Password sync for Google Apps has been a long standing issue for Google’s otherwise comprehensive business suite. With the release of AuthMagic for Google Apps, we took a step forward and produced an in-depth examination of our two password sync options: Web Single Sign-On for Google Apps with Password Sync and AuthMagic for Google Apps.
