    Will we be able to control installed apps as well or only the default Google Apps?

    This is the type of innovation that sets Google apart from Microsoft.

    All we need now is the ability to have a mix of paid and free gmail accounts for the one domain!

    Excellent! This is a nice change. Would also be nice to populate groups based on sub-organizations rather than just "Add everyone in domain". Give an inch, take a mile ... :)

    I love these new features, but you have taken away some very basic and necessary functions. I can no longer sort by account/user status. I can't get a list of all the email addresses associated with our domain. Also I can't comment in the forums or help center because I have to login and it won't accept my corporate ID, I must use my personal gmail account, which I don't want to do. And it appears I'll have to use my personal gmail account to comment here too. So very sad.

    So how do I get this on my education account. I've looked at the control panel and there is no "Organizations & Users" I still see "Users & Groups". I DO have the Next Generation control panel checked.

    Still waiting on word with rollout to Education and Non-Profit editions to this feature. At Ümloud, we're still at the old dashboard even with "Next Generation" enabled.

    I love this. Now I can finally choose email adresses on a user by user basis. info@xxx.com can now go to a different user than info@yyy.com - Nice. But Google seems to have forgotten that groups also have a email adresses. It is still only possible to make a group based on the main domain name. So you can not have a group that catches all emails to eg. marketing@xxx.com and marketing@yyy.com if xxx.com is the main domain because you can not add email aliases to a group.

    For a large school district considering Google Business Apps being able to create OU's is clutch! Good job! However, you hit the tree but missed the target; now lets create distribution groups based on a users OU and this is a BINGO!

    Hope you add this feature soon... sadly still a Google Squasher...

    Great feature *BUT* it really needs to also include the ability to manage access to Marketplace Apps. I was really excited by that possibility only to be disappointed to find it was missing.

    This is a huge step in the right direction... but it's really missing some things to make it useful.

    I can turn all sites off for each group, but I can't restrict the engineering site to the engineering group.

    Please extend these permissions to more than turning on and off entire applications and make it more granular.

    You have half of what I've wanted since I moved my first company to Apps!

    This is excellent. Now if we can get some group level controls for some of the apps. For example it would be great to be able to create a group or sub-organization that can have access to mail and chat, but limit it to only use within the domain. Same with mail.

    That is my number one wish for Google domains right now!

    Google is giving much more priority to the paid users and ignoring the standard free users.

    I hope google adds these features albeit in basic form for its standard unpaid users as well.

    I would love to have 2 features, 1. creating organisation structures and 2. adding signature to all outgoing emails, in the standard edition.
