Google Apps: easy, collaborative workgroup communication with Gmail and Google Calendar Messaging overview Google Apps messaging tools include email, calendar and instant messaging solutions that help employees communicate and stay connected, wherever and whenever they work. These web-based services can be securely accessed from any browser, work on mobile devices like BlackBerry and iPhone, and integrate with other popular email systems like Microsoft Outlook, Apple Mail, and more. What’s more, Google Apps’ SAML-based Single Sign-On (SSO) capability integrates seamlessly with existing enterprise security and authentication services. Google Apps deliver productivity and reduce IT workload with a hosted, 99.9% uptime solution that gets teams working together fast. Gmail Get control of spam Advanced filters keep spam from employees’ inboxes so they can focus on messages that matter, and IT admins can focus on other initiatives. Keep all your email 25 GB of storage per user means that inbox quotas and deletion schedules are a thing of the past. Integrated instant messaging Connect with contacts instantly without launching a separate application or leaving your inbox. No software required. Built-in voice and video chat Voice and video conversations, integrated into Gmail, make it easy to connect face-to-face with co-workers around the world. Find messages instantly Powerful Google search technology is built into Gmail, turning your inbox into your own private and secure Google search engine for email. Protect and secure sensitive information Additional spam filtering from Postini provides employees with an additional layer of protection and policy-enforced encryption between domains using standard TLS protocols. Centrally-managed content filters enable companies to create custom inbound and outbound policies to keep sensitive information safe.
