Thanks. This particular school doesn't really need collaboration at the moment. But even so, Google Apps is part of the overall package. They really just need e-mail that's been run through a solid spam filter and Google is giving away Postini service to qualifying educational institutions. Combine that with having Outlook and webmail synced all the time and I think it could be a pretty big winner for them.

It works just fine for email, just as the Outlook Connector does for Hotmail/Livemail/etc. But it doesn't provide any collaborative functionality, as far as I can see. ________________________________________ From: Richard Stovall [[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, July 21, 2009 12:04 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Google Apps Outlook sync plugin Other than the plugin disabling Windows Search inside Outlook, does anyone have anything to say about how well or poorly it works? I'm just beginning to evaluate Google Apps Education Edition for a small K-12 school (<100 users) and I'm actually rather keen to test out the sync feature. It seems like MAPI without Exchange, which would be the bees knees for smaller clients such as this particular school.
