Pros & Cons
GGemini for Google Workspace
Pros
- Gemini is included in Workspace plans, so there is no separate AI subscription to buy or manage.
- Gemini sits in a side panel and inline controls inside Gmail, Docs and Meet, so staff can use it without leaving the apps they already work in, and reviewers found it quick to deploy.
- Google says customer data is not used for model training, and Gemini respects existing Workspace DLP, IRM and client-side encryption controls.
- Gemini Notebook, Vids and Flows extend the assistant into document research, video creation and simple cross-app automation.
Cons
- An ITPro hands-on review found Sheets output frequently inaccurate.
- Every licensed user pays for the bundled AI whether or not they use it.
- Business Starter excludes Gemini in Docs, Sheets, Slides, Drive and Meet.
- G2 reviewers note generic responses and weak support for non-Google integrations.
- Gemini cannot act on content encrypted with customer-managed keys, and it may respond slowly at peak demand.
Lindy
Pros
- Agents can be built from a plain-English description or a template, without coding.
- Covers a lot of work out of the box: email triage, scheduling, meeting recording and notes, and phone calls.
- Computer use lets agents operate web apps that have no API connector.
- More than 1,500 integrations plus MCP support, including Gmail, Slack, HubSpot and Salesforce.
- SOC 2, GDPR and PIPEDA compliance, with a stated policy of not training models on customer data.
Cons
- Every action, including voice minutes, uses one credit pool, so costs are hard to predict and reviewers report credits running out quickly.
- Monthly credits do not roll over.
- Trustpilot reviewers complain about billing problems and slow or unreachable support.
- SSO, SCIM, audit logs and HIPAA are limited to the custom Enterprise plan.
- Third-party reviews describe some integrations, such as help desk connectors, as shallow.
