Gmail Comparison Between Personal and Business Edition (Google Workspace)

Second Differences:

Personal Gmail Is Free, but Business Gmail Is a Chargeable Subscription Service

Personal Gmail is free, but business Gmail is a paid subscription service. (See Google Workspace pricing for Malaysia here). Google Workspace is designed with business in mind, featuring collaborative and management features to help ease workflow. Unique features include:

Your Company Email Address As @yourcompanyname.com, Instead of @gmail.com

Google Workspace (the company Gmail) allows you to have your company name as your business Gmail identifier. This is useful if you have multiple domain names for different subsidiaries as you can use them simultaneously on one platform. Google Workspace allows up to 600 domains for a single account. (Find out more about multiple domain FAQs.)

Admin Console Is Included in Google Workspace, but Not Free Gmail

Google Workspace, the business Gmail includes Admin Console – a business account management tool that allows administrators to control account permissions for company Gmail users. For example, the manager can set up access to allow only the business department to share and transfer files with external parties (such as customers and vendors), while not allowing other departments to share the files externally.

Customer Support Is Available for Google Workspace Users

Google Workspace Administrators can reach Google Support 24/7 through Phone or Chat for any Technical queries. If you subscribe through Google Authorized Reseller, you will also have Technical Support including exclusive support such as local language speaking customer service, a personalized customer support portal, etc. (You may refer to Considerations for choosing a Google Workspace reseller).

Business Gmail Has Double the Storage of Personal Gmail and the Ability to Add Even More

Google Workspace Business Starter includes maximum storage of 30 GB per user (including company mailbox and cloud storage), double the storage of a personal Gmail account, which is 15 GB. When you upgrade to Google Workspace Business Standard or Plus, you can increase your storage to 2 TB or 5 TB respectively. You can get unlimited storage if you choose Enterprise Edition.

More Than an Inbox – Google Workspace Includes a Variety of Collaboration Tools

Gmail is only one of the many tools available in Google Workspace. Around 50 other applications (such as Google Calendar, Google Drive, Google Spreadsheets, Google Documents, and Google Sites) are included at no extra charge in your preferred subscription level.
