Data loss and corruption represent major challenges in the modern IT environment. SaaS applications like Google Workspace are frequently the target of cyber threats and research indicates that the prevalence, complexity, and associated expenses of these threats will continue to rise in the years ahead. If that's not enough, data is also subject to compromise through inadvertent or deliberate actions such as human error or malicious deletion.
When it comes to Google Workspace data (and cloud data in general), the fundamental rule is "your data, your responsibility." Google's Shared Responsibility Model dictates that you (the customer) bear the responsibility for "your access controls and the data that you choose to store in the application." This means that at the end of the day, the protection of Google Workspace data is squarely on the shoulders of your organization.
Spanning Backup for Google Workspace was purpose-built to simplify the backup and recovery process. The solution comes with robust features and functionalities that may be used by both administrators and end-users. Google Workspace backup software has never been easier to use.

Dependence on workplace collaboration and communications platforms will continue to rise as workforces grow more dispersed.

Over 75% of SaaS customers experience a data loss incident every year. Don’t be another statistic — enhance your Google Workspace data protection and invest in a quality backup and recovery solution today.
Google Workspace backup involves generating and storing backup copies of Google Workspace data, ensuring its ability to be recovered in the event of data compromise. If Google Workspace data is lost or corrupted, the backup data can be seamlessly restored back into the organization's domain, enabling business operations to continue without disruption.
Google maintains backup of primary Google Workspace data to guarantee that your data remains accessible and to support their business continuity and disaster recovery (BCDR) plan. In rare cases, Google may use these backups to restore data or maintain high reliability.
However, these backups are not available to admins or end users and are not used to restore data upon customer request. They exist solely to safeguard Google from mishaps of which they are responsible and are overwritten on defined timelines. Therefore, they do not protect data from errors on your behalf such as user deletion (whether intentional or accidental), programmatic error, malware, etc.
Google Workspace backup is a necessity because ultimately, it's your data and your responsibility. While Google takes extensive measures to ensure your data's safety from any fault on their behalf, they are clear in stating that customers retain the ultimate responsibility for data protection. Below are two excerpts from Google's terms of service:
“When permitted by law, Google, and Google's suppliers and distributors, will not be responsible for lost profits, revenues, or data, financial losses or indirect, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages.” “In all cases, Google, and its suppliers and distributors, will not be liable for any loss or damage that is not reasonably foreseeable.”
Your data is the lifeline of your organization, and data loss events happen every day. While Google may afford you protection from errors on their end, it is your job to protect your data from the ever-prevalent threats that are beyond their control.
The Google Workspace backup process starts by initiating a full backup of all data within your domain. Following this, Spanning automatically conducts daily incremental backups of newly discovered or altered data. If you desire additional backups, you have the ability to perform on-demand backups as often as you see fit.
Each backup is preserved as a specific point-in-time snapshot within your designated backup storage (hosted on the Amazon Web Services cloud). Spanning Backup for Google Workspace offers unlimited retention and versions, enabling you to retain as many backup points as necessary.
In the event of data loss or compromise, you are able to recover data with a swift and straightforward restoration process. Spanning provides a range of features that aid in the location and recovery of necessary data to help facilitate the efficient restoration of your domain.
