Posted - Feb 07 2023 : 21:01:30 If you have already compared G Suite and Office 365 and still not getting to a conclusion, then here are some points that explain why you should migrate G Suite to Office 365.
1. Secure your Data and Files with SharePoint When it comes to file storage, G Suite uses its own personal Google Drive storage for all types of data files, which can be shared with anyone while collaborating with them effectively. But there is one drawback of Google Drive; it doesn’t offer structured file storage, which often makes it complicated for businesses to organize their data. Moreover, if any file is deleted accidentally by any user, then you will have to navigate and look for that file specifically.
On the other hand, Office 365 also uses its unique storage feature OneDrive backed by SharePoint, a good content management system. Even if any file is deleted from SharePoint, then there is the in-place recovery for all the files, and so you will not face any issues in restoring your missing files.
2. Flexibility and Scalability for Your Business We do not mean to say that G Suite is not flexible or scalable, but it is a web-based platform that offers limited flexibility. Whereas, Office 365 is a completely cloud-based system, which is more flexible and scalable as compared to on-premises systems. Besides, the centralized admin center and built-in integration of Office 365 with Azure make it even more ideal for scaling on-demand.
So, if your business is growing exponentially or you have changing requirements, then Office 365 could be the best option for you.
3. Offers Better Productivity and On-the-Go Access The significant difference between Office 365 and G Suite is the offline support for applications. G Suite applications can only be accessed via the web or mobile apps, whereas Office 365 comes with a desktop version of every app for offline access. For example, MS Outlook, in addition to browser-based use, can be installed on your system.
Although some of the G Suite applications can be accessed offline for editing, you need to make every document available offline, and then upload it again after editing.
So, if your employees travel a lot and work from various locations, then they might find it struggling to work with G Suite applications. However, with Office 365 applications, you will find yourself more privileged, as the offline support and desktop apps make it more convenient to access and edit documents.
