Google Workspace empowers businesses by providing powerful collaboration, productivity, storage, and communication tools.

Tech stack

Like Zoho Workplace, Google Workspace offers a wide range of apps that promote productivity, collaboration, and communication among team members. You can also extend Google Workspace’s functionality even further thanks to various add-ons and integrations like:

Copper, a CRM specifically for Google Workspace.
DocuSign, providing a faster and easier way to sign and manage contracts and agreements.
Miro, an online whiteboard and ideation space.
Slack, for better communication.
Asana, a project management software.
Kanbanchi, a Kanban-style agile project management software that integrates with Calendar, Drive, and Gmail.

However, to avoid getting overwhelmed by Google Workspace’s many features and offerings, it’s important to determine your business needs and choose your add-ons and integrations accordingly.

Some of Google Workspace’s features include:

Gmail gives companies and employees their own email accounts under their business’s custom domain name.

Calendar lets employees schedule calls, block out focus time, add ‘out of office’ time, and set reminders on a calendar everyone in the company can see. This reduced scheduling errors and tedious back and forths.

Google Drive stores your files so you can upload, access, share, and manage all your data in one safe place.

Google Docs enables teams to collaborate in real-time by sharing and editing documents. Edit histories also increase transparency and allow users to track activity.

Google Sheets is a spreadsheet program similar to Excel, which, with the right integrations, can even be used to power business and personal CRM tools . More on this later!

Google Slides helps teams to build and collaborate on presentations, and edit in real-time.

Google Meet integrates seamlessly with Calendar and Chat to quickly schedule and hold voice and video meetings.

Google Vault is an additional security measure that lets users archive, search, and export on-the-record chats and company emails for auditing and eDiscovery purposes.

Chat (Previously Google Hangouts) is a messaging tool and Slack alternative that streamlines quick team communications.
