By Google Worskspace instance, we mean an administrative console, i.e. a place where you manage a particular organization. In the instance, you can manage several business domains.

Google Workspace offers many features that are not available in the free version of Gmail. The most important differences are:

– more space on Google Drive,
– email accounts in your domain,
– a 99.9% Service Level Agreement,
– advanced control options,
– security audits,
– custom alerts,
– and analytical reports.

Yes, you can test any Google Workspace plan before making a purchase decision. As a Google Partner, we offer a trial period of 30 days.

Non-profit organizations and educational institutions (schools and universities) can use Google Workspace for free. Every new G Suite user can try out a chosen plan for free for 30 days if they cooperate with an authorized Google partner (the trial period directly from Google is only 14 days).

Google Workspace includes all the necessary applications for office work. The most popular ones are Gmail with business domain, Docs, Spreadsheets, Forms, Calendar, Drive, Hangouts Meet and Chat, and Slides. Additionally, in Google Workspace Marketplace, you can find several hundred plugins and add-ons that work with the office productivity software suite from Google.

The user is a single email account. A single user is not always a single license, because a license can also be purchased for devices e.g. printers.

No. Google Workspace is a set of applications designed to work together. For example, you can save Gmail messages as an event in your Calendar with a single click. Changes and comments made to Sheets, Docs, or Slides files will not escape your colleagues’ attention because everyone will receive an email notification. In Calendar, you can also create a Hangouts Meet conference and notify other participants about it. Working in a consistent ecosystem of Google Workspace applications ensures its best performance.

In Google Workspace Business Starter, each user has 30 GB of storage space (twice as much as in private Gmail accounts). Google Workspace Business Standard and Plus offer consecutively: 2TB and 5TB per user. Google Workspace Enterprise provide unlimited disk space.

Google Workspace for Education is free and dedicated to schools and universities only. The standard version is addressed to companies and organizations.

Administrators manage settings, user accounts and billing in Google Workspace. If you’re the person who registered Google Workspace instance, you are its administrator. You can assign administrator privileges to other users.

Yes, Fly On The Cloud offers help with implementation and data migration. After that, we offer ongoing technical support for Google Workspace admins. Check out the details of our tech support service here.

Duration of the data migration depends on many factors, in particular on the number of emails stored on your current mail hosting. This process can take from 15 minutes to up to 7 days (for email accounts with several million emails).

Yes, all the data associated with your Google Workspace account are fully secure. The security of the service is confirmed by numerous certificates such as ISO 27001, ISO 27017, ISO 27018, SOC 2/3, FedRAMP. If you have any questions about how to encrypt data in Google services, please contact us. As a Google Cloud Partner, we have up-to-date knowledge about the means of data protection provided by Google infrastructure.

Unfortunately, no. It is necessary to create a separate instance for each variant of Google Workspace service.

Alias is a second, alternative email address assigned to one mailbox. For example, the main account of office manager <richard.smith@company.com> can have an anonymous alias <office@company.com>. Messages sent to one of our aliases will be automatically forwarded to our main mailbox.

A license is necessary to create a single email account within Google Workspace instance. Its name can be changed if needed. For example, the email <eva.donovan@company.com> can be changed to <elisabeth.jones@company.com> without adding another license.

This means that you can handle domains of several companies in one Google Workspace console. The first step to take, is to divide users into separate organizations. You can then add each domain as an alias to the basic one or as separate additional domains.

You can upload any type of file to the Drive. On the Drive, you can also convert uploaded files to Google file editors formats: Docs, Sheets, and Slides.

Yes, every company can increase the storage capacity of specific accounts by any number of GB. Details can be found here: https://support.google.com/a/answer/1726914?hl=en

After switching to Google Workspace, you can opt-out of other office programs – all the operations you’ve done in them so far are possible in the Google Workspace, too. Don’t have to worry about files you’ve created earlier – they’re not becoming useless. Documents with other extensions (e.g. .txt or .docx from Office 365) can be easily opened for viewing in the Drive or converted into a Google file without losing properties.

No. There is no minimum or maximum. You can buy Enterprise versions for any number of users. The upper limitation exists only for Business variant.

The transition of G Suite to Google Workspace was announced in October 2020, but the changeover process for existing customers will continue for several months. Google guarantees favorable conditions so that no current user will be at loss. Contact us to find out more about whether your organization will need to change its current package to another.

Yes, if our implementation, technical support or training offer suits you better, there is nothing to prevent you from starting cooperation with Fly On The Cloud and transferring to us the Google services you are currently using. The console change is a simple procedure that will not in any way interfere with the daily work of employees.
