Find Answers To Commonly Asked Questions
What editions does Google Workspace for Education offer?
Google Workspace for Education offers Education Fundamentals to all qualifying institutions at no cost (free). For those that want more premium features, Google also offers paid editions including Education Standard, the Teaching and Learning Upgrade, and Education Plus.
Are there differences in storage across editions?
All editions provide schools with 100TB of storage shared across the institution.

Can I have more than one edition at the same time?
You must have an Education Fundamentals edition to upgrade to any of the other editions (Education Standard, the Teaching and Learning Upgrade, or Education Plus).
You cannot have Education Plus in combination with Education Standard or the Teaching and Learning Update — only Education Fundamentals.
You can have a combination of Education Standard and the Teaching and Learning Upgrade at the same time. Although we believe the maximum value of those combined editions can be realized in Education Plus, we wanted to be as flexible as possible to school community needs.

Yes, Google offers automatic discounts for customers that contractually commit to a multi-year purchase (two years or more) of Google Workspace for Education Plus.
