About its availability for Indonesian market, Google has reduced the service’s price up to 40%. This means that instead of spending $50, users in Indonesia may have Google for Work for only $30.
The service package includes professional e-mail, online storage, shared calendar, and video conference equipment. So far, Google has confirmed that Gmail, Google Drive, Google Calendar, Document, and Hangouts are included in the package. There has yet been, unfortunately, any confirmation upon the inclusion of other Google personal services.
As we know that Google, one of internet giants in the world, guarantees their products and customer services to run 24/7. Besides being free from online issues, consumers’ convenience may also be reserved as Google for Work is available to be accessed from any available platform, as long as the users are connected to the internet. Users may access the services offline as long as they use Google Chrome.
