Movement

This is the first edition on this tier, so no move can be computed for Google Sites yet. From the next edition this section shows, per buyer segment, whether its share moved by more than the measured noise floor.

By model

How each model treated Google Sites across every prompt where it was named for a mid-market B2B company. Twelve models, six prompts per category.

What the models said for it

Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.

“If you already use M365/Google Workspace: Start with SharePoint or Google Sites. It costs $0 extra” Gemini 3.5 Flash · Internal communications · budget prompt · first choice
“Google Sites ⭐ Best Free Choice” Kimi K2 · Internal communications · budget prompt · first choice
“Google Sites can serve as a simple, free intranet platform” Mistral Small · Internal communications · budget prompt · alternative

And against it

Verbatim evidence attached to negative labels. A warning on a product with few labels is a warning; on a product with many, it is one voice among them.

“Microsoft Viva or Google Sites extensions work but lack polish” Grok 4.1 Fast · Internal communications · direct prompt · soft negative

A head-to-head page exists where both products are in a category's top three. The other rows are the same fact without a page behind them, so they link to the product instead.

What carried it into the answer

The sites and pages cited by the answers that named Google Sites. A fact about retrieval, not a lever on the model.

Citations exist only for the models that return a source list, four of the twelve in this edition, so these counts come from 17 of the 21 answers that named Google Sites and are not a share of its labels.

Names read as Google Sites

What the judge wrote, as written, with how often. The vendor table decides that these count as Google Sites; a claim can dispute any of them.

Claim this page

Claiming is free and changes nothing in the data. A claimed page shows a verified contact who is told when each edition publishes and when Google Sites's standing changes by more than the noise floor; the right to propose corrections to the vendor table, meaning names the judge wrote that should or should not read as Google Sites, applied by version and listed in the change log; and a one-line description supplied by the vendor and marked as such.

It does not get any change to labels, shares or verdicts, any preview, or any say over which quotes appear. A verification link goes to your work email; an address at google.com is approved on the spot, any other address is reviewed by hand.

Your name and company appear on the claimed page, or the company alone if you ask below. A title and a LinkedIn address appear there too if you give them, and are left off if you do not. Your email address is never published.
