How we move your email to Google Workspace (without losing emails)
1. Check your DNS
We look at your current domain, MX records and mail server before touching anything.
2. Create users
Mailboxes, aliases (info@, sales@), groups and email signatures for every employee.
3. Copy old emails
Old emails, contacts and calendars are copied from cPanel, Microsoft 365 or Zoho while you keep working.
4. Switch MX records
We switch the mail records at a quiet time (usually a weekend) and run a final sync so nothing is lost.
5. Secure the domain
SPF, DKIM and DMARC are set up so your emails reach the inbox and nobody can fake your domain.
6. Train & support
Short Arabic/English training for staff and support from our Al Khobar team afterwards.
Google Workspace or Microsoft 365: which is right for you?
| Google Workspace | Microsoft 365 | |
|---|---|---|
| Feels like | Gmail, browser-first, very simple to use | Outlook, Word, Excel desktop apps |
| Best for | Teams that live in the browser and on mobile | Companies that depend on desktop Office files and Windows device management |
| Meetings | Google Meet | Microsoft Teams |
| AI | Gemini included in Business plans | Copilot Chat included; Microsoft 365 Copilot is an add-on |
| Aramco CCC / NCA | Possible with the right setup and add-ons | Business Premium covers MFA, Intune and Defender in one licence |
We supply and support both, so we recommend what fits your company. See our Microsoft 365 page and Microsoft 365 for Aramco CCC.
Where is Google Workspace data stored? An honest answer
Google Workspace data is stored in Google’s global data centres. Google offers data regions for the United States or Europe on some plans; it does not offer a Saudi Arabia data region for Workspace today. The Google Cloud region in Dammam is for Google Cloud services, not for Gmail or Drive.
If your company or your customer requires email data to stay inside Saudi Arabia, tell us before you buy. We will compare the options with you, including Zoho Mail with Saudi data centres, so you choose with the full picture.
What affects the cost of business email?
- Plan (Starter, Standard or Plus) and number of users
- Flexible plan (add or remove users any month) or annual plan (fixed users for the year)
- Migration from your current email system
- Domain registration and DNS setup if you need a new domain
- Training and ongoing support
Licences are supplied through our Saudi distributors. You get one clear proposal for licences and setup after a free call.

Business email & Google Workspace: frequently asked questions
How do I create a company email with my company name?
You need a domain (for example yourcompany.com or yourcompany.sa) and an email service such as Google Workspace. We connect the domain, create mailboxes like name@yourcompany.com and set the security records so your emails reach the inbox.
Which Google Workspace plan should I choose?
Business Starter is enough for professional email and basic meetings. Business Standard adds 2 TB storage per user and meeting recording, and suits most companies. Business Plus adds Vault archiving, legal hold and stronger security. Use the planner on this page or ask us.
Will I lose my old emails when I move?
No. We copy old emails, contacts and calendars before switching the mail records, then run a final sync after the switch.
Can you move us from Microsoft 365, Zoho or cPanel email?
Yes. We migrate from Microsoft 365, Zoho Mail and hosting/cPanel mailboxes, and from free Gmail or Hotmail accounts.
Is Gemini AI included?
Yes. Gemini AI is now included in Google Workspace Business Starter, Standard and Plus. Standard and Plus get more Gemini features in Docs, Sheets and Meet.
Is Google Workspace data stored in Saudi Arabia?
Not today. Google Workspace offers data regions only for the United States or Europe on some plans. If you need email data inside Saudi Arabia, we will compare other options with you before you buy.
Who owns the admin account?
You do. We set up the account in your company name and give you full super-admin access. We can manage it for you if you prefer.
What is the difference between the Flexible and Annual plans?
On the Flexible plan you can add or remove users any month. On the Annual plan the number of users is fixed until renewal, but you can add users at any time.
Google Workspace or Microsoft 365?
Choose Google Workspace if your team works mainly in the browser and on mobile. Choose Microsoft 365 if you rely on desktop Office files, Windows device management or Aramco CCC controls. We supply both and will advise honestly.
Do you support companies outside the Eastern Province?
Yes. We are based in Al Khobar and visit companies in Dammam, Jubail and Dhahran. Email setup and migration are done remotely, so we support companies across Saudi Arabia.
