platform that works well but the services are expensive. For example, Microsoft Azure costs approximately $30 per user which is expensive. You end up choosing a different platform, such as G Suite Enterprise because it is priced reasonably and is less expensive than other solutions."
"There are several areas where a G Suite implementation can reduce costs: lower license fees than some competing products, reduced hardware, and IT support costs."
"We pay a monthly subscription for the use of this solution."
"We normally purchase the license on a yearly basis."
"The pricing is comparable, it's pretty decent."
"If one is a cheap solution and ten means it is a very expensive product, I would rate the price as two or three."
"It is expensive but might be optimal based on the partnership."
