      The name change makes sense, but the name G Suite is just terrible. I can understand Google not wanting people to confuse Google Apps with Android type Apps. Because they really aren't just apps they are an office suite.

        Even Google Suite would have been better. Or just Google Office (unless that is trademarked).

          The irony is that I am sure they spent thousands testing the performance of this name change. It makes you wonder what the other options were...

            Probably a sickening amount was tested on focus groups. They must have only focus tested on the hip millennials who think saying Google is too much work. I'm sure they are now saying G it instead of Google it.
