A 10-person team is the size where Google Workspace feels most natural and where leaving it feels most daunting. You are small enough that Google’s pricing is cheap (€12 to €14 per user per month for Business Standard). You are small enough that you do not have a dedicated IT person. And you are large enough that Google has become the invisible foundation of how your company operates.
This post walks through a realistic migration path for a company of this size. Not a theoretical framework, but specific steps with specific tools, timelines, and costs. The company we are describing is composited from several real engagements, anonymised and simplified.
