But according to Google Workspace Support on Twitter "there’s no connection between Google Workspace Essentials Starter and the G Suite legacy free edition, it is therefore, not a transition option.”*<p>Does this make sense to anyone? Why not allow former legacy users to migrate to this new free plan?<p>*

It doesn't address the criticism from many legacy Google Apps users using custom domain email and drive / calendar for our families.<p>It would be great if they would at least provide a reasonably priced option. I don't mind paying, but paying $7/mo per account just seems like they're ignoring personal use rather than business use.<p>I'd be willing to pay $10 or $15/mo for up to 10 personal accounts.
Not including custom email domains makes this feel like giving with one hand and taking with the other. Not interested in video chat, document editing et al, only interested in the email aspect of it. This could literally be appended to a free Gmail account for all I care.
