To back up your G Suite (Google Workspace) data, many users start with the manual method using Google Takeout. It allows you to export emails, contacts, calendars, and Drive files. While this method is free, it comes with several drawbacks--it can be time-consuming, doesn't support selective backups, and lacks options for scheduling regular exports. For a more reliable and efficient approach, consider using a professional solution like the Migrate Cloud Data's Google Workspace Backup Tool. This tool supports exporting data to various formats such as PST, MBOX, EML, and PDF. It also allows you to perform selective backups of specific users, folders, or data types while ensuring complete data integrity.
