Free Apps Account

Google Killed Free Google Apps for Businesses

"With this in mind, we’ve decided to make things very straightforward. Starting today for all new customers:

  • Individuals wishing to use Google’s web apps like Gmail and Google Drive should create a free personal Google Account, which provides a seamless experience across all of our web services on any device.
  • For Businesses, instead of two versions, there will be one. Companies of all sizes will sign up for our premium version, Google Apps for Business, which includes 24/7 phone support for any issue, a 25GB inbox, and a 99.9% uptime guarantee with no scheduled downtime. Pricing is still $50 per user, per year.

Please note this change has no impact on our existing customers, including those using the free version. And as before, Google Apps for Education will be available as a free service for schools and universities. Also, as the first cloud productivity suite with FISMA certification, we’ll continue to offer Google Apps for Government for $50 per user, per year. "

Re: [google-appengine] Re: Google Apps No Longer Free

Hello Everyone,

The Apps Standard account you have today will continue to work for free.  If you create a new Apps account going through the App Engine Admin Console you'll still be able to create a Standard Apps account for free but you'll only be able to get 1 user per account rather than the 10 you get today.

Let me know if you have additional questions,

Greg D'Alesandre

"Google App Engine can be used with Google Apps to provide a custom domain name for your internet-facing application, e.g., myapp.com.

By default, when you deploy your service on Google App Engine, your service will be accessible at [your-application-id].appspot.com. In order to provide a stronger brand experience for your application, you may also want that application to be available at [my-brand].com or www.[my-brand].com.

In order to set up these branded access locations for your service, you must prove that you own the domain name or purchase the domain name through Google. Google App Engine allows you to prove ownership of your domain and purchase new domain names using Google Apps.

In addition, Google Apps provides a number of communication and collaboration services, which can be used to enhance your application. You can communicate via email with your application users using branded email addresses and the Gmail experience. You can also create public wikis for your service using Google Sites. See http://google.com/a for more information about what you can do with Google Apps. If you own your domain, on the Google Apps sign-up page, select 'Administrator: I own or control this domain' Then, enter the name of your domain and proceed through registration. When you're finished, you'll be viewing the Google Apps control panel for your domain. From the control panel, you need to verify ownership of your domain.

Once you've verified your domain, follow these instructions to get started with Google App Engine:

  1. Sign in to the Google App Engine admin console.
  2. Go to Administration > Application Settings
  3. Click the 'Add Domain...' button under Domain Setup.
  4. Enter your domain name in the 'Domain Name:' field
  5. Click 'Add Domain'. You will be directed to the Google Apps administrator console to complete the process.
  6. Log in to the Google Apps control panel with your administrator account.
  7. Accept the terms and specify the access URL you'd like to provide for your application.
  8. Click 'Accept'.

At this point, you may need to follow the presented instructions to make changes with your domain registrar if you did not purchase your domain name through Google.

Note: You must sign up for Google Apps to register this domain or prove that you already own it.

If you do not have a Google Apps domain, App Engine users can sign up to a single-user Google Apps Standard account for free.

Deploying your application to a domain of your choice

"To begin, you'll need to sign up for Google Apps. If you don't already own your domain, you can use Google Apps to register it.

If you do not have a Google Apps account, you may sign up to a single user edition of Google Apps Standard for free - for the purpose of managing your custom domain. You can do so from the Add Domain section of the App Engine Admin console for your application.

To take advantage of all the features of Google Apps, including multiple users, support and the full suite of Google Apps applications, you should associate your domain with a Google Apps for Buisness account.

To deploy your application to your Google Apps domain, find the 'Domain Setup' section on the 'Application Settings' page. Click the 'Add Domain...' button which appears there.

On the next screen, enter the domain on which you wish to deploy your app and click 'Add Domain...'"

Allow less secure apps to access accounts

We have added a feature that allows you to block sign in attempts at the domain or Organizational Unit level from some apps or devices that do not use modern security standards.

See the Frequently Asked Questions section below for examples of apps that do not support the latest security standards.

Since these apps and devices are easier to break into, blocking them helps keep your users' accounts safer.


Enabling less secure apps to access accounts:

  1. In your Google Admin console (at admin.google.com)...
  2. Go to Security > Basic settings.
  3. Under Less secure apps, select Go to settings for less secure apps.
  4. In the subwindow, select the Allow users to manage their access to less secure apps radio button.
