Mountain View, California -- Just as we reported last month, Google has finally opened up a new online app store for Google Apps called Google Apps Marketplace today, continuing its push into the enterprise, providing a venue for third-party, cloud-based applications to supplement Google's own online applications.
The new Google Apps Marketplace becomes live tonight with 50 applications presently available from third-party vendors, said Chris Vander Mey, a senior product manager for Google.
The new Apps Marketplace intends to allow independent software developers to sell their products directly to around more than 25 million users of Google's suite of Internet-based applications, and more than 2 million businesses using Google Apps with a large range of different third-party applications in the cloud, it announced Tuesday, opening a Google Apps Marketplace that could be a commercial counterpart to Apple's wildly popular app store for consumers.
