For most small and medium sized businesses with less than 300 employees, it is much easier to adopt one all-inclusive platform that is ready-to-use than assembling different vendor’s solutions from scratch. With just a few clicks, a fully collaborative productivity platform is in place.
By leveraging Google’s cloud-based productivity suite, companies can save time and effort on things like building and managing their own infrastructure, installing software packages for everyone, etc, therefore being able to focus on growing the business. Another advantage of adopting G Suite is the ability to combine other third-party solutions to produce greater output.
