Counterpoint: I know of a 20person company that ran off google apps and gmail (under an owned domain) for over a year, and are only transitioning off it to inhouse corporate Exchange after the subsequent acquisition and IPO.

Many use these services, because they're better and more reliable for their purposes than the alternatives available to them. They're making professional choices.

Gmail, like Yahoo and Hotmail and AOL, is sporadically useful for casual
purposes where mail transmission and receipt isn't terribly important.
But it's much too poorly operated to be acceptable for professional use.
And of course it's well-known that attempts to contact a clueful human
behind the Google monolith are nearly always destined to fail.
