Google Apps Appeal

When most think people of Google, they picture free apps and services supported by ads. But a lot of Google wares have real price tags, including the enterprise version of Google Apps. And with paid products often come dealers -- and Google Apps can now claim nearly a thousand resellers. A big chunk of those are service providers who sell the apps as part of their overall service.

Many customers are apparently going with Google, not because of the cloud and access from anywhere, but because it's so cheap.

Do you use Google Apps or any other Web-based productivity tools? Are they any good? Let us know at [email protected].
