I don't use any Google apps, or even have a Google account. It's not so much a matter of trust; it's a matter of usage. Google looks like a search company, but in practice they're a data-mining company for targeted advertisement.
On the whole I don't see a migration away from Exchange to Google Apps as a big win; they're both still platforms that lock you into a system that you don't control, but Google goes one step further and mines that data.
I don't mean "Google is Evil!" with that -- this is what their company is about, and it of course makes business sense for them. But for this sort of infrastructure I'd prefer not to rely on them. Hint: nobody seems to love MS, but their business seems to be doing quite well.
