Benefits for your business

Work from anywhere

Keep everything in one place

Store files in a single, secure, shared location where your team can access them across devices - on computers, tablets and smartphones.

Enterprise-grade cloud security

Your data is far safer in the Google cloud than on your local server. Google Workspace meets stringent privacy and security standards based on industry best practices.

No updates or software required

Google Workspace stays up to date automatically, so you won’t have to worry about software updates or security patches.

Work with Microsoft Office files

Gmail

Get custom email (@yourcompany.com.au), 2TB of inbox storage (on Google Workspace Business Standard) and the ability to access your email anywhere, from any device. It's compatible with Microsoft Outlook and other email clients (but we recommend using it in your browser!). We can arrange the full migration of your email data from your existing system. Oh, and you can count on Google’s ultra-reliable servers to keep the lights on 24/7/365.

Calendar

Spend less time planning and more time doing with shareable calendars that integrate seamlessly with Gmail, Drive, Contacts, Sites and Meet so you always know what's next. Sync and access your calendar from your computer, tablet or phone. We can migrate your calendar data from your existing calendar (Exchange, Outlook or iCal) to Google.

Drive

Safely store all of your company's data in one place. Access files easily from desktop and mobile devices and control how teams share them. Receive 2TB of storage per user on Google Workspace Business Standard. With Shared Drives, you can eliminate the need (and costs!) for an in-house file server. Use Google Drive for Desktop to easily access files directly from your computer. Updated files will sync back to the cloud, where they can be accessed from any location and device.

Docs

Create and edit text documents right in your browser—no dedicated software required. Multiple people can work at the same time, and every change is saved automatically. Docs works with all popular file types - including Microsoft Word. You can also export your work in .docx, .pdf, .odt, .rtf, .txt or .html format. One very cool feature is the 'revision history'. Track changes made to your documents and undo anything you choose.

Sheets

Create spreadsheets in your browser—no dedicated software needed. Handle everything from simple task lists to data analysis with charts, filters and pivot tables. Import and convert existing spreadsheets to make them instantly editable, including Microsoft Excel® files. Export Sheets in .xlsx, .csv, .html, .ods, .pdf or .txt form.

Meet

Connect with your team from anywhere with easy-to-join video calls. You can meet face to face without the added cost of travel. Meet takes the headaches out of joining a video call at work. Just set up a meeting and share a link. No worrying about whether teammates, clients, or customers have the right accounts or plug-ins.

Vault

Manage, retain, search and export your organization’s email and on-the-record chats. Vault is included with Google Workspace's Business Plus and Enterprise editions. Control how long your email messages and on-the-record chats are retained. Specify policies for your entire domain or based on organizational units, date ranges and specific terms.

Mobile Device Management

Manage where your corporate data is being used. Mobile management for Android, iOS, Windows and other smartphones. You can require screen locks, strong passwords, and remotely erase confidential data with device wipe or selective account wipe for Android and iOS.
