G Suite for Education enables sleek, silo-free and smart learning solutions

Smarter everything

Smarter everything – G Suite for Education lets your staff and students create, access and present content for the next generation classroom with learning that is:

• Personalised and measured: Learning is tailored to individual needs and interests.

• Collaborative and diverse: Learning is no longer an isolated, self-driven process. It is transformed into a collaborative, critically engaging and social experience.

• Project-based and self-managed: The teacher-as-provider-of-knowledge model is modified so students can take ownership of their learning, and delight in doing so.

• Authentic and experiential: The learning paradigm is broadened significantly beyond the simple acquisition of knowledge, so students move to a deep conceptual understanding of the content.

Collaboration

Students and staff use secure tools and storage that allow for easy, instant, ongoing collaboration and editing.

Constantly connected

Everyone can work together from any device, any place, any time. Offline Apps mean you can keep working even without the internet.

Cost, time and resource efficiency

One simple and reliable solution for email, calendars, documents, and more means you save time on setup and maintenance.

Through its Chromebooks for Education offering, Google has sought to provide schools with a device that delivers superb functionality at low cost in an effort to help them bridge these limitations.

Chromebooks are affordable computers running on Google’s Chrome Operating System. G Suite is built in so you are set up for Cloud management systems from the get go.

Advantages of Chromebooks

• Simplicity: lightweight, durable laptops designed for students − easy to use, set up and manage.
• The device boots up in less than 10 seconds, with a battery that lasts all day.
• Affordability: low total cost of ownership. You’ll pay 60% less for one, compared to a laptop with similar specs.
• Google Play Store integrated: latest models run huge numbers of Android Apps, come with touch-response programming and world-facing cameras.
• Secure and shareable:  Everything is in the Cloud. You’ll get seamless collaboration, with integrated security feature.

Google Cloud Platform (GCP) – an industry-leading, premier Cloud Computing platform

Build, test and deploy applications on Google’s highly scalable and reliable infrastructure for your web, mobile and backend solutions. GCP declutters IT-related complexities. It has the scalability to handle the most demanding workloads.

Through Google Cloud Platform, we offer a full spectrum of Cloud products and services for computing, storage, networking, big data, machine learning, operations, and more.

Compute

With GCP we’ll help you to get the perfect engine for your workload. From global, load-balanced, resilient services to flexible single-instance virtual machines, Grove provides a scalable range of computing options through GCP you can tailor to match your needs.

Storage and Databases

Different applications and workloads require different storage and database solutions. Whatever your needs, Grove has you covered. Get solutions that fit your scenarios, whether it’s mobile applications, hosting commercial software, data pipelines or superior storage backup and recovery tools.

Big Data

• The ability to leverage your data to gain otherwise hidden commercial and strategic business insights is indisputably valuable to organisations across every industry, of every size. In some industries, including but not limited to, retail, advertising, and financial services, it’s actually a matter of survival.
• With GCP we offer a proven, integrated, end-to-end big data solution. Capture, process, store and analyse your data within a single platform. Focus on finding insights, rather than managing your infrastructure.

Machine learning

• Google Cloud's AI provides modern machine learning services, with pre-trained models and a service to generate your own tailored models.

• Our neutral net-based ML service has better training performance and increased accuracy compared to other large-scale, deep-learning systems.

• Our services are fast, scalable and easy to use. Major Google applications use Cloud machine learning, including Photos (image search), the Google App (voice search), Translate, and Inbox (Smart Reply).

• Our platform is now available as a Cloud service to bring unmatched scale and speed to your business applications.

• Machine learning helps you future-proof the ability to bring pre-trained, tailored App models into the Cloud without the need for complex data training.

Chromebooks – inexpensive, fast and functional Cloud-compatible computers

If you haven’t yet made the quantum leap to Chromebooks, consider these advantages:

• They are the easiest computers to set up and manage.

• They power up quickly and are ready in seconds, thanks in part to the lightweight nature of Chrome.

• You’ll pay more than 60% less for your Chromebook, compared to a laptop with similar specs.

• Chromebooks are an excellent return on investment – no more having to buy expensive new software. Self-updating features and seamless integration with Android Apps mean the longer you have your Chromebook, the greater your reward.

• They are largely self-maintaining – Chrome has built-in malware and virus protection that always self-updates.

• Latest models run huge numbers of Android Apps, with more available on the Google Play store, further simulating the conventional laptop experience on Chromebooks. Android Apps such as Microsoft Outlook and Adobe mean you simply won’t regret your transition to Chromebooks.

• Latest models come with touch-response programming, a stylus and world-facing cameras.

• Chromebooks are the face of next level secure, agile computing tools.
