Google recently discontinued the free version of Google Apps for small businesses. Previously, you can use Google Apps for your small startup business for free (up to 10 users).
However, now, there is only the premium version, Google Apps for Business, which includes:
- 24/7 phone support for any issue,
- 25GB inbox, and
- 99.9% uptime guarantee with the price of /user/year.
You still can sign up on a 30-day free trial if you want to test Google apps out. But if want to try out Google Apps for your business for the long term, there is a simple solution to sign up for Google Apps for yourself (1 user), and for free.
