What do you like best about Patronum?

1) Seamless management & automation of almost all of Google Workspace administration tasks.

2) Organisational chart and ability to share contacts

3) Calendar management & sharing within your organisation to avoid scheduling conflicts.

4) E-mail signature management and AWESOME signature templates. Most unique signature templates I've seen till date. We changed our old signature the day afer we started using Patronum.

5) Auto on-boarding of users with pre-defined access to files & folders.

6) User off-boarding with Patronum allows you to save data from deleted users' accounts. Very helpful feature for data protection Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Patronum?

Nothing in particular, but there's certainly scope for more functionality with backing up emails & drive contents.

I would really like to see this tool automatize everything that a WorkSpace admin has to do manually. Not really a great tool for companies with single digit headcount, works wonders for large companies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Patronum solving and how is that benefiting you?

I run a small business, but even small companies face big challenges when it comes to managing IT infrastructure. We've tried other similar software solutions in the past, but Patronum is the best one we've ever used. The most useful features of Partonum for our organization are:

Fully automatized on-boarding & off-boarding of users.

Organizational chart

Contact sharing

Calendar sharing & management

Task Sharing

Google Drive Management

Inbuilt Email Signature Templates

Using Patronum has saved us hundreds of hours of effort that went into managing redundant & repetitive tasks. Needless to say, this tool pays for itself several times over in just one month. :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Incentivized Review
What do you like best about Patronum?

Patronum offers cloud-based synchronization whose execution can be automatically scheduled. Its user interface is effectively integrated with our administration console and we won't have complexity while handling the LDAP directory. It also enables our users to search for any individual records without exposing the location specifics. The distribution of our LDAP can also be done among multiple servers and Patronum ensures proper replication and helps in passing requests to other directory system agents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Patronum?

None actually. Patronum utilizes exchange servers for communicating with our active directory. Each user's account information is properly maintained even when there are multiple attribute definitions. All our repetitive tasks can be conveniently automated and the policy engine will make sure to update all user logs and their settings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Patronum solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use Patronum for retail marketing & sales management in our organization. It acts as a centralized platform for our team as we work on various collaborations, proposals and client presentations. The company's branding is upheld even if there is huge traffic & we also obtain insights to understand our customer expectations. With these features, we can focus on improving our sales & how we can engage congruously with our lead generation prospects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Patronum?

What worked for us were:

- Signature distribution based on a group or a single user

- Drive files management

- Ease of use Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Patronum?

There were some downtime periods and interruptions where the settings would not "stick" and the page would reload constantly. These were rare, unfortunately.

The signature management dashboard needs some work also. The HTML doesn't reflect what you've copied into sometimes - so be careful if you paste an existing signature into Patronum's signature box. What comes out may not look the same (this is in GMail) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Patronum solving and how is that benefiting you?

The biggest thing for us was signature management for new employees and re-assigning Drive files for someone taking over a position that belonged to someone else. It used to be a bit hectic, but the program saved us a lot of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Patronum?

Patronum is by far one of the best Google Workspace administration tool we used. We love the email signature offering as well as the other Gmail settings that we can push to our users. For us what makes Patronum so special is the level of support we get from their support team directly within the application. I would recommend Patronum to every Google Workspace administrator wanting to make their job easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Patronum?

Nothing, it does exactly what you need as a Google Workspace adminstrator Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Patronum:

We love the responsiveness of the Patronum team. We tried other more expensive products in the Google marketplace and were very disappointed by the lack of support and customer care. The team at Patronum are super knowledgeable and want to help us, instead of trying to up sell us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Patronum solving and how is that benefiting you?

Before Patronum, creating and managing Google Workspace users was a complete pain, we are a fast-growing organisation so the onboarding and offboarding features are a great time saver. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Patronum?

Managing email signatures for the whole org within minutes, even with individual signatures for different groups, is a big plus, according to my marketing department. Label sharing helps us internally to share all contacts easily. With the on- and offboarding workflows, my Google Workspace admin life became more straightforward, focusing on my main tasks easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Patronum?

My big wish would be to extend the features of this tool, so I can do even more within Patronum and have to use the admin console even less. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Patronum:

Talk to Patronum to get a Google partner referral. I found one which offers us Patronum for free. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Patronum solving and how is that benefiting you?

Settings depending on the department and position of a user can be easily changed by Patronum. To reflect the change of a user within Google Workspace to a different department always took time. Now it's a few click actions and easily repeatable correctly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Patronum?

I love the ability to easily share contacts with the team. It enables us to have a simple shared contact system that we control and enables us to show the callers we have stored in our CRM and synced with one Google Account.

Additionally, it is super easy to automate our user management for our admins and have them controlled by our People Management team that does not currently work with an HR tool. We give them access to a restricted Patronum account to create, manage, and disable end-user accounts and have the rest of Google Workspace segmented away from them.

The marketing team loves the automated signatures too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Patronum?

I'm not too fond of the fact mass edits of file sharing settings and other huge tasks across the entire domain still require us to use GAM. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Patronum:

Consider the amount of time you, your team, or other teams spent doing repetitive tasks and see if this product can help alleviate most of your problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Patronum solving and how is that benefiting you?

We solve for missing sharing settings in contacts and the missing Google Voice integration with our CRM. These stop our call center team from understanding who is calling them. Enabling contact sharing between a central account and all call center people resolves this issue mostly.

Additionally, we save time on repetitive tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
