Google has announced that from today will no longer be registered for the new service Google Apps (Gmail, Drive ... with your own domain name) for free anymore. Instead, users can create a personal account, or use Google Apps business with the $ 50 / person / year.
The bad news for those who love Google or bloggers that Google has announced that it will stop providing services Google Apps Standard Edition version free to all registered users new again.
Launched from 2006, Google Apps is the first service that allows users to create a Gmail inbox free domain name first without requiring any conditions as hosting anything. This service also integrates Google Docs name, Calendar, Talk to the domain name that helps organizations easily manage and work effectively in a team. Google Apps clear advantages for many other premium service with high quality, good security. This service is a top priority of the smaller organizations to be able to save the cost is not small. This is also the first choice of every blogger when you want to create mailboxes under their domain.
Following the success, Google Apps Premier package continues to introduce Enterprise Edition for objects with a commitment to the stability of up to 99.9% and their success has come with reaching over 5 million paying customers. Along with that Google began offering limited free version limits the user to a domain name from 100 to 50 and now 10.
Recently, blog post, Google said it would not maintain the free version anymore, users can not register now for free that will be introduced to the new version of Google Apps for Business to business objects have to pay charge. However, Google also said the free Google Apps account has been registered previously not affected by the new rules and still be used normally, version of Google Apps for Education for education still register free charge.
As Google explains that individuals, organizations and small businesses to use this free package but actual free package will not meet all your needs when that firm size expanding demands more Advanced features such as 24/7 customer support or require larger capacity mailboxes, or individual users to wait a long time to be added in the package for businesses ready to meet the requirements above. That's why Google Apps package will not be free anymore.
But the reason it is not convincing when not everyone requires the need for customer service or more other features, they simply want to use the Gmail account under their domain that only. So why do they have to give up to $ 50 / user / year for things they do not need?
Apparently, Google is trying to navigate and customers pay their fees. With more than 5 million customers businesses do not need to use Google free package to attract new users, they considered free package is only burden and make the situation more complicated.
Google also noted people that they still maintain service for a free account registered previously andGoogle Apps for Education will continue to be provided free of charge. Also Google will continue to provide services Google Apps for Government to object to the government's $ 50 / user / year.
This was not a pleasure for all of us, this action can Google will push a large number of users switch to use the same service of Microsoft's Windows Live Admin Center when they are not presented limit the number of users on a domain name.
