Assosiate Professor at Palazzo del Mediterraneo
Collaborative work with students has improved but storage limitations and support issues remain
We have Google Workspace, and we use it primarily for Drive to collect items. We categorize folders with topics and material either for students or for research. We use Google Doc to share documents, especially when we assign homework to be corrected for peer correction or classroom correction. With Teams and Microsoft, we use it for collective calls and exam supervision because we use video surveillance through camera with Teams. We use Teams for meetings and to share material with students. The ability to share documents with students and assign them things and correct them in real time has been beneficial. You can verify what they write, and they can contribute and cooperate to create a collective document, which is something that our society nowadays requires. The ability to cooperate, especially those who work with languages and those who work with writing, need to learn how to cooperate. There is co-editing and co-writing, all these sorts of things. I love the fact that I can easily have access to folders that I can categorize and where I can upload research material and teaching material.

Email triage solution that actions and handles emails based on preferences
Superhuman could be improved by being made available across a broader range of devices including Android and Windows PCs. Superhuman is also a phone app, which is available only on DiOS right now. Because it's not available on Android, you have to use Gmail for your phone, and use Superhuman for your desktop. The search feature could be improved. Currently, Gmail search is a lot more robust because you can filter results based on your requirements. Superhuman does not offer this way of searching which can make emails difficult to find.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Users can work anywhere with an internet connection."
"It is a stable platform. It is very easy to use, and most importantly, it is very easy to administer. It also gets up and running quite easily."
"Ability to co-edit and collaborate on content."
"Overall, I rate Google Workspace a ten out of ten."
"G Suite Enterprise is user-friendly, and the technical toolkits and other information are on the website. Additionally, the technical documents are comprehensive."
"It's more open than Microsoft and easy to use."
"The solution is very intuitive."
"We use Google Sheets extensively for things like sharing plans, data, test reports, and more."
"The best feature about Superhuman is the fact that you don't have to manually go through your emails. This solution segregates your email according to your preferences and how you want to categorize emails."
"It is fast, and it increases your productivity."
 

Cons

"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."
"Everything is online, so you don't have a client on your desk. Working on email is online work, so can't do work offline and go back online. Sometimes it's not so intuitive. If you answer an email, it puts your answer at the bottom of the existing email."
"There are times the plugins or extensions in the solution do not work properly and I need to disable and enable the solution."
"The solution needs to be more user-friendly and improve its tools and features."
"We've had difficulty using PowerPoint files in G Suite. PowerPoint has some functions that are not available in G Suite, so when you convert from PPTX to the Slides format, they don't work."
"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 performance speed could be improved when the internet connection is slow."
"It would be a lot nicer if the default Gmail came with features that we currently need add-ons for, such as tables, automatic BCC, resizing of the panel on the left-hand side, email highlighting, and configuring the display of time and date against each email."
"Superhuman could be improved by being made available across a broader range of devices including Android and Windows PCs."
"It can have a few more integrations. As far as I know, it is being integrated with Salesforce."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's low in cost as compared to Office 365. There is an annual licensing cost."
"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."
"Licensing costs are on a yearly basis."
"We normally purchase the license on a yearly basis."
"Approximately $6 per user, per month."
"We have purchased an annual subscription."
"The overall cost is very reasonable when considering all of the security features that you are receiving. It is a bit more expensive than our local host and/or other hosting companies that are available on the market, but it is worth it."
"We pay on yearly basis."
"It is fairly expensive. They have monthly and yearly licensing options."
