The astute reader might note that "Flexible" and "Commit" plans aren't mentioned in any Business plan offering, either for the old G Suite or the new Workspace. We'll work with customers to identify a transition plan and communicate the details prior to those dates. This phrase was used in Google's answer to me: "to customers that transition to Google Workspace editions." For non-Enterprise customers, is this transition voluntary, or will it apply to all customers? And as of approximately when?įor customers on a Flexible plan, we'll work with them over the coming months to identify their transition path to one of the new offerings that's best for them.įor G Suite customers on a Commit plan, their existing G Suite licenses and related services will continue to function until their renewal date. Is moving from a G Suite plan to a Workspace plan mandatory or optional? The editions still provide plentiful storage with options for Enterprise edition customers to request more if needed. With the new editions, we're providing ample storage and more value with features that are useful to more customers, like Meet recordings in the new Business Standard edition, while maintaining pricing. If a G Suite Business customer is already using more storage than is available in the Workplace plans, will that customer need to find a new home for that data in 2021 or 2022, or will that customer be able to remain a G Suite Business customer in 20 without increasing their spend?Īs I mentioned, a relatively small number of organizations in a few specific industries actually need unlimited storage. The question ("If they stay in G Suite, can they count on unlimited storage into the future or should they make somewhat urgent migration plans in 2021?") wasn't fully answered. But will Business plan customers need to migrate their storage? That said, let's move on with our questions and try to find out what's going to happen to all the data Business plan users have stored on Google Drive. " Video production takes a tremendous amount of storage and many companies and individuals, across all industries, are doing more and more of it every day. The editions still provide plentiful storage, and for Enterprise edition customers, we will offer as much storage as they need without additional costs.Īs I'll discuss below in my wrap-up analysis, I disagree with the statement "A relatively small number of organizations in a few specific industries actually need it. With the new editions, we're providing more value with features that are useful to more customers, like Meet recordings in the new Business Standard edition, while maintaining pricing. A relatively small number of organizations in a few specific industries actually need it.

We've found that most customers do not realize the full benefit of unlimited storage. With Google Workspace, we're offering a greater variety of editions, with more granular differentiation in product features, storage capacity, and administrative and security controls across our lineup.
