Office 365 vs Google Apps webcast

I’ve just participated in a Google Hangout with Richard Tubb, Owen Kane and James Kimberly discussing the merits of cloud solutions like Google Apps and Office 365.

The inspiration for this chat came about after Richard Tubb moved from Office 365 and particularly Outlook, to Google Apps. There he found additional functionality with a number of productivity plugins. This move garnered some strong reactions on Google Plus which tended to focus on the technology. Hopefully, this webcast proves that it is the information that is important to the customer. So if you are expecting fireworks then you’ll probably have to wait till we no another webcast.

Have a look and let me know what you think and how we can improve this. Also if you have some topics you’d like to see discussed then by all means send them along to me at director@ciaops.com.
