Google Apps Contacts Best Practices

[scjoyce]

I recently started working for a company that uses Google Apps; I
currently use Google Apps for my personal email, contacts & calendar.
Because I can only sync with one Google account from within the
Windows Mobile client, I'll default to my corporate Google Apps
account and share my personal calendar with my corporate calendar. For
contacts I will have to get all my personal contacts into my corpate
account.

I currently have ~400 contacts and sync takes a long time (haven't
quantified it exactly). I suspect that my business contacts will grow
over time but can easily get over 1000 in the near term. Do you have
any suggestions for speeding up the Contacts sync so that it's not
just in a perpetual sync state or any suggestion on how I can manage
my contact records to make this more efficient? Also, do you see any
other limitations in general I should be aware of related to Google
Apps contacts, Windows Mobile contacts or your sync client related to
this scenario?

Thanks for your opinion. Keep up the good work. If I can get this all
setup and working well in my new corporate environment, I'm sure I'll
get you a few new Pro users too!

[OggSync Support]

Currently OggSync does a full sync. When we have incremental sync
working, it should be much faster (although not instant). Currently
it's communicating with Google that takes most of the time.
