A smooth Apps move
June 25, 2007
Posted by Vikaram Gupta, Software Engineer, Google Apps
Today, it becomes a lot easier for organizations and schools to start using Google Apps email services without leaving any of their valuable email data behind. Our new self-service mail migration tools enables administrators using the Premier and Education Editions to easily copy existing mail from an IMAP server over to Google Apps. Now businesses and schools can spend less time worrying about "maintaining infrastructure" and focus more on the things that matter most to them -- like
healthcare
or
educating students
.
One of the first organizations to test this out, Central Piedmont Community College, replaced its old email system for 30,000 users in just 3 weeks. And that process came down to 3 million emails flying from their server over to ours in just 24 hours -- more than 2,000 emails per minute, all without missing a beat.
Once you're part of the Google Apps family, you can be sure there are more exciting things to come. In the past month alone, we added
five new improvements
to make it even easier for organizations to share information and work together.
