Case Study: University College Dublin saves time and cuts costs with Google Workspace for Education

University College Dublin saves a significant six-figure sum with Google for Education

University College Dublin, a major university in Ireland, needed to provide its 32,000 students and 6,000 staff with reliable, easy access to email and productivity tools without overburdening its IT department. Their previous on-premise email system was costly, labor-intensive to maintain, and offered a poor user experience with limited storage. The university turned to Google for Education and its Google Workspace for Education suite to find a better solution.

By implementing Google Workspace, specifically Gmail, Google Calendar, and Google Sheets, Google for Education provided a cloud-based solution that eliminated the need for expensive server hardware and maintenance. The results included a significantly improved user experience, the spontaneous adoption of collaborative tools for teaching and planning, and creative new workflows. The university also achieved substantial cost savings, quantified as a six-figure sum, from reduced hardware and software costs.
