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 better choice.
A clean move into Gmail and Workspace
Names, multiple phone numbers and email addresses, postal addresses and more are all transferred, 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. That makes it a versatile choice well beyond Gmail itself.
