Follow the link for the enterprise edition of 'Google Chrome 49.0.2623.87' download on this page.

Installing the enterprise edition of Google Chrome may not uninstall nor update the consumer edition. Additionally, problems may occur when installing the enterprise edition of Google Chrome on a computer that already has the consumer edition present. BigFix recommends that the consumer edition of Google Chrome is uninstalled before installing the enterprise edition. Fixlet message "Google Chrome - Consumer Edition Installed" (ID 14011003) can be used to uninstall the consumer edition of Google Chrome.
