I worry about whether the site is legitimate or not to download from.

I found this one on Top Soft Deals. Is this site legitimate?

LINK

Any other suggestions are welcomed.

It would be kind of redundant though since I use Google Apps for business.

I can't be sure, but at that price I would be hesitant. But if you want to try potentially shady sources, go even cheaper.

That site looks shady to me. I don't buy this stuff so I am not sure if this is a good price, however there is another place that has it for the same price as the site you linked plus its a google trusted store. LINK

Maybe someone else can chime in as well

As long as its a Google trusted store, Google will help you with any issues you have and protect your purchase up to $1000. Just make sure you opt in for the protection after check out.

Check your employer discounts. They sell it for $9.95 for many employees of companies that use it in their enterprise.

Then you should call up Microsoft and tell them you want it for $9.95

Just use LibreOffice, or do you need Outlook?

I'm comfortable with using Google Apps for Business. I didn't feel like having a subscription to two. I don't mind paying for the software. Thank you, though.

If Outlook is the holdup to free alternatives, check out Mozilla Thunderbird. Very likely will do what you need it to.

I understand this but the way I would accomplish having just one subscription would be the Microsoft Office365 route and killing Google. After the transition, you'd be left with better software that nearly all business uses and a single vendor like you wish.
