Thanks for the feed back everyone!

We are planning on using google premiere and have pretty much tested out all sides of things.

I was just looking for some feedback on the address book, which seems to pretty much not be possible.

Thanks for the links James, they helped me confirm that we need to stick to setting up thunderbird with Zindus.

You can use Google apps standard for upto 50 mailboxes at no charge. You get 7.5GB of mail and 1GB of docs. After that you need to go to premiere which is $US50 per mailbox per year. You get a 25GB mailbox and 1GB for docs. If you want to add extensive auditing and control you need to get a Postini subscription (it's like Message Labs)  which costs more on top of that per user. Premiere gives you basic Postini features If you go with a Google Enterprise Partner they can offer discounts (eg. Fronde in NZ). DRD runs entirely on Premier - we have around 220 users integrating OS-X, Lin, Win, iPhone, iPad with a myriad of clients - Thunderbird, Macmail, Outlook etc.

Back to the address book thing - don't have any experience with address books on OSX but googling yielded:

There is no price increase. Google Apps is amazing, you can totally believe it. Escape Studios run entirely on Google for mail, calendar, etc and it's excellent. I would fully recommend it

I have customers with many, many more than 30 mailboxes, and they've not mentioned any price increase.

I haven’t seen anything about the price increasing when you go beyond 30 mailboxes.

Got any sources on this?

 

The reason we are going this route is because it’s cheaper than our current hosted exchange solution, and provides us what we need to easily collaborate with shared calendars and shared contacts(aside from in address book on snow leopard).

So we are delving into the realm of Google Apps for use here at the office for our main email server.
I've so far managed to cover everything except for setting up the address book on snow leopard to list the different address books separately(It seems that it cannot read the different labels and lumps them all together when it grabs them from the google server).
Anyone here have any experience with this at all?

The closest I could find was to go with thunderbird and install a addon called Zindus, to get different address book groups happening.
