Why adoption is important
Adoption is the foundation for enhancing your organization’s productivity and tracking the success of your Google Workspace migration. You can identify levels of user engagement over time, and if necessary, take steps to fully leverage the benefits of Google Workspace.
By understanding Google Workspace usage in your organization, you can uncover reasons for low or high adoption and make informed decisions on how to improve communication and teamwork within your workforce. For example, if you belong to a change management team, you might need to know whether Google Workspace adoption has increased at the rate you expect, or whether you need to take action to improve apps usage.
Tip: If you're still in the early phase of adoption, review Google Workspace setup resources, which can help you with the transition. For ways to improve apps usage, see Increase Google Workspace adoption.
