"By delivering Power Panel on App Engine, integrated with the Google Apps control panel, customers get a familiar experience to help them manage Google Apps more effectively."

"The design and development of Power Panel for Google Apps was driven by the needs of our Google Apps customers. Power Panel extends the Google Apps platform by providing enhanced features to IT support teams that manage Google Apps every day," said Ed Laczynski, founder and CTO of LTech. "For example, with Power Panel, it is much easier for an administrator to configure a user's email forward settings, requiring less effort from the end user. Our goal is to make the day-to-day administration and use of Google Apps easier."
