Hello there.  
What is your experience about using G-Suite/G-Business as a provider for sending the Mautic email marketing campaigns? Do you have an idea about the pros/cons?  
Thank!

It depends how many emails you want to send. If it is under 100 emails / day, than there are no cons I think.

Hey,  
You will hit Gmail’s limits, which is around couple hundred.  
In fact it can change based on your sending habits, account type:  
[https://support.google.com/mail/thread/47871468?hl=en](https://support.google.com/mail/thread/47871468?hl=en)  
But Google Workplace emails might be higher.  
I don’t see any reason why not to use a professional email provider if you send 12.000 emails / month.  
That is already bulk amount.  
Using Gmail for this is like Amazon delivering by a skateboard.
