Which business email are you using for a custom email domain and why: Google Workspace, Outlook or something else?
My sister recently opened a plant nursery and is trying to set up a custom email domain for it. She asked for my help but the more I research, the more it seems like Google Workspace and Outlook are the default options, but they might not be the best for her small business needs.
From what I have seen, google workspace looks easy and convenient at first, but the costs add up very fast, especially when you need multiple inboxes. On the other hand, Outlook seems good too, but I have heard mixed reviews about its usability and setup, especially with those recent issues with it not working on Android and Apple phones. Since she wants to keep her costs low, she is looking for a provider which is easy to use and manage for professional emails.
I feel that it does not make any sense to pay premium pricing for neither Google Workspace nor Outlook. I also came across some other business email providers like Proton Mail, Zoho Mail, and others too, but the information I find just feels overly promotional and frustrating.
So, people who have been using these providers, what is your take on them and what made you choose it?
What professional email provider should I go for that is affordable and easy to set up?
