You can import or export contacts from both iCloud and Google, so exporting from iCloud to Google or vice versa is possible -- and easy -- without paying for any third-party service to do it for you.
From iCloud to Google Contacts:In the Contacts app on macOS, select a contact followed by Cmd-A to select all contacts. Then select File > Export > Export vCard... and save it. Head over to Google Contacts and select Import from the sidebar, then find the file and select upload. Note that this may take some time to process, depending on the size of the vCard.
How To Sync Google Contacts With Outlook
From Google Contacts to iCloud: On Google Contacts, select Export from the sidebar (note that as of the time of this writing there is a 'preview' version of a redesigned Google Contacts, which doesn't support exporting yet. If this is still the case when you attempt this, you can temporarily switch back to the old version from the sidebar) and save as a vCard for compatibility with the macOS Contacts app. Once the file is created and downloaded (make sure you export all contacts in the export dialog) go to the Contacts app and select File > Import... where you can find the downloaded file from Google Contacts and add it to your Contacts app. Depending on your sync settings, the imported contacts may immediately start uploading to iCloud; if they do not, you can select one and press Cmd-A to select them all, and then drag them to your iCloud contacts folder in the app to move them over.
If you have both iCloud Contacts and Google Contacts syncing into the Contacts app on macOS already: Simply select one contact from the source service, press Cmd-A to select them all, and drag them to the desired location to move them. If you wish to copy them instead of move them, you can press Cmd-C to copy them to your clipboard (after selecting them all with Cmd-A) navigate to your desired destination for the copy and press Cmd-V to paste them.

I hope this helps. Remember that you can always leave your contacts where they are and view them together on both macOS and iOS, provided the accounts are both being synced with that device and Contacts are enabled in settings for both services; just make sure you set which service you want to save new contacts to by default.
