Published on 13 Jun 2025, 18:03

Summary: Michael Brenzel, Managing Director of STACKIT, explains how Google Workspace has improved internal collaboration and security at STACKIT, a subsidiary of The Schwarz Group. STACKIT offers a sovereign version of Google Workspace that is used internally within the Schwarz Group and is also made available to external public institutions and companies across Germany. The growing demand for digital sovereignty highlights its increasing importance. Google Workspace has simplified collaboration at STACKIT, streamlined security protocols, and facilitated more efficient workflows since the company transitioned to a browser-based environment. The integration of Gemini further enhances these capabilities with features such as rapid creation of graphics and videos as well as summarization of email inboxes. The result: greater productivity with the highest level of security.

ChallengesPreviously, STACKIT struggled with cumbersome processes such as uploading attachments, complex sharing procedures, and difficult permission management. Additionally, traditional IT systems required constant updates, which was inefficient and posed security risks.The growing threat landscape necessitated a more secure, efficient, and sovereign digital workspace solution.

Solution: STACKIT switched to Google Workspace and developed a sovereign version tailored specifically to the German market. The browser-based environment has since eliminated complex IT issues and allows employees immediate, simplified access to shared resources. Google Workspace fortifies security by reducing the vulnerabilities associated with traditional IT infrastructures. Gemini’s AI capabilities further optimize collaboration by enabling quick content generation and efficient management of email inboxes, boosting productivity while protecting against cyber threats.
