Discussion on some apps follows. 

Gmail
You could use you free Gmail account during the initial free 14 day trial. Eventually taking it professional, you would need an email address like you@yourbusiness.com. You would then use Gmail as an email client, as an app or program, to communicate with your clients. You are using the Gmail app program for business.

Calendar
G Suite provides you with an online calendar that helps you to keep track of time and schedules. You can add events from email messages.
As this calendar has additional business features that allow you to share among your coworkers and customers if you wish to announce to your clients your upcoming business events.

Drive
This cloud drive allows you to create, share, collaborate and store all your data and files. Depending on your plan, you get either 30 GB, 1T per user to unlimited storage.
You can even sync files between your devices and the cloud files, regardless if you are using Windows, iOS, or Android based devices such as PC, tablets, smartphones or smartwatches. 

Docs, Sheets, Slides, Sites, Forms, Chat & Meet
Google Docs, Sheets & Slides are similar to Microsoft Word, Excel, & PowerPoint. Here is the list of corresponding apps between Google Suite and Microsoft’s Office 365.

G Suite <-> Office 365
Docs <-> Word
Sheets <-> Excel
Slides  <-> PowerPoint
Gmail <-> Outlook
Keep <-> OneNote
Sites <-> Sharepoint
Google Forms <-> Microsoft Forms
Currents <-> Yammer
Chat & Meet <-> Skype & Teams
Voice <-> Teams

Google had replaced their Hangouts with Google Chat and Meet on the G Suite. Many of us, including our clients, had been using Microsoft Office Suite since early 80’s. Some clients had also moved on to Office 365. However, once we tried Google Voice, we decided to switch completely to G Suite!
