Why teams look beyond Google Workspace

Google Workspace is excellent at email, calendars and documents. The trouble starts with the work they're about.

Projects live in another app

Google Tasks keeps to-do lists, so client projects with owners, stages and dates end up in another tool. In ADLR, projects and tasks sit beside the email they come from.

Invoices and HR are extra

Google's plans cover email, files, meetings and chat. Invoicing and HR mean more products to buy and connect. ADLR includes them in the seat.

Mail that turns into work

In ADLR, Adi sorts incoming mail and drafts replies, and a rule on your domain's mail can turn an email into a task.

Where Google Workspace still wins

An honest list, so you can decide with your eyes open.

Google wins

Writing together, and Slides

Several people can write in the same Google Doc at once, with comments and a history of changes, and Slides makes the decks. ADLR's Docs and Sheets are edited by one person at a time, and a deck you upload opens as a preview.

Google wins

Meeting recordings

On Business Standard and up, Meet records meetings to Google Drive. ADLR doesn't record: a Room keeps each meeting's chat and files, and Adi writes the minutes when AI is on.

Google wins

More storage

Google pools 30 GB a person on Starter, 2 TB on Standard and 5 TB on Plus. An ADLR workspace holds 100 GB of files.

What you keep from Google Workspace

Your address, your calendar and your files. What changes is everything around them.

  • Email on your own domain
  • Gmail and IMAP mailboxes, connected
  • Invites with RSVPs
  • Docs and Sheets
  • Video meetings in the browser
  • Guests join from a link
  • Channels and DMs
  • Office files, with previews

Built for the way client teams work

Dev shops

A project's chat next to the build

Each project has its own chat beside its tasks, and Tasks has a GitHub view, so a question in chat is one click from the work.

Agencies and services

From the client's email to a paid invoice

Client email on your own domain, the contract they sign and an invoice they can pay by card, all in one workspace.

Remote teams

Stand-ups that keep their notes

A Room keeps a team's meetings, chat and files together, with Adi's minutes when AI is on.

Switching, with help

Moving your domain's email is a DNS change. Here is how teams move over.

  1. Book your onboarding call

    Thirty minutes with us, and you leave with a migration plan. Migration help is free.

  2. Point your domain at ADLR

    Add your domain in Settings and copy the records ADLR shows into your DNS: MX for incoming mail, SPF, DKIM and DMARC for sending.

  3. Bring your mail across

    Connect each Gmail account over IMAP while you move, and import older mail from MBOX files.

  4. Switch on a quiet day

    New mail arrives in ADLR once the MX record changes. Keep Google Workspace until everyone's mail has moved.

Questions teams ask before switching

No. ADLR is $5 per user a month from the first seat, with email, calendar, docs, chat, meetings, projects, HR and finance included. Pricing for larger teams is custom; contact sales.

Yes. Point your domain's mail at ADLR and you send and receive as you@yourcompany.com. You can also connect Gmail and other IMAP mailboxes.

Yes. Connect the Gmail account over IMAP and keep reading it in ADLR, or import its mail as MBOX files, up to 100 MB each. Google Takeout exports Gmail as MBOX.

ADLR has its own Docs and Sheets, edited by one person at a time. For several people writing at once, comments and Slides, Google's editors are ahead. Office files you upload are kept with a preview.

ADLR has its own calendar and doesn't connect to Google Calendar. Invites go out as .ics files, and guests answer from the email, whichever calendar they use.

Yes. Meetings run in the browser with screen share, and meetings inside your ADLR workspace have no time cap. Guests join from a link, with nothing to install.

Yes. Adi, ADLR's built-in AI, comes with every seat. It sorts incoming mail and drafts replies, and works across your projects, tasks, calendar and deals.

Yes. ADLR runs in your phone's browser, and you can add it to your home screen.

We plan your move with you: your domain's DNS records, bringing your mail across, and setting up projects and the team.

Keep the email. Lose the ten tabs.

One workspace where email, calendar, docs, chat, meetings, projects, HR and finance live together, with Adi working across your inbox, projects and calendar.
