This is the reason why I will always recommend to not go with Google at my company.

I asked Google during an RFP when I can use my paying personal workspace for things like reminders or Google Home (and invite my family). It was "right the corner". The corner is now what, 5 or 7 years away.

This is a company I am with for a bit less than 20 years, but I will leave.

Maybe they could use Bard to help them fix all of the bugs they’re loathe to ask humans to deal with? That was one of the under appreciated-mistakes which tanked new Google products: many of their most enthusiastic users signed up for Google Apps for Domains, and then Google blocked them from using and evangelizing everything they launched for the next decade.

I’ve seen another variation of this at work: we have two domains registered with G-Suite, Google professional services ghosted on a consolidation process, and this means that only one of those sees the licenses. They block all access to services when you’re logged in to the other domain, even just to view a third-party’s shared document unless you buy a second license for the same person. This has been a slow gravitational win for Office 365.

Even if you have many workspaces, keep a gmail account too. This conundrum has been true for many years now.

> I'd love to use bard, but I was dumb enough to pay for a custom domain and workspace.

I suspect this is because they can't use Workspace data for improving the models.

Having a custom domain does not prevent you from also having a separate gmail.com account.
