From how to take the best photos to how to properly cook a souffle, our titles, including National Geographic, Female Current and Current Kitchen, have been informing and entertaining readers for years. <br /><br />As Director of Information Systems at Prisma Media, it’s my job to keep a finger on the pulse of how our employees are using technology. Just as the publishing industry has had sweeping changes the past few years, so too has the way our employees use technology. Last year, I discovered a few enterprising employees who were forgoing our hosted corporate email system in favor of Gmail. They had reached the limit of their email storage and needed a way to stay productive. <br /><br />Traditionally, bringing outside, unsupported technology into the workplace is fraught with concerns around security, lack of manageability and control. Other companies might have quickly revoked access to Gmail for the employees in question and reminded them of the standard company policy when it comes to using unsupported technology at work. Instead, we chose to look at this as an opportunity and reevaluated our technology environment. <br /><br />We decided to go with Google Apps for Business for a number of reasons. First, Apps requires much less support than our previous solution. Simply by going Google, we cut our IT support calls by approximately 30 percent, which saved us money and freed up our IT department for other tasks. The second reason was cost. By switching to Google we cut our email costs by approximately one-third, which is a lot, especially when you consider we’re getting access to a much better, more modern product. Lastly, the switch itself was seamless. By working with Google Apps Reseller GPartner, we were able to continue to manage and run our business without missing a beat, while GPartner handled the switch in approximately 45 days. <br /><br />Google Apps gives us a more modern, robust and flexible platform at a third of the cost and frees up our tech support resources. It also allows us to do what’s most important: focus on our business.

On our old system, Microsoft® Exchange, we had a large datacenter for the hotels to maintain. Our communication tools weren’t flexible enough to make decisions on the go and we couldn’t guarantee that we were running the same promotions at the same time. We worried about the effect on our guests’ experience. I decided that we needed to move to Google Apps and get off of our on-premise infrastructure.

We work collaboratively across borders and teams, and with a recently implemented restructure it has become even more important to allow the organisation to work together seamlessly. <br /><br />It was these challenges we had in mind when we evaluated our messaging and collaboration tools earlier this year. When we met with Google, we were looking for a secure, efficient and innovative solution that would allow the IT organization to focus primarily on value creation and the business to more effectively work together. <br /><br />We’ve been gradually migrating to <a href="//www.google.com/apps/intl/en/business/index.html#utm_campaign=gogoogle&utm_source=en-entblog-emea-fr-ipsen_30112011&utm_medium=blog">Google Apps for Business</a> since September this year, after a successful six-month pilot phase.

For example, <a href="http://gmailblog.blogspot.com/2011/01/desktop-notifications-for-emails-and.html">desktop notifications for Gmail</a> and <a href="http://googledocs.blogspot.com/2011/04/simpler-file-upload-in-google-docs.html">drag-and-drop file upload in Google Docs</a> require advanced browsers that support <a href="http://slides.html5rocks.com/">HTML5</a>. Older browsers just don’t have the chops to provide you with the same high-quality experience.<br /><br />For this reason, soon Google Apps will only support modern browsers. Beginning August 1st, we’ll support the current and prior major release of Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer and Safari on a rolling basis.

For example, <a href="http://gmailblog.blogspot.com/2011/01/desktop-notifications-for-emails-and.html">desktop notifications for Gmail</a> and <a href="http://googledocs.blogspot.com/2011/04/simpler-file-upload-in-google-docs.html">drag-and-drop file upload in Google Docs</a> require advanced browsers that support <a href="http://slides.html5rocks.com/">HTML5</a>. Older browsers just don’t have the chops to provide you with the same high-quality experience.<br /><br />For this reason, soon Google Apps will only support modern browsers. Beginning August 1st, we’ll support the current and prior major release of Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer and Safari on a rolling basis. Each time a new version is released, we’ll begin supporting the update and stop supporting the third-oldest version.<br /><br />As of August 1st, we will <a href="//www.google.com/support/a/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=33864">discontinue support</a> for the following browsers and their predecessors: Firefox 3.5, Internet Explorer 7, and Safari 3.

This new feature means that every Google Apps user can now help their organization discover and deploy the right web apps. <br /><br /><br /><div style="background-color: transparent; text-align: center;"><div style="text-align: left;"><img height="295" id="internal-source-marker_0.950741124805063" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/oUJnAOp2vMdZHKMUtuPtVOkj-i3ISyQlHNEBj-Gf8U1os6ExTIE6KreOUwfmJ6hGY_hMBQILNucb56PXeGhUsx-EQk6xf4UvVzwdZFoZw_3e7jKqBoaNsSyaCt8VliSw" width="640" /></div></div><br /><br />As always, all Marketplace apps offer single sign-on convenience and hassle-free access through the <a href="http://code.google.com/googleapps/marketplace/images/bar.png">universal navigation bar</a>.

In the past year, we’ve had the pleasure of collaborating with many of the best developers on the web, working to make it easy for you to extend Google Apps with great apps for your businesses or school.

Unlike most providers, we don't plan for our users to be down, even when we're upgrading our services or maintaining our systems. For that reason, we're removing the SLA clause that allows for scheduled downtime. Going forward, all downtime will be counted and applied towards the customer's SLA. We are the first major cloud provider to eliminate maintenance windows from their service level agreement.<br /><br />We're also amending our SLA so that any intermittent downtime is counted. Previously, a period of less than ten minutes was not included. We believe any instance that causes our users to experience downtime should be avoided -- period. <br /><br /><b>Gmail: 99.984%</b><br />In 2010, Gmail was available 99.984 percent of the time, for both business and consumer users. 99.984 percent translates to seven minutes of downtime per month over the last year. That seven-minute average represents the accumulation of small delays of a few seconds, and most people experienced no issues at all. For those few who were disrupted for a longer period of time, we're very sorry, and Google Apps for Business customers received compensation where appropriate. We're particularly pleased with this level of reliability since it was accomplished without any planned downtime while launching 30 new features and adding tens of millions of active users. <br /><br />Seven minutes of downtime compares very favorably with on-premises email, which is subject to much higher rates of interruption that hurt employee productivity. The latest research from the Radicati Group found that on-premises email averaged 3.8 hours of downtime per month. In comparison to Radicati's metrics for on-premises email, our calculations suggest that Gmail is 32 times more reliable than the average email system, and 46 times more available than Microsoft Exchange®.<sup>1</sup><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="//3.bp.blogspot.com/_ysAuSNZolhE/TS_gcNpxzHI/AAAAAAAAAbQ/yYFAU20sSpE/s1600/downtime.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left:1em; margin-right:1em"><img border="0" height="309" src="//3.bp.blogspot.com/_ysAuSNZolhE/TS_gcNpxzHI/AAAAAAAAAbQ/yYFAU20sSpE/downtime.png" width="500"></a></div><br />Fortunately Microsoft Exchange® customers can still benefit from the reliability of Gmail with <a href="//www.google.com/postini/continuity.html#utm_campaign=launch&utm_source=en-na-us-entblog-sla_01142011&utm_medium=blog">Google Message Continuity</a>.
