Introduction
Google Workspace is one of the most powerful tools for SMBs today. It gives you professional email, cloud storage, video calls, and real-time collaboration — all in one package.
But here’s the mistake many Pune SMBs make: they only buy licenses from a reseller or Google directly, and that’s where the help stops.
The truth? Google Workspace works best when you have a consultant by your side. At ManagedInbox, based in Erandwane, Pune, we’ve seen first-hand how the right consulting saves SMBs time, money, and countless headaches.
Here are the top 5 reasons why your SMB should work with a Google Workspace consultant instead of going it alone.
1. Smooth Setup and Migration
Buying licenses is just the first step. The real challenge is:
- Verifying your domain
- Configuring DNS (SPF, DKIM, DMARC)
- Migrating emails, contacts, and calendars
- Ensuring zero downtime for employees
A consultant makes this transition smooth. We’ve migrated dozens of Pune SMBs from Gmail, Zoho, and Outlook to Workspace — all without losing data.
Tip: Don’t risk data loss. A consultant ensures your migration is safe and seamless.
2. Cost Optimization
Many SMBs overpay for licenses because they don’t know the right plan or forget to remove unused accounts.
As consultants, we:
- Audit your license usage
- Recommend the most cost-effective plan
- Eliminate waste (like inactive users still costing money)
Example: A consulting firm in Deccan saved ₹18,000 annually after we reviewed their Workspace licenses.
3. Better Security and Deliverability
Workspace has strong security features, but only if configured properly. Many SMBs miss this step and face issues like:
- Client emails landing in spam
- Ex-employee accounts left open
- No two-factor authentication
A consultant configures everything for you:
- SPF, DKIM, DMARC for better deliverability
- Admin rules for secure access
- Ongoing monitoring to prevent issues
4. Ongoing Admin Support
After setup, businesses face daily issues:
- Adding/removing users
- Resetting passwords
- Recovering accounts
- License renewals
Instead of wasting time, you get priority admin support from our Erandwane team. It’s like having your own IT department, without the full-time cost.
5. Local Expertise You Can Trust
The biggest advantage? We’re local.
- Based in Erandwane, Pune, close to business hubs like Shivajinagar, Deccan, and JM Road.
- Understand SMB challenges in Pune — tight budgets, fast growth, and need for reliable tools.
- Available in Pune business hours when you need us.
You won’t get this from a global reseller.
Real Example: Manufacturing Business in Bhosari
A manufacturing company in Bhosari bought Workspace licenses directly. But they struggled with:
- Emails going to spam
- Employees confused with new tools
- Admin wasting time on account management
After engaging us as their Workspace consultant:
- We fixed deliverability within 2 days
- Trained staff on Drive and Meet
- Took over admin tasks → saving the owner 5+ hours a week
Now, their communication is smooth and secure.
Conclusion
Google Workspace is powerful, but it takes the right setup, support, and consulting to get full value.
By working with a Google Workspace consultant in Pune, your SMB gets:
- Hassle-free setup & migration
- Cost savings on licenses
