Collaboration training

While much has been said about Google Apps for domains as an alternative to Microsoft Exchange or Office Live, Google’s suite is most compelling for distributed businesses or groups that do not want to center their email and collaboration around Microsoft’s desktop software. With Gmail’s outstanding spam filter, document collaboration, easy configuration and reliable email independent of the website host, there’s a lot to like about Google Apps. But it also has its quirks. I recently deployed Google Apps to our nonprofit organization of 10 users, taking advantage of Google’s program that offers the free Education edition to qualified US-based 501(c)3 nonprofits. ***
