Gmail for business use is a tremendous asset for most organizations. Gmail is just one of the tools located inside of the G Suite, that enables an endless set of expanding capabilities that small businesses & individuals can leverage to their advantage. Google effectively tackled the problem of spam, search, allowing you a lot of storage, yet very low cost.

While we as a company believe that there are numerous privacy concerns about using Google if your main focus is productivity Gmail and G Suite are the most cost-effective way to get started with your business.

Tangible Business Benefits of Using Gmail

Since the inception of Alpha Efficiency, we’ve used legacy G Suite that allowed us to eliminate digital operating expenses. While other businesses had to purchase access to the Microsoft ecosystem, we enjoyed the advantage of free. While you couldn’t say that Google Sheets are better than Excel at the time, they did a good enough of a job for us. Having free software removes the economic pressure of you operating your company, and for many bootstrappers out there, that is a matter of life and death.

We’ve profited from the fact that Gmail was getting better integrations with the rest of the Google ecosystem as the time went by, and thus leading to an increase in the performance of our organization.
