Why We Love Google

MSAE's Communications Networking Group discussed the inspiring capabilities of Google products that can help promote your business or association.

Highlights included:


1. Google Apps for Business
  • Includes: Google Docs, Calendar, Mail, Video and Groups
  • When is it a good idea? When your whole organization wants to be on board with Google features
  • Provides more storage - acts as office server
  • Guarantees 99.9% running time
  • Phone and email support from Google
  • Cost is $5/user per month

2. Google+

  • The main difference between Google+ and Facebook is...Facebook has friends and Google has circles that you group your friends in
  • Great tool for interoffice team building or sharing
  • Hasn't picked up much interest since the first big push

3. Google Places

  • Free product to help promote your organization
  • Add pictures, descriptions, and details of your organization
