      Joe Desuta
   CIO, First Team Real Estate



  November 8, 2012
Agenda

• What is Google Apps and why are we
  talking about it?
• How the landscaped has changed and
  why
• My experience taking First Team to
  Google Apps-- Revisited
Google Apps Defined
• Google Apps is a cloud based email,
  productivity, and collaboration software.
• The market for cloud based business applications
  is heating up

• “We think about 3-4 percent of the enterprise email market is
  cloud-based today,” Matt Cain, an analyst with Gartner, wrote in
  a May 18 email to eWEEK, “and that Google and Microsoft have
  the majority of that market and are close to parity on seat count.”
  By the end of 2012, he predicted, some 10 percent of the email
  market will be in the cloud, expanding to 30 percent by the end of
  2015.
Tools for today's workers

Updated Market share & Predictions
   We believe that Gmail currently has no more than 1% of the enterprise email
   market, but it has close to half of the market for enterprise cloud email, where
   it competes with Microsoft, IBM and myriad small vendors. While cloud email
   is still in its infancy — at 3% to 4% of the overall enterprise email market—
   we expect it to be a growth industry, reaching 20% of the market by year-end
   2016,
   and 55% by year-end 2020.

   Based on this growing demand for cloud email Services, Google's prospects for
   continued success in the email market are strong. At this point, Google should
   be considered the only significant threat to Microsoft in the enterprise email
   market.

Matt Cain, an analyst with Gartner, wrote in white paper 8/18/2011
New Year… New Discussion
• Discussion isn’t about education on what Google
  Apps is anymore.
• Discussion is Gmail vs Office 365
• Enterprise Cloud Email is a main stream
  alternative for consideration, even though it is
  still a niche in share
• Have you seen or heard interest in this market in
  your companies?
What’s changed? Why do we care?
• As part of the June 2011 launch of Office 365,
  Microsoft released a cloud email service based
  on Exchange 2010
• After 5 years, Google is gaining traction with
  larger customers (see table)
• Google has stimulated demand by offering free
  enterprise versions to schools and consumers are
  already familiar with the interface
4 million businesses have gone Google
                                   5,000 more sign-up every day

About First Team
• Founded in by CEO Cameron Merage in
  1976
• # 1 independent Southern Cal, Sold more
  homes in Orange County than any other
  broker in the last 10 years
• 40 locations supporting over 2,000
  employees and agents. Full Service
  including commercial, title, escrow and
  mortgage.
IT Environment before Going Google

• Email was in house on MS Exchange
  Server 2003. Clients were mix of OWA,
  Outlook, and Outlook Express
• Storage requirement for Email Data
  exceeded 4 TB (Terabytes)
• No enterprise collaboration software in
  place at First Team though Sharepoint
  was used for Intranet capabilities
Business Case for Going Google
• Email reliability – Business goal was to
  guarantee uptime for First Team agents
• Cost justify by forgoing the need to
  upgrade Exchange and expanding
  storage needs
• Leverage Google Apps as a means to
  provide a competitive advantage
• Partner with Google for future innovations
Current State of Going Google
• Migration is in progress with about 1500
  users migrated to Google so far
• Switching email systems and providing
  collaboration is transformational…BUT
• Dual delivery allows for migration to
  happen on a per office basis, fostering
  grass roots adoption
• Many users already know the Gmail
  product and it is much better than OWA
Google Apps as a Differentiator
• Google Apps enables collaboration on
  several levels: Company level, Office
  level, Team level, and Agent-Client level
• Early examples include “automated”
  Caravan tour lists and agent-client
  communications.
• Clients are often Gmail users so it makes
  working with our agents easier providing
  the real value of convenience
Google Migration -- Revisited
• Migration harder than it should have been
  better approach: rip-the-band-aid-off
• Grass roots adoption of innovation -varied
• Reliability and Security has been achieved
• Mobile has been easy to support
• Can’t skimp on training even though many
  users already know the UI
• Bad Rep for Enterprise support is earned
  • Constant change to the UI is annoying
Summary
• Going Google was the right bet for First
  Team and merits consideration
• Cloud based email and Apps are on the rise
• Cost justification and ROI can be realized
  given the right set of circumstances
