Is the Enterprise Ready for Google’s Chrome Browser?

Google built its new Web browser, Chrome, specifically to be a robust front end for Web applications, particularly Google’s own Docs and Apps products. But should enterprises that deploy Web apps be quick to switch by? Definitely not, say a number of enterprise writers.

Indeed, some observers say, Google’s designs on the enterprise are not about winning market share for browsers, but about creating a wedge in the enterprise that will drive users away from Microsoft Office and

toward Google Docs.

When Google launched Chrome on Labor Day, team leaders Sundar Pichai and Linus Upson described the motivation for creating yet another browser. “We realized that the Web had evolved from mainly simple text pages to rich, interactive applications, and that we needed to completely rethink the browser,” they wrote on The Official Google blog, saying they set out to create a “modern platform for Web pages and applications.”
