UW Google G Suite is a free web-based office suite containing tools for word processing, spreadsheets, presentations, drawings, data storage and online forms. Users can create new documents or upload existing Microsoft Office documents to edit and share with others through in UW Google Drive or Google's Team Drive.

Google Team Drive is a great collaboration space for those who utilize UW Google Drive. Team drives are owned by the Team and not an individual. So when creating a UW Google Team Drive, make sure at least one UW account is associated to the drive at all times. If all the UW accounts withdraw from the particular Team Drive, the last UW person should close this Team drive, discontinue all the external Team Drive members, and/ or transfer the content to another Google Team Drive (perhaps owned by another university). Otherwise a UW Team Drive could end up with only external members with no UW connection. For more information on Team drives, please visit the UW Google Team Drive website.
