GOOGLE WORKSPACES PRICING UPGRADE
Microsoft 365 users need to upgrade to get desktop apps with all available features-though admittedly, these include advanced features across nearly all apps that aren’t available with Google Workspace. As far as the base tier goes, the edge for affordability goes to Microsoft for higher inclusions.īoth providers have mobile and web-based productivity apps, but Workspace users can access all the base tier’s features. Microsoft includes more storage (1TB) in the lowest-plan tier compared to Google (30GB) and higher video conferencing limits (300 participants vs 100 with the Google office suite). However, the two base plans are not totally comparable. Google Workspace plans start at $6 per user, per month, as do those of Microsoft 365. Still undecided? Each section below offers more in-depth information about Microsoft 365 vs Google Workspace to help you choose.
