We need to limit storage for OU

[ggalli]

 Since the total storage has been limited to 100 TB, it is essential that Google implement a way to limit the storage quota per user or per Organizational Unit, otherwise it is very difficult to control that those 100 TB are not exceeded. Organizations with thousands of users need it to continue using Google Workspace. Even buying licenses, it is impossible to control the excesses.

Hi

i believe it’s good suggestion what you didn’t posted in future features ideas community

@ggalli  Just to be clear, we are talking about the 100TB baseline for storage that Google implemented for the Education customers, correct?

-KAM

[ggalli]

Yes.

[KAM]

@ggalli then I agree this should be a feature request.  I have a feeling a LOT of education customers have missed the 100TB limit.   You can always buy more storage for the pool but I agree, an OU setting would be ideal.

Yes, even buying more storage, it should be possible to limit by Organizational Unit. The solution of buying more storage is limited, the real solution is to be able to manage the storage.

I agree with the proposed solution.
