Genesi today announced it has become an authorized reseller of the Google Apps™ suite of communication and collaboration tools. Genesi's hardware and software products integrate Google Apps to offer a flexible solution for thin client and Cloud Computing technologies.

“The Google Apps Reseller program will help us enhance the value of Google Apps for users of thin client and remote desktop technologies," said Raquel Velasco of Genesi. "Google Apps Premier Edition offers a broad set of powerful APIs that enable us to provide provisioning, authentication and integration of Google technologies into our thin client product line".

Google Apps brings simple, powerful communication and collaboration tools to organizations. With Google Apps, users can use applications such as Gmail™ webmail service, Google Talk™ instant messaging service, Google Calendar™ calendaring service, Google Docs™ program, Google Sites™ web application, and Google Video™ for business on their own domain to work together more effectively. Best of all, it's all hosted by Google, so there's no hardware or software to download, install or maintain.

The Google Apps Reseller program includes resellers, consultants and independent software vendors that sell, service and customize Google Apps Premier Edition for their customers. Genesi received training, support and deployment services from Google, as well as access to APIs for integrating Google Apps into their customers' business operations.
