Keep G Suite, but buy your own domain (whatever.com) so you are in total control. If they ban you, just change DNS records to point to zoho or some other provider.


> Keep G Suite

Why, so Google can pull the rug out from under me at the least opportune moment?


And lose all the emails and Google docs associated


This also requires maintaining decent backups of the gsuite emails, calendars, contacts, and drives that people are using.


Which is good practice anyway, just in case of an outage, or someone hacking your account, or whatever.

But I agree, too risky. Just stay away from Google. Cons outweigh the pros, for me personally. The only thing I used it for was sheets, docs and gmail. LibreOffice is more than adequate for me, and far better than the Google alternatives.
