“Your storage is full” - You must have found this message a number of times while uploading a file on your Google Drive, adding a new video or photo to Google Photos, or even keeping emails stored in your mailbox. Finally, Google is ending this hassle to manage storage for Google Workspace Individual accounts. In an attempt to support users to expand their businesses, communicate, and collaborate more effectively, Google is now increasing the current 15GB free storage to 1TB.

“Soon every Google Workspace Individual account will come with 1 TB of secure cloud storage. You don't have to lift a finger to get the upgraded storage: Every account will be automatically upgraded from their existing 15 GB of storage to 1 TB as we roll this out,” Google announced in a blog post. Google further agrees that while growing a business, it is obvious that users will need more docs, data, and digital assets to manage and store. Google Drive comes as a savior in such a situation. It allows users to store over 100 file types, including PDFs, CAD files, and images.

According to the company, “Google Workspace Individual is a paid offering that helps individual business owners grow, run, and protect their businesses. While these customers now have 1TB of storage, users with a standard Google Account will maintain 15GB of cloud storage at no cost (not 1TB)."

Moreover, users can easily collaborate on and edit Microsoft Office files without converting them. Not just that, Drive comes with built-in protections against malware, spam and ransomware so users don't have to worry about accidentally opening the door to malware just by opening a document.

How to get an upgrade from 15GB storage on Google to 1TB?

You don't need to do anything! Google will automatically upgrade the storage cloud data limit on every Google Workspace account from 15GB to 1TB. All you need to do is continue using the current service and you will have access to 1TB of storage to store files, documents, and other stuff without any extra charges.

Currently, Google offers three monthly plans of 100GB storage for Rs. 130 per month, 200GB storage for Rs. 210 per month, and Rs. 650 per month for 2TB storage plan.
