FAQ

How many domain names can I use with G Suite?

You may use G Suite on any one domain on your account, whether it is a primary domain or an addon domain.

Is it possible to migrate all email, contacts, and filers from cPanel to G Suite?

Currently, you are not able to import contacts and filters into G Suite. You can import your email through Gmail, however.

How do I sign into my G Suite account?

In your web browser, go to http://google.com/a/your_domain. Make sure to replace your_domain with your actual domain name. Then you can sign in with your G Suite user name and password.

Will I have the ability to host some email addresses with Google and some email addresses with HostMonster?

At the moment, this is not possible. All MX records will be pointed to G Suite when you purchase it for your domain. There will be no ability to mix HostMonster email and Gmail accounts on the same domain.

Is G Suite compatible with the email client I currently use?

While you can access G Suite mail from the Gmail web interface, you can also send and receive from your favorite desktop client (Outlook, Mac Mail, Thunderbird, etc.). Depending on the client, you can use the IMAP or POP mail protocol. Here is a guide on How to Enable IMAP and POP. If you’re switching to G Suite from Microsoft Exchange or some other Outlook service, you can use G Suite Sync. This is a plugin that lets you use Outlook to manage your G Suite mail, calendar, and contacts.
