Why Google CSV over Outlook CSV
The Google Contacts format supports the flexible data structure of a Mac contact far better than the more limited Outlook for Windows CSV. Whenever your target accepts it, Google CSV is the cleaner choice.
A clean move into Gmail and Workspace
Names, multiple phone numbers and e-mail addresses, addresses and more carry across, so your contacts arrive in Google Contacts organised rather than jumbled.
Great for CRMs and web services too
Many online services and CRMs accept the Google Contacts CSV format, making it a versatile choice well beyond Gmail itself.

"The app does exactly what it says for a reasonable price. Being able to see what the app can do before purchasing is a nice touch."
"I don’t know why Apple doesn’t always make life easy for its users, but this third-party program works well."
