Google opens office applications for everyone
Video calls via Meet (formerly Hangouts), writing messages via Chat, bulk management of spreadsheets or text documents, or advanced work with calendar events. These and other tools and applications have so far been provided by Google for many years to users within the service Workspace (formerly G Suite). Companies, schools, non-profits and other institutions. However, as of June 14, 2021, this situation has changed and Google Workspace is officially available to everyone. So for anyone with a regular Google Account.
Opening the mentioned environment to “ordinary” users will be gradual. Chat was the first to arrive, which you can now click on, for example, via Gmail or a direct address. For example, this communication tool currently includes Rooms that Google intends to turn into Spaces, loosely translated as “Spaces”. You can try the novelty right away and maybe it will become an alternative to other “messengers” for you.
Google Workspace – How it’s done.
Along with making Google Workspace available to everyone, the US company has also launched a new paid service for entrepreneurs. The space between regular non-paying users and large companies will now fit the Google tariff in terms of premium features Workspace Individual. It was created primarily for users who need premium business features for their own one-member company. So far, it is available in the USA, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Australia and Japan.
