What's up with Gmail?

By late afternoon, thousands of users were no longer able to access their Google tools, largely due to a system outage at the North American company. The outage left many users unable to access their emails, as well as related tools like Google Workspace, which brings together tools like Calendar, Sheets and Docs.

What is the alternative?

Although the complete collapse of Google systems has not been restored, the best thing that users can do is to save their tasks, and for this they can use the notepad tool on their smartphones or personal computers, so that they do not lose any of the important information that they were working on.

What do you do when you get back?

While the systems are slowly being restored, the essential step is to remain calm and not try to immediately log in to your Google account so as not to overload the system. After that, you should check if the tasks you were doing are still intact or if they have not been saved. In this type of situation, timesheets and written documents may not have been stored properly, which makes it necessary to evaluate them. To do this, we recommend briefly analyzing your documents. It is also recommended to check if the last emails, those you were sending at the time of the downtime, are always followed up, or if they are stuck in drafts, which also happens.
