Upon registering, non-Gmail users may implement Collavate’s post capabilities. Users may upload files to share with teams, add other users, and set deadlines for events. With these capabilities, both non-Gmail and Gmail users may effectively collaborate together through comments, posts, and file uploads.



In order to create workflows, non-Gmail users must sign up for a Google Drive account linked to their non-Gmail email. Non-Gmail users may then have access to Google Drive and other Google Apps such as Photos and Maps. This allows these users to further extend their account capabilities to gain full Collavate user tools.
