Thinking about switching from Google Workspace to Microsoft 365? You’re not alone. As your business grows, you may find that Google’s simplicity starts to become a limitation — especially when it comes to structure, security, and integration with business tools.

Here’s what Microsoft 365 Business Standard does better for many teams:


Structured File Access
OneDrive and SharePoint allow for deeper file permissioning, version control, and folder logic — especially for larger teams or regulated industries.

Integrated App Ecosystem
Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Teams, and Outlook all sync natively. You don’t need to jump between disconnected tools or deal with file format quirks.

Advanced Identity & Security
Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) provides robust identity management, MFA, and device policies. Much more than Google’s basic admin panel.

Professional Communication Tools
Outlook and Teams offer enterprise-grade calendaring, email rules, shared inboxes, and meeting workflows — all in one login.


Google Workspace is great for getting started. But Microsoft 365 Business Standard is built to scale — with your team, your security needs, and your workflows.
