Wizard? Aside from the name?īasically, all the Workspace features that bring different messaging and collaborating opportunities into Gmail - the stuff we heard about last fall for paying Workspace account owners - are now gonna be available to anyone who's using Gmail, whether on a paid or a free basis. With this week's announcement, that name now applies to anyone using said services, whether you're a paying business customer or just a regular ol' individual-account-owning schmo. Watson! Best I can tell, Google Workspace is now the name for all of Google's productivity apps - Gmail, Docs, Sheets, and so on. What exactly is Google Workspace?Įxcellent question, Mr. So sharpen your fingernails and prepare for some intensive head-scratching: It's time to get inquisitive.Īll right, let's start simple. In an effort to answer those inquiries and make sense of Google's increasingly comical messaging service situation, I thought we'd think through some questions together - questions that'll help us get to the bottom of what's actually going on with all of this and what it really, truly means for us as humble Google-using hominids. It's a lot to wrap your head around, and my own Gmail inbox has been overflowing with questions from bemused and befuddled Google users. With that announcement comes a host of incoming changes to the communication services you know and love and even some changes to the core Gmail interface. Our latest confounding twist comes courtesy of an announcement earlier this week that Google Workspace - the recently rebranded identity for the entity formerly known as G Suite - will now be available for everyone, whether you're using a paid company-connected account or a free individual Google account. Achieving levels of perplexity this high is a rare feat, and you'd better believe it ain't easy. This, my fellow earthlings, deserves some serious recognition. Just when I thought the G-team had made its messaging service strategy as convoluted as humanly possible, Le Googlé has managed to inject even more messy confusion into its suite of messaging products. Good golly, gang, Google's done it again.
