Google is raising prices for the basic enterprise and small business versions of its G Suite productivity apps, like Gmail and Docs, for the first time.

The 20 percent price increase comes soon after the appointment of Thomas Kurian, a former Oracle executive, as the head of Google's Cloud division. While the news that Kurian would replace former CEO Diane Greene was announced last November, he only formally took on the role this year.
