Dear Administrator,
We are writing to let you know that your
G Suite legacy free edition will no longer be available
starting July 1, 2022. To maintain your services and accounts, you need to upgrade to
Google Workspace.
We launched our
G Suite legacy free edition —the original
Google Apps offering for businesses and schools— 16 years ago. In 2012 we
discontinued this service, and we will now transition all remaining users to an upgraded Google Workspace paid subscription based on your usage.
What does this mean for my organization?
In 2020, we introduced —
Google Workspace— and tailored our offerings to provide more options to fit our customers’ needs.
Google Workspace includes all the features you already use, plus several new capabilities including more storage, increased security, 24/7 support, and more.
Upgrading from your
G Suite legacy free edition to
Google Workspace will only take you a few short steps and is not disruptive to your end-users.
To support you in this transition, you will have discount options for 12 months after July 1, 2022.
What do I need to do?
To avoid disruption and maintain your account(s),
please upgrade to Google Workspace by May 1, 2022. Begin the upgrade by reviewing the
transition help center article, and selecting the option that best suits your organization’s needs. When you've identified your preferred subscription:
- Go to your Admin console.
- Select your new subscription offering.
- Enter your billing information.
Once you’re upgraded, you can use your new
Google Workspace subscription and functionality
at no-cost until at least July 1, 2022.
If you take no action by May 1, 2022, Google will begin upgrading your organization seamlessly to a new
Google Workspace subscription. The new subscription will be based on what you currently use with your
G Suite legacy free edition.
If you do not enter your billing details before July 1, 2022, your subscription will be suspended.
If your needs have changed and you do not want to upgrade to a
Google Workspace subscription, you can
export your organization’s data with the takeout feature.
