Gmail in business with $10m win | Australian IT

GOOGLE is poised to cut deeper into Australia's enterprise email market as a result of winning the NSW Education Department contract.

Project management specialist SMS Technology won a deal in July said to be worth $10 million to manage the department's deployment of 1.5 million Gmail accounts.

The project is due to be completed by December.

SMS chief executive Tom Stianos said four organisations with email contracts valued at $60 million had expressed interest in using email systems similar to the department's Gmail system.

The organisations included at least two government agencies and a financial institution, he said.
