Google Workspace Cloud Adoption
Still running your business on personal Gmail and scattered shared drives? RisePoint sets up a complete Google Workspace Business Starter environment — custom domain email, Shared Drives, Meet, Chat, and security baselines configured and tested.
Using personal Gmail for work email looks unprofessional and creates real risk. Files shared via personal Google Drive have no structure, no permissions management, and no separation from personal accounts.
Google Workspace is the solution — but only when it’s configured correctly. Most businesses that sign up never fully set it up, and end up with the same problems in a paid wrapper.
Every deliverable is production-ready and handed off with documentation.
Google Workspace tenant connected to your custom domain with DNS records configured and email verified.
Up to 10 user accounts created and licensed on Google Workspace Business Starter.
2-step verification enforced, admin recovery options configured, and security settings reviewed.
Shared Drives organized by function with appropriate membership and access permissions.
Google Meet and Google Chat enabled, configured, and ready for team collaboration.
A working session with your designated administrator covering day-to-day operations and key settings.
Written guide covering Google Drive → Shared Drives file lifecycle and collaboration norms.
Technical design document capturing every configuration decision as a permanent reference.
Complete our checklist: domain, user list, branding assets, admin contacts.
Shared Drive architecture design and final configuration planning.
Domain setup, user onboarding, security configuration, Shared Drives, Meet, and Chat deployment.
Admin training session and handoff of the governance guide.
Design document delivered, admin quick reference provided, engagement closed.
Small businesses with up to 10 users moving off personal Gmail and scattered shared drives to a professional Google Workspace environment. If your team is larger than 10 users or you need advanced features like Meet recording and automated email signatures, GWS Ascend is the right fit.
Yes. Kickstarter works for existing tenants too. We’ll audit your current configuration, identify gaps, and rebuild around professional standards — security baselines, proper Shared Drive structure, documented configuration, and admin training.
You own the environment. We hand off design documentation, admin training, and a governance guide so your team can run independently. For ongoing PM support, the OPS retainer is available.
Schedule a 30-minute Discovery Session and we’ll walk through your current setup and confirm GWS Kickstarter is the right fit.
