OUR APPROACH TO GOOGLE WORKSPACE
Need Help With Implementing Google Workspace? We’re Experts.
Planning
We’ll help you identify your internal change management team. They’ll work with us to strategise and coordinate the switchover.
Communications
We’ll build hype about moving to Google Workspace. This will involve creating a communications plan and developing an internal campaign for the switchover, as well as managing those communications.
Provisioning
We’ll confirm that all relevant organisational units, accounts, security and access levels are set up and ready for deployment.
Deployment
We’ll begin to systematically add users ensuring that all group emails and aliases are set up within your Google Control Panel.
Migration
Then we’ll export all emails, contacts, calendars, and data from your legacy system to your new Google account. To get you set up in Workspace immediately, we’ll first move strategic data and projects you’re currently working on.
Go-Live
This is where we reroute all business mail from your current solution through Google’s MX records.
User Training
We’ll provide orientation and intermediate training.
- Orientation training shows users how to compose an email, access their Google Drive, share documents, etc.
- Intermediate training focuses on enhancing your Google Workspace experiences. Here we’ll take an in-depth look at the functionality of Google Docs, Sheets, Drive, Forms, and Sites.
Adoption
Everyone on your team needs to feel comfortable with using Google Workspace. There’s no reason why all users can’t adopt the entire Workspace suite.That’s why we’ll help to create new workflows or solutions and check in regularly to address potential issues and ensure that your organisation has fully adopted Google Workspace.
Ready To Lift And Shift?
Migrating From Another Provider?
Here’s our 3-phased approach to integrating Google Workspace into your organisation. We use this process for large-scale migrations. For smaller deployments, the process happens simultaneously.
We get your IT team set up with and using Google Workspace so they can familiarise themselves with the different tools.
Please note we don’t migrate legacy data during phase 1.
In this phase, we aim to get 10% of the representatives from different roles across your company to use Google Workspace.
Then you can begin migrating data (user accounts, mails and calendar bookings) from your legacy system.
It’s time for the great migration and to put all those wonderful plans into action. Every user will be given a Google Guide to support them in their journey to mastering Google Workspace. Our expert deployment specialists will also be on hand to advise and troubleshoot any problems your team may run into.
