Qasid vs Google Workspace for a small business
Google Workspace is email, Drive and Meet, priced per person. Qasid upgrades the email you already have, priced per organization.
Google Workspace is the best-known choice, and Gmail with Gemini is excellent. If you also want Drive, Docs and Meet for everyone, it is hard to beat.
If what you need is better email, it is an expensive way to get it: every person is a paid seat, mail has to move to Google, and MX records change. Qasid keeps your mail where it is.
| Qasid | Google Workspace | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | Per organization, in rupees or dollars | Per person: $7, $14 or $22 a month (annual) |
| Drive, Docs, Meet, Calendar | No (email only; meeting invites work) | Yes |
| Where your mail lives | Stays with your current host | Moves to Google |
| Brand and spam filtering | Your host’s filtering, plus daily deliverability checks | Gmail’s filtering and reputation |
| Read receipts and follow-up sequences | Built in | Gmail suggests follow-ups; tracking and sequences need add-ons |
| Shared inbox for a team | Built in | Collaborative inboxes in Groups, or an add-on |
| AI | Summaries, replies, Ask your inbox, Urdu | Gemini in Gmail |
| Paying | JazzCash, Easypaisa, bank transfer or card | Card or a local reseller |
