Frequently asked questions
Three common reasons: (1) Cost — Business Starter is ₹136/user/mo and Standard is ₹672/user/mo, both with annual commitment. Indian SMBs often overpay ₹20,000-₹50,000/year for features they don't use. (2) Vendor lock-in — Google can (and does) suspend accounts with limited recourse. (3) Support — you can't call Google. If you like Docs/Drive/Meet, keep them separately; AIC handles the email + calendar layer at half the cost.
