Plan your exit from Google Workspace

Wanting to leave Google Workspace because of the pain in the ass Gemini, or the fact that Google doesn't care about your privacy, or the law? I left. Here's what you need to consider before you do, too.

Full disclosure, I'm an affiliate for Google Workspace. I used it for a long. Long. Long. Time. If you're starting out, privacy isn't a concern, you enjoy "AI" built into things, or you need the convenience of everything in one place then Google Workspace is a great option for you. It served me well for many many years.

But for me, it was time to make the move. Convenience is coming at a price I can't justify anymore: security. Peace of mind. The fact that I fucking hate generative AI...

But you have to make this decision for yourself and really reflect on a number of things, not least of which what you will use to replace the myriad of tools Google Workspace offers.

What, like it's hard?

It has email, calendars, documents, slides, spreadsheets, virtual meeting space, websites, groups, chats, and so much more. It is truly a convenient all in one place for your life or business.
