One of the joys of working with Google Apps for Work is the easy team collaboration. When you are all working together with an integrated cloud-based system you save your business crucial time and money. One of the other huge benefits is the ability to customize the system with applications and tools to make your job easier, and help your business run more professionally and more efficiently. Here’s our list of the top five Google Apps for Work tools to grow your business this year.

With WiseStamp for Business your whole team can have a unified team signature, easily managed from one central dashboard. You can add social sharing buttons to your team signatures, and use them to promote what is most important to your business- from an upcoming webinar to an end of year sale or a new blog post. 2. Backupify
When working on Google Apps for Work you want to guarantee the same level of security that you would have if you were working from an in-house IT server. That’s where Backupify comes in. It protects all your data, from emails to docs and calendar invites, and can restore it easily if lost.
3. Boomerang
Boomerang is a fantastic, easy to use tool for sending emails in different time zones. With Boomerang you can set when your email will be delivered, making it easy to work with team members or clients in different locations. In 2015 business has gone global, and you need to be able to connect at a time that is convenient for your contact, even if that is 4am for you.
4. Streak

Streak is a Google Apps for Work add-on that you will use daily. It turns your Gmail into a mini-CRM to help you run your business in the most efficient and time saving way. Like all the apps above, Streak connects directly and securely to your Google Apps for Work system, and will become another tool that you don’t know how you worked before you started using it.
5. Rapportive
Rapportive has had a bad rap since being bought by LinkedIn, but despite losing several features it is still our preferred choice for in-email contact information for Businesses. Rapportive links to LinkedIn profiles, showing you exactly who you are dealing with in your email communication.
Make 2015 count with Google Apps for Work and these fantastic tools and applications. Happy New 2015!
