Written by Ritwik Ruia Monday, 04 May 2015 06:07

Google Apps for Work is Google’s Cloud-based Collaboration & Productivity suite of products – the core of which is Gmail (Google’s E-Mail for businesses solution). If you are a still growing small business, chances are you won’t have a large budget to invest in IT software infrastructure like e-mail, instant messaging, file collaboration, synced calendars etc., which today are essential for productivity and communication.

That’s where a Collaborative Suite like Google Apps for Work comes into the picture. When all your calendar/mail/chat/file/web analytics and other critical data sits behind a single, secure login, it becomes much easier to access and use. Think of Google Apps as a work management assistant that makes sure you always have the data you need, when you need it. It allows you to establish a personalized domain name with email addresses set as @yourdomain.com extremely quickly, and all those @yourdomain.com accounts are managed from a centralized administration system with delegable authority. The Gmail interface is extremely easy to work on for any employee that joins your organization.

The benefits of Google Apps for Work are:

  • Massive storage space of 30GB per email ID – more than sufficient for most setups. Upgradeable to Unlimited.
  • Advanced and always-evolving Spam Filters to reduce spam mail, reducing time spent dealing with and deleting unsolicited mail
  • True mobile compatibility – usable on the move from any smart mobile device
  • Seamless migration from existing solution with the help of Google Apps for Work Partners like General Data P. Limited
  • Very easy to adapt to, virtually no learning curve to begin using Gmail and other Google Apps
  • Very safe and secure solution with the latest encryption standards & HTTPS secure connections

Google’s  business email pricing falls in line with what most businesses – small or big – would budget. Rs 150/user/month (India pricing May 2015) gives you access to all the core apps and tools, while $10/user/month adds on even more features like unlimited storage, mail archival and discovery, audit reporting, advanced mail and administrative policies, etc.
