Google Apps for Domains Part III

8 Apr 2007

This is part 3 of my series of posts on the general usability of Google Apps for Domains as a hosting service for email. This one really speaks for itself so I'll keep it short.

It's a bit like those joke Windows error messages that does the rounds.

So all in all how would you rate your google for domain's experience? ;)

They need to make the URL things a bit better, it still redirects to something.google.com. Look and feel customisability could be improved...just a logo change is not quite enough :)

Need to be able to migrate existing Google accounts and all their data to apps - If I have an existing account with them, with heaps of data in it already (GMail & Calendar in my case), I don't want to start from scratch again.

Google is definitely in growth mode though, some of their later offerings are not as polished as the older ones...That error message is quite a mild WTF though, my favourite is the blank error dialog I occasionally get with Outlook 2007 at work...WIth the option to click OK only. :)
