Keep Gmail and Google Workspace Essentials — Drive, Docs, Sheets, Slides, Meet, and Chat, all free for teams up to 100 people. Pay only for the one thing Workspace's paid tiers really sell you: a professional identity on your own domain.

iAn honest note on this setup
This isn't a workaround — Google Workspace Essentials is Google's own official free product: $0/month, no credit card, no trial period, built for teams of up to 100 people to collaborate on Drive, Docs, Sheets, Slides, Meet, and Chat. It's not a stretched consumer account; it's Google's intended free tier for exactly this use case.
What Google's own pricing FAQ says plainly: if you need custom business email, that's what pushes you into their paid Business plans. SagaID fills exactly that gap — the one piece Essentials doesn't include — without paying per seat for tools you're already using for free.
If your business later needs more storage, longer group meetings, or admin-level controls, that's the right moment to move to a paid Workspace tier. This setup is built for where most growing businesses start, not as a permanent way to avoid ever paying for infrastructure.
