The Google Admin console is where administrators manage Google services for people in an organization. 
Try G Suite with a small number of users. You can run a short 5-step pilot to evaluate Gmail, data migration, and mobile access. 
Skip this step if you already added all your users when you set up your G Suite account.
Start notifying your team about the switch to G Suite. Customize our communication templates with your logo and prepare your users for the transition.
Use the migration tools to import your team’s existing email, calendar events, and contacts to G Suite. You can migrate data directly from Microsoft Exchange, HCL Notes(formerly IBMNotes), or another IMAP server. Or, you can let your team import their data by themselves. You can also create custom directories for teams or groups.
Let your team get email, calendar events, and documents while they’re on the go. Turn on security features and set up your team with G Suite for mobile devices.
As an administrator, you control when your organization receives new features and updates. Features can be added automatically as they are released by Google. Or, you can decide when new features become available.
