They feel that the Education Edition of Google Apps, their hosted suite of communication and collaboration tools which is free for educational institutions, fits well with the need among nonprofits for easy-to-use, flexible technologies requiring little or no investment.

Included are email migration, 24/7 assistance and integration APIs, in addition to the standard email, calendaring and online document collaboration tools.

“We’re always looking for ways in which the technologies we develop can support education and action on the range of global and local issues affecting our world,” said Google Enterprise Product Director Matthew Glotzbach.

NTEN members also discussed their experiences with Google Apps at the meeting.
