  Yeh just as soon as MS comes up with a chunky discount :-) Though the question has to be asked would all of the users in local government be OK to use Gmail from a legal perspective? for example police or social services might have more stringent data protection requirements.

    "Though the question has to be asked would all of the users in local government be OK to use Gmail from a legal perspective?" Sufficiently large organizations don't just accept the click-through EULA. Get a contract and sue if it's breached.

      Ah yes just like the hard bargains and successful contracts the UK Govt has with Capita etal :-)

    Do you really think this hasn't been asked by Boston or any of the other very large Google Apps deployments? The answer is a single Google Search away... https://www.google.com/enterprise/apps/government/benefits.html https://www.google.com/enterprise/apps/government/benefits.h... > Google Apps for Government includes dozens of security features specifically designed to keep your data safe, secure and in your control. This segregated system, for government customers in the U.S. only, was the first cloud-based email application to receive FISMA accreditation from the U.S. federal government.

      MM I think you will find that Boston is a city in the commonwealth of massachusetts and not a "federal agency".

      Office365 is also FISMA accredited no? http://blogs.office.com/b/microsoft_office_365_blog/archive/2012/05/03/fisma-security-certification-office-365.aspx http://blogs.office.com/b/microsoft_office_365_blog/archive/...
