I can think of four reasons:
- Calendar, think shared calendaring and appointments. Most web hosting providers don't even provide calendering.
- Mobile, with Google you can sync your mail, contacts and calendar. Most web hosts will only provide IMAP for mail.
- Documents, document storage and collaboration
- SPAM filtering. For most web hosting providers, especially the smaller one. Email is just another service they need to offer. The companies with more dedicated email offerings put more effort into SPAM filtering and tend to product better results.
