Based on other buyer's searches, these are the products that could be a good fit for you.
Reviewers find Google Workspace's email management features particularly beneficial for maintaining a professional email appearance and managing custom domain emails. They appreciate the seamless integration with Gmail, which offers ample storage, spam filtering, and the ability to create personalized email addresses for their businesses. Users also highlight the ease of setting up and managing multiple email accounts, the effectiveness of spam filtering, and the ability to integrate emails from other providers, making it a comprehensive solution for business communication needs.
Users value Google Workspace for its document management and organization capabilities, allowing them to access and edit documents from any device with cloud-based access. They find it convenient to keep all their documents in one place and appreciate the variety of tools available for creating, managing, and sharing documents. However, some users experience frustration with limited advanced features and compatibility issues, particularly when converting documents from Microsoft Office formats, which can result in formatting errors and additional work to correct them.
Pros
To be honest it’s very user friendly and flexible. All modules are very usefully and important.
Collaborating with multiple people is easy and effective, and there are many great features such as making comments and inserting edits that can be viewed and resolved.
This is an amazing tool that assists you in making your place better and more productive. It is easy to use and also cheap.
It’s so nice having everything in one place and starting off in a hub every single morning. What I like most about Google sweet is that it has literally everything a business needs.
Cons
Painstaking to get it set up correctly on android, as well as my laptop. Confusing billing system, frustrating security, and terrible customer support.
It can be frustrating when there are features that are available in MS Suite that GSuite does not have. They are few and far in between, but once in a while it does frustrate you.
I've recently been getting emails in error from Gsuite. I've contacted customer support and they have no explanation for these error emails.
We have found the provide storage to be inadequate at our tier level, and have had problems with Windows 10 compatibility.

Eugene L.
"A colloborative powerhouse with room for development"
Overall: High level streamlined productivity and user friendly interface with reliable security. It also satisfies wide accessibility
Pros: Google chat, google docs, google meet, google forms and so on are my everyday usable platforms and also i use a lot in google drive to save up my stuff. How could I deny that its a great asset to a individual who uses internet on a regular basis. Its seamsless collaboration features are playing a great interest.
Cons: Storage limitations are of the most barrier that I come accross. Subscription prices are expensive which is not appealing.
"Hassle free comes at a cost, and a couple of gotchas."
Overall: Overall experience is positive, but the second I get a similar eco-system elsewhere for cheaper, I wouldn't hesitate much.
Pros: The ecoysystem. Everything just works. I have had issues with OneDrive randomly ending file access and team members complaining that the file isn't accessible, however this is not the case with Workspace. It comes with quite a lot of features out of the box to help you run your business, and on top of which, if you are savvy enough with scripting, you can almost run basic, non-TOS breaking transactional emails (think reminders, alerts etc).
Cons: I think it is quite expensive for the price. A major negative is that Google neglects their Workspace customers and gives them a degrading experience if you own Google devices. Many features aren't compatible as opposed to having a regular gmail account and they still haven't addressed this despite being a user for over 12 years.
"Good investment👍🏻"
Overall: My experience was great I would definitely recommend this to my friends and family
Pros: It is useful because you get everything in just one app like gmail,documents and slides etc.I mainly use it yo make slides for my office meetings
Cons: Although i love google workspace but sometimes it hangs and get me irritated
"Not perfect, but still amazing!"
Overall: I've been using Google Workspace for over a decade, and it's just an excellent product, and they keep improving it. However, they seem to change their mind too often. "Here's Duo, use it for video conferencing. Here's Hangouts, use it to chat. Psych! Now it's Meet and Chat."
Pros: When it comes to team collaboration, Google Workspace is the best in the business. Teams can collaborate live editing documents together, using chat within those documents, and everything is just intuitive.
Cons: While the collaboration is amazing, the productivity suite just isn't MS Office. They're close, but just lagging in features. The Google Sheets formulas aren't quite the same as Excel, the formatting options of Google Docs aren't as robust as Word, etc.
"Google Workspace - Must Have Productivity and Collaboration Tools"
Overall: Our team has used Google Workspace for years and absolutely love how easy it makes collaborating together and with external partners.
Pros: Google Workspace is easy to set up for your whole team and provides essential collaborative tools all in-one place. With email, file sharing, documents, spreadsheets, slides, forms and much more this platform is our must have for getting things done.
Cons: I wish google drive space had more filtering options for organizing and accessing files. This drawback can occasionally make it difficult to quickly find a file if you don't have a clearly established folder hierarchy in place.
