Google Apps synch to Microsoft Outlook email

June 10, 2009 · Filed Under News · Comment

Google has synched applications that are available online as services with Outlook email programs, on Tuesday.

Google Applications Sync for Microsoft Outlook would allow the web-based programs by the internet search giant to work with the company’s arch rival and software giant, Microsoft’s email, contacts, and calendars.

This new move from the California based internet giant comes in wake of Google enabling people to use its web-based email service, Gmail, offline and also providing software capable of being operated reciprocally with Blackberry smart phones popular with business users.

At the Google’s official website, Eric Orth, Google’s engineer, wrote, “Over the last year, we’ve had a razor-sharp focus on making it as easy as possible for businesses to deploy Google Applications. Today we’re excited to remove another key barrier to enterprise adoption of Google Apps with Google Apps Sync for Microsoft Outlook.”

Google Apps Sync for Outlook is included in Premier online application packages and will be available for $50 per year.
