I am pretty sure google doesn't have filesharing, other then it's documents. You might be able to do something with its pages function.
You also might want to look at Zoho, it is very similar to google apps, but has a few other options which might be closer to what you are looking for. It doesn't have a briefcase, but you can upload non-office files using the planner. A combonation of Zoho or google apps with Yahoo briefcase (http://briefcase.yahoo.com/bc//home) may be a good solution.

We've been using Apps since the general release, over a year now. We only have four users at the moment, but the collaboration features in Apps are very nice.

I like the interface, it is a full web-based collaboration suite, with calendars, briefcase's (this is your file shareing), tasks, documents (kinda like a light version of google docs), and more. There is an Free OpenSource version or you can pay for a support package. I'd put it on the list to look at.

They have a few objectives: 1. Manage coverage of a physical facility/project (Ie, bill is on from 9-2, sam is on from 1-5-- fairly simple) 2. Manage sales calendars (again, fairly simple -- nothing too complex) 3. Share files between users 4. Have a forum for discussion. Bonus points for a solution that integrates nicely with a Wiki, CRM, etc. They don't have a deticated server of any sort -- just a standard run of the mill hosting package for their existing website. We sat down today and hacked at Joomla and EGroupware, and EGroupware seems to be pretty close to what they need (its ugly and slightly cludgey though). We are no against integrating software packages (the Joomla hackery we did integrated a Google calendar to meet goals 1 and 2) -- but failed horribly at 3, and . well.. at that point we kicked it to the curb.
