Web Applications That Increase Productivity


More than two million businesses run a Google Applications (Google Apps) system. It is a reliable, secure web-based office suit of tools for any size business. Powerful, intuitive applications like Gmail, Google Calendar and Google Docs can help reduce your IT costs and help employees collaborate more efficiently. Google’s web-based messaging and collaboration applications require no hardware or software and need minimal administration.  This creates a tremendous time and cost savings plan for businesses. A leading research firm found that Google Apps is as little as 1/3 the total cost of competing solutions.

Proven Cost Savings

Each employee gets 25 gigabytes for email storage so they can keep important messages and find them instantly with a built-in Gmail search. Gmail is designed so employees can spend less time managing their inboxes, and more time being productive. Time-saving features like message threading, message labels, fast message search and powerful spam filtering help employees work efficiently with high volumes of email.

Uptime Guaranteed

Google Apps will be available at least 99.9% of the time, so your employees are more productive and you can worry less about system downtime. With synchronized replication, your data and activities in Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Docs and Google Sites are simultaneously preserved in multiple secure data centers. If one data center is unable to serve your requests, the system is designed to instantly fall back to another data center that can serve your account with no interruption in service.
