What is G Suite?

G Suite is the former name of Google Workspace, Google’s professional services suite. Available features and limits depend on the selected edition.

Main uses

Google Workspace can include business Gmail, calendars, meetings and collaborative tools such as Drive and Docs. An address like name@example.com uses your domain, which must be verified and configured.

Choose a suitable plan

Check user count, storage, security features, billing cycle and the terms of the offered plan. Do not assume every edition has the same quota or subscription period.

Prepare your domain

1. Check that you control the domain and its DNS zone.
2. Complete the verification requested in the Admin console.
3. Create the required accounts before switching mail services.
4. Configure MX records and sender authentication using the values provided for your organization.

Test the services

Test important user sign-ins and sending and receiving with an external mailbox. Mail DNS and website DNS are separate; moving email to Google does not require moving the website files.

Order or change the service

Review the current offer in your CAP CONNECT Client Area or ask support to confirm the edition, licenses and migration arrangements before replacing an existing mail service.
