Summary Webinar: Highlights Google Workspace and Google Gemini

In our webinar, we highlighted the most exciting new features of Google Workspace and Google Gemini. From improved document organization tools to Gemini Gems AI assistants, these new features are designed to make your day-to-day work more efficient, secure and enjoyable. Here we have summarized a few selected functions and important new features.

‍Smartchips - simplify the process

One of the most exciting new features in Google Workspace is the expanded Smart Chips. They can do much more than just display URLs in Google Docs or Sheets - they now also integrate third-party tools directly. For example, if you insert an Asana link, you get a practical preview that even allows you to start actions directly from there.

This means less switching back and forth between apps and more focus on what is really important. This is particularly beneficial for teams that work with many tools.

Watermarks in Google Meet: protection for content

With the Gemini add-on, Google Workspace customers can now watermark content and video broadcasts in Google Meet . These subtle text overlays display the meeting code and the participant's email address directly above the shared content and video transmissions. 

The goal? Protection. Unauthorized copying and sharing is made more difficult, and both the video images and the shared content remain better protected.

Hosts and co-hosts can activate the watermark at any time during the meeting, and as soon as it is switched on, it is displayed on all screens. Especially when sensitive content is being discussed, this is a simple but effective way of minimizing the risk of unwanted dissemination.

Document tabs for Google Docs: more structured working

Google has introduced a new feature called document tabs in Google Docs that makes organizing long documents incredibly easy. With these tabs, longer content can be divided into smaller, easily accessible sections, making both creating and reading documents much easier.

This new function not only makes content easier to find, but also simplifies collaboration within the team. Everyone can jump directly to the sections relevant to them and focus on the essentials without having to wade through long documents. Simple, clear and incredibly efficient - exactly what we all need.

Google Forms with new options for evaluation

Google Forms has introduced a new question option that makes collecting feedback easier and more appealing: the rating question. You can now use rating scales and work with symbols such as stars or hearts - this not only makes feedback more intuitive, but also more appealing.

Simple, clear visualizations that help you gain valuable insights. This is exactly how feedback should be - effortless and to the point.

Dynamic groups in Google Workspace: automation that saves time

Imagine that your groups in Google Workspace virtually manage themselves. That's the idea behind dynamic groups. They organize their members automatically - based on attributes such as department, location or role. If one of these attributes changes, the groups update themselves. This can save administrative effort.

Dynamic groups not only automate the assignment of rights, but also make communication much easier. Would you like to address the sales team in a specific region? No problem, the dynamic group is already perfectly sorted without the need for manual mailing lists. Simple, efficient and a real relief for admins and teams.

Gemini in Google Workspace: Intelligent support for your work

Gemini is now directly integrated into Google Chat and comes with a whole range of useful functions. It helps to summarize conversations, create to-do lists or filter out important points of a discussion. In short: less manual note-taking, more overview.

And then there are the Gemini Gems. These are AI-supported functions that make it easier for you to compose emails or analyze data. Routine tasks? Leave them to Gemini from now on.

This makes collaboration much more relaxed, especially in teams, because the AI focuses on the essentials and provides you with exactly the information you need. Smart support that makes your day-to-day work easier.

Summarized: Google Workspace and Google Gemini make working easier

Google Workspace and Google Gemini offer you an impressive range of new functions that will noticeably improve your day-to-day work. From smart automation to more security and a clearer structure for collaboration - these tools help you to work more productively and with greater focus.

These updates make everyday work a whole lot easier.
