Can exceptions be made for individuals that are not able to meet the new quota limitations?
In order to address this change imposed by Google, the University recently purchased a subscription to Google Education Plus that permitted the campus the ability to provide the above-noted quotas. If a user has storage needs that exceed the limitations noted in this document, please send an email to Tracker@fredonia.edu so that ITS can discuss appropriate options.
It is important to note that as of March 29, 2022, out of the over 22,000 current Fredonia Google workspace users 8.1% are currently using more than 15GB of Google storage.
What is the current cost of the campus Google Workspace and Duo MFA licensing?
Fredonia is currently working to decrease the 22,000 Google Workspace accounts to approximately 10,000 by July 1, 2022. These accounts include students, faculty, staff, alumni, emeritus, affiliates, and departmental accounts.
Using 10,000 Fredonia Google Workspace accounts the costs include the following:
Google Workspace Education Plus Ed. - $4.26 x 10,000 accounts = est. $42,600 paid annually
Duo Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) - $4.40 x 10,000 accounts = est. $44,000 paid annually
Since the campus is required by regulatory compliance and our cyber liability insurance to protect all email accounts with MFA moving forward, the total annual spend to maintain approximately 10,000 Google Workspace accounts is $86,600.
