No, they've promised some as of yet undefined ability to move to consumer google accounts. Because of the limits that gsuite accounts have had for consumer products over time, this is something people have been asking for and google hasn't delivered in quite some time, so until they announce details, I'm expecting many strings attached to the migration process if it's something they've been pressured into doing quickly.
- extra88 5y agoAs explained in the Techcrunch regurgitation of an Ars Technica article [0], in addition to the migration, they're also inviting small (<10), non-business users to identify themselves, dangling the possibility of a better option for them (which might be a continuation of G Suite Legacy as-is, a slightly cheaper pricing tier, or something else). Nothing is happening to G Suite Legacy until May so there's no need to get off it now. It makes sense to start researching options now but there's plenty of time to wait and see what happens.

- Macha 5y agoI know about the survey and signed up for it, but I'm not really expecting much. Probably a month in there'll be an upsell on gsuite business, then offers of reduced introductory rates, before finally details of whatever the migration option is for those who didn't take them up on introductory offers.
