What is the purpose of selecting the "Manual" option for new products in the G Suite Admin console?
The purpose of selecting the "Manual" option for new products in the G Suite Admin console is to provide administrators with full control over the deployment process and to allow for a more customized and tailored approach to managing new products within the G Suite environment.
When a new product is added to the G Suite Admin console, administrators have the option to choose between automatic and manual deployment. The automatic deployment option allows for a streamlined and automated process where the product is automatically enabled for all users in the organization. On the other hand, the manual deployment option provides administrators with the ability to selectively enable the product for specific organizational units or groups of users.
By selecting the "Manual" option, administrators gain the flexibility to carefully evaluate and test new products before making them available to users. This is particularly useful in situations where organizations have specific requirements or policies that need to be considered before rolling out new features or applications. It allows administrators to ensure that the new product aligns with the organization's needs and security standards.
Furthermore, the manual deployment option also enables administrators to control the pace at which new products are introduced to users. They can choose to enable the product for a small group of users initially, gather feedback, and make necessary adjustments before gradually expanding its availability to a wider audience. This approach helps to minimize disruption and allows for a smoother transition to new technologies or features.
In addition to control and customization, the manual deployment option also provides administrators with the opportunity to train and educate users on the new product. By selectively enabling the product for specific users or groups, administrators can focus on providing targeted training and support, ensuring that users have the necessary knowledge and skills to effectively utilize the new product.
To illustrate this, let's consider an example. Imagine a large organization that wants to introduce a new collaboration tool within their G Suite environment. By selecting the "Manual" option, the administrators can first enable the tool for a small team of early adopters. This team can then provide feedback and suggestions for improvement, while also acting as ambassadors who can help train and support other users when the tool is eventually rolled out to the entire organization.
Selecting the "Manual" option for new products in the G Suite Admin console allows administrators to have full control over the deployment process, customize the rollout based on organizational needs, evaluate and test new products before wider adoption, and provide targeted training and support to users. This approach ensures a smoother transition, minimizes disruption, and maximizes the value of new products within the G Suite environment.
