SOFTWARE AS A SERVICE
FEATURES
• Storage:-
o Gmail was launched with 1 gigabyte (GB) of storage space.
o On April 1, 2005, the first anniversary of Gmail, the limit was
doubled to 2 gigabytes of storage. Georges Harik , the
product management director for Gmail, stated that Google
would "keep giving people more space forever.
o On May 13, 2013, Google announced the overall merge of
storage across Gmail, Google Drive, and Google+ Photos,
allowing users 15 gigabytes of included storage among the
three services.
o Users can buy additional storage, shared among
Gmail, Google Drive and Google Photos, through a monthly
subscription plan. As of 2017, storage of up to 15 gigabytes is
included, and paid plans are available for up to
30 terabytes for personal use.
• Interface:-
o The Gmail user interface initially differed from other webmail
systems with its focus on search and conversation threading
of emails, grouping several messages between two or more
people onto a single page, an approach that was later copied
by its competitors. Gmail's user interface designer, Kevin Fox
intended users to feel as if they were always on one page and
just changing things on that page, rather than having to
navigate to other places.
o Gmail's interface also makes use of 'labels' (tags) that replace
the conventional folders and provide a more flexible method
of organizing email; filters for automatically organizing,
deleting or forwarding incoming emails to other addresses;
and importance markers for automatically marking messages
as 'important'.
FEATURES
• Tabbed Inbox:-
o In May 2013, Google updated the Gmail inbox with tabs
which allow the application to categorize the user's
emails. The five tabs are: Primary, Social, Promotions,
Updates, and Forums. In addition to customization
options, the entire update can be disabled, allowing
users to return to the traditional inbox structure.
FEATURES
• Spam Filter:-
o Gmail's spam filtering features a community-driven system:
when any user marks an email as spam, this provides
information to help the system identify similar future
messages for all Gmail users.
FEATURES
• Search:-
o Gmail incorporates a search bar for searching emails. The
search bar can also search Contacts, files stored in Google
Drive, events from Google Calendar, and Google Sites.
• Google Voice in Gmail Chat:-
o In August 2010, Google released a plugin that provides
integrated telephone service within Gmail's Google
Chat interface. The feature initially lacked an official name,
with Google referring to it as both "Google Voice in Gmail
chat" and "Call Phones in Gmail". The service logged over one
million calls in 24 hours.
o In March 2014, Google Voice was discontinued, and replaced
with functionality from Google Hangouts, another
communication platform from Google.
FEATURES
• Money Transfer and Payment Options:-
o In May 2013, Google announced the integration
between Google Wallet and Gmail, which would allow Gmail
users to send money as email attachments. Although the
sender must use a Gmail account, the recipient does not
need to be using a Gmail address. The feature has no
transaction fees, but there are limits to amount of money
that can be sent. Initially only available on the web, the
feature was expanded to the Android app in March 2017, for
people living in the United States.
FEATURES
INBOX BY GMAIL
• Inbox by Gmail scans the user's incoming Gmail messages for
information. It gathers email messages related to the same overall
topic to an organized bundle with a title describing the bundle's
content. For example, flight tickets, car rentals, and hotel
reservations are grouped to "Travel", giving the user an easier
overview of emails.
• In June 2015, Google added an "Undo Send" feature to Inbox, giving
users 10 seconds to undo sending a message.
• In November 2015, Google added "Smart Reply" functionality to the
mobile apps. With Smart Reply, Inbox determines which emails can
be answered with a short reply, generating three example responses,
and enabling users to send one with a single tap.
GOOGLE TRIPS
• In September 2016, Google released Google Trips, an app that,
based on information from a user's Gmail messages,
automatically generates travel cards. A travel card contains
itinerary details, such as plane tickets and car rentals, and
recommends activities, food and drinks, and attractions based
on location, time, and interests. The app also has offline
functionality.[
• In April 2017, Google Trips received an update adding several
significant features. The app now also scans Gmail for bus and
train tickets, and allows users to manually input trip
reservations. Users can send trip details to other users' email,
and if the recipient also has Google Trips, the information will
be automatically available in their apps as well.
PLATFORM
• Web Browsers:-
o Gmail's "basic HTML" version will work on almost all
browsers. The modern AJAX version is officially supported in
the current and previous major releases of Google Chrome,
Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer, Microsoft
Edge and Safari web browsers on a rolling basis.
• Mobile:-
o In addition to the native apps on iOS and Android, users can
access Gmail through the web browser on a mobile device.
• Third party programs:-
o Third-party programs can be used to access Gmail, using
the POP or IMAP protocols.
SECURITY
• Google has supported secure HTTPS since the day it launched.
• In June 2012, a new security feature was introduced to protect users
from state-sponsored attacks. A banner will appear at the top of the
page that warns users of an unauthorized account compromise.
• In March 2014, Google announced that an encrypted HTTPS connection
will be used for the sending and receiving of all Gmail emails, and "every
single email message you send or receive 100% of them is encrypted
while moving internally" through the company's systems.
• In 2007, Google fixed a cross-site scripting security issue that could let
attackers collect information from Gmail contact lists.
• Gmail uses transport layer security (TLS) to automatically encrypt
emails sent and received. On the web and on Android devices, users
can check if a message is encrypted by checking if the message has a
closed or open red padlock.

• Google+

GOOGLE BUZZ

tool that was developed by Google and integrated into their web-
based email program, Gmail.

comments organized in "conversations" and visible in the user's

GOOGLE+
• Google+ is an internet based social network that is owned and
operated by Google.

simply "friends") into Circles, a multi-person instant messaging, text
and video chat called Hangouts, events, location tagging, and the
ability to edit and upload photos to private cloud-based albums.

collaboration tools, software and products developed by Google,
