Did Your Small Business Take Advantage of the 100 new features in Google Apps?
Here are some of the best new Google Apps Features from 2009. Note you may need to upgrade to the premier edition to take advantage of these features.
Google Apps Sync for Microsoft Outlook
If you prefer using Outlook on your desktop but want the convenience and security of cloud computing Google Apps now syncs with Outlook. Enjoy the reliability and affordability of Google Apps, and let your team use MS Outlook if they want. Your small business users can get their email, contacts, and calendars in Outlook while also being able to access all of their data from anywhere on the internet.
Mobile support for BlackBerry, iPhone, and Windows Mobile phones
Speaker of anywhere, you can also access your computer from just about any mobile device including iPhones, iPod Touches, Blackberry and any phones with Windows Mobile. Manage your email, contacts and calendars from anywhere you are connected.
Use Google Gears for Offline access
Google Apps can also be used offline if you have Google Gears Installed. If you don’t have a internet connection you can still get access to your calendar, documents and email.
Shared contacts across your small business Google Apps Space
Premier Edition users can have their admins turn on contact sharing. By creating a global address list for users on your domain, everyone will have access in both the Gmail web interface and Outlook. With this feature, users can access others’ phone numbers, addresses, and custom fields that you define.
Store and Share Documents
This wasn’t added in 2009, but Google recently released the capability to store and share any kind of document in Google Apps. This is a great way to back up your important information and store in on the Google Servers. Best part is, you can access it from anywhere and any computer.
