Application value over content privacy

I agree that for large organisations who need to completely protect their information using google apps could be a security risk. The benefit i feel that this solution offers is mainly for small to medium companies who cannot afford, manage or implement an office application suite for collaboration. Even some large organisations such as ours we have a major issue getting investment to create a global intranet or licensing office for all our employees, webmail is always an issue with MS licenses and calendars are always difficult to access for other employees when working remotely.

So i agree this is not a solution for everyone but this is a massive benefit to businesses who need to create a more efficient working platform with collaboration, email, calendar, project management tools without the massive investment.
