New Delhi: With a lot of human activity going digital worldwide, search engine global leader Google has announced to increase in its “Workspace Individual” account cloud storage capacity from 15 gigabytes (GB) to 1 Terabyte (TB).
According to media reports, Google will soon introduce more features for “Workspace Individual” users, including an increase in storage capacity and advances in email personalization for all customers.
They will automatically upgrade every Google account from its existing 15 GB of storage to 1 TB as the company rolls this out.
With this upgrade, most Workspace Individual users won’t need to worry about running out of storage space in Gmail and Drive anymore.
Google Drive will also have built-in protections against malware, spam, and ransomware. Users will no longer have to worry about opening a document and accidentally exposing themselves to malware.
With the built-in mail merge update, users will now add mail merge tags like @firstname to multi-send emails, so each recipient receives a unique email that feels individually crafted just for them, Google added.
However, by default, multi-send emails will include an unsubscribe link, allowing recipients to opt out of receiving future messages.
Google is also launching Workspace Individual in some new countries and regions: the Philippines, Vietnam, Indonesia, Malaysia, Taiwan, Thailand, the Netherlands, Portugal, Belgium, Finland, Greece, and Argentina.
These countries will join a growing list of places business owners can sign up for Workspace Individual, including the US, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Japan, Australia, and six countries across Europe.
With the expansion of Workspace Individual, the company will also add more features, including Premium Meet, eSignatures in Google Docs, appointment scheduling, and flexible layouts in Gmail.
