Dear Isaac, With many companies looking to the cloud for their email needs, research firm Radicati has evaluated the options out there. Out of 14 key players they have ranked Google Apps for Business #1 in cloud business email. Here are some of the reasons why: - Built for the cloud. Google Apps was designed as a cloud-based service from the ground up, so IT departments don't need to spend time and money maintaining desktop components.
- Consistent and familiar. Apps delivers the same experience across devices, operating systems and browsers, and many employees already use Google at home.
- A complete package. Apps includes file storage and sharing with Google Drive, real-time collaboration with Google Docs and custom business email with Gmail.
A huge thanks to Radicati for the thumbs-up and, of course, to the more than 5 million businesses that have gone Google. Interested in Radicati's report? Download it now! Sincerely, The Google Apps Team | |  |  |  | "Google Apps was built from the ground up as an entirely cloud-based service, allowing organizations to avoid the administration and maintenance costs of other cloud-based messaging platforms, which typically include desktop components."
