Google Workspace brings together Gmail, Drive, Calendar, Meet, Docs, Sheets, and Slides for small businesses that want a simple, cloud-based way to work. Staff can send email, share files, schedule meetings, and collaborate on documents from a laptop, tablet, or phone, without managing a server or installing complex software. When it is set up well, the whole team follows the same structure for files, calendars, and sharing, and new staff can get going quickly.
Small businesses often run Google Workspace without a clear structure. Files pile up in personal Drives instead of shared drives. Calendar invites and shared calendars are inconsistent. Sharing links stay open longer than intended. Mailboxes and accounts from former staff linger. Owners handle password resets and access requests themselves, and no one has confirmed what is retained or recoverable if a file or email is deleted.
Security gaps are common and easy to miss. Shared logins, weak passwords, and former staff who still have access can expose client information. Staff use personal accounts for business files because it feels faster. Phishing emails look more convincing every year, and small teams rarely have time to review admin settings, alerts, and device protections. Growth makes it worse: each new hire is set up differently, and each departure leaves a little more clutter behind.
HarjTech supports Google Workspace as part of everyday IT support for small Canadian businesses. We help you set up and administer accounts, organize Drive and shared drives, fix Gmail and Calendar problems, and tighten sign-in and sharing settings. We coordinate with Google support when an issue needs their side, and we document how your setup works so it does not depend on one person remembering it. The goal is practical: a Google Workspace setup your team can trust and use without constant IT friction.
Yes. HarjTech helps small businesses set up Meet and Calendar for meetings, scheduling, and remote work, including meeting settings, shared calendars, guest access, and file sharing during meetings. We troubleshoot common problems such as audio and video issues, invites that do not arrive, and files that attendees cannot open.
We also help you set up a consistent remote-work routine, so staff working from home or on site follow the same steps for meetings, file access, and support. If you use Meet for client meetings, we help you make that experience reliable and professional, without adding complexity your team will not use.
On the scoping call, we will review how your team uses Google Workspace today, agree on what needs attention first, and outline a practical next step so you can decide with clear information.
The scoping call is a working conversation, not a sales pitch. We ask how your team uses Gmail, Drive, and Calendar today, what is breaking or slowing people down, how onboarding and offboarding work, and what you want to protect. If you can share a screen, we can look at your current setup together.
After the call, we outline what we would fix or set up, what we need from you, and a realistic timeline. Investment is confirmed on the call based on scope, so you know what is included before any work starts. You leave with a clear next step, whether that is a cleanup, a migration, or ongoing support.
HarjTech documents what was checked and what was changed, so your team knows how Google Workspace is set up and what to do when a new issue appears. This documentation keeps the setup consistent even when staff change.
Both. Some businesses need a fixed-scope project, such as a migration, a Drive cleanup, or a security review. Others want ongoing support for user changes, troubleshooting, and small improvements over time.
On the scoping call we help you decide which fits. If your Google Workspace is basically sound but keeps drifting, ongoing support often makes more sense than repeated one-time fixes. If you have one clear project, a fixed-scope engagement may be enough. Either way, we document what was done and what to watch for, so the next person who supports the system does not start from zero.
If your team is unsure where to start, begin with the scoping call. We will listen to how your team works, identify the most useful fix first, and leave you with a clear plan you can act on.
Yes. HarjTech plans and carries out email and file migrations into Google Workspace from Microsoft 365, Gmail, another Google Workspace tenant, or an older mail or file server. We start by reviewing your current mailboxes, folders, and file storage, and agreeing on what should move, what should be archived, and what can be left behind.
We migrate in stages, check samples with you, and confirm that email, calendars, contacts, and files land in the right places. We also help you update signatures, shared inboxes, and forwarding rules, and we coordinate the cutover so your team can keep working with as little interruption as possible.

Google support can help with a specific product issue, but it does not know how your business is set up, who should have access, or how your Drive and calendars should be organized. A break-fix shop can fix a single problem, but often leaves the underlying structure untouched, so the same issue returns.
HarjTech combines both views: we fix the immediate problem and we fix the setup behind it. We learn how your team works, document your Google Workspace structure, and stay available for the next issue. That continuity is what turns Google Workspace from a set of apps into a reliable platform for the whole business.

Yes. HarjTech often takes over Google Workspace administration from an outgoing staff member, a break-fix provider, or an owner who has been handling it alongside everything else. We start by reviewing your admin console, accounts, sharing settings, and documentation, and identifying what is missing.
We then agree on who handles what going forward, gather the access we need, and set up a clear support path for your team. If the previous provider holds credentials or records you need, we help you request a clean handover. The transition is planned so email, files, and meetings keep working while the support behind the scenes changes.

HarjTech is accountable for the support you receive. Work is delivered by HarjTech and, where needed, by vetted subcontractors working under HarjTech's direction. You have one point of contact with HarjTech, and we coordinate the work behind the scenes.
We do not present subcontractors as Google employees and we do not claim a Google partnership or certification we do not hold. If a task requires Google support, we coordinate with them and keep you informed. On the scoping call we will explain who would handle your setup and ongoing support, and how communication and follow-up will work.

It depends on how many users, mailboxes, and files you have, and how much cleanup is needed. A small cleanup for a handful of users can often be completed in days. A larger migration with many mailboxes, shared files, and calendars takes longer because we migrate in stages and check samples with you along the way.
On the scoping call we will ask about your user count, current storage, and timing constraints, and outline a realistic schedule. We plan cutovers to reduce interruption, and we keep you updated so your team knows what to expect at each step.
