Gemini in Google Workspace review

Gemini in Google Workspace is the obvious assistant for companies already on Google, because it comes inside the plan rather than as a separate license. Business Starter includes the Gemini assistant in Gmail and chat with Gemini where, Google says, company data is not used to train models, plus the Vids AI video editor. Business Standard extends Gemini to Docs, Meet and other apps and adds expanded access to Gemini Notebook for research, along with meeting recording and noise cancellation. Business Plus adds Vault and eDiscovery, and Enterprise adds data loss prevention, context-aware access and data regions. Every business plan starts with a 14 day trial. It scores high on ease of use because staff meet the assistant in tools they already open daily. It ranks below the standalone leaders because the cheapest tier limits where Gemini appears, and from our location Google showed prices only in Polish zloty, so we could not verify a USD price.

Who it is for

Companies on Google Workspace that want an assistant included in the plan they already pay for.
