This can only be achieved if teams work closely together, sharing expertise and ideas and communicating constantly. <br /><br />We used to have 180 email domains and 40 mail systems in place, so finding contact details and responding quickly to colleagues was a challenge. To tackle this, in 2009, we moved 35,000 business users, including our ‘on the road’ service technicians and salespeople onto a single communications platform, Google Apps. <br /><br />Since switching to Google Apps, we’ve saved millions of pounds (£) on IT maintenance and several hundred thousand pounds by cutting the time spent on administrative tasks through using tools such as Google Docs, Sites and Forms. For senior management, Hangouts have also proved their worth, saving roughly 54 hours of the senior management’s time a week - that’s over 2,000 hours a year. <br /><br />As well as maximizing productivity, online sharing through Google Apps has meant we can now use the group’s size and combined expertise to our advantage by spreading knowledge and ideas organically across countries and divisions. <br /><br />Individual teams have fully embraced the opportunity for knowledge sharing, using the group intranet, powered by Google Sites, to post training videos and access technical images. But it’s not all about official documents and meetings: online sharing is helping us to become a more personal, sociable organization, which is important for staff retention and working culture. Colleagues use our intranet to share personal achievements, from sleeping on the streets for a homeless charity to boxing in international championships, giving a true flavor of the diversity within the company. <br /><br />Employees at all levels are embracing Google Apps to connect with colleagues. For example our UK Managing Director uses Google+ to post updates and pictures of his ‘road trips’ across the UK and his encounters with colleagues, from the CFO to our longest standing pest control technicians, providing new insight into his role in the business. Our 35 graduate trainees also have their own Google Group to share work experiences in the company. The ability to connect directly with our executives and create communities amongst our new employees is radically changing and modernizing the culture of our company. <br /><br />All in all, we’ve been amazed by the journey which Google Apps has taken us on, connecting our teams no matter where they are and no matter what they’re doing and making a difference in almost every corner of our business. Thanks to Google Apps we see ourselves as better connected, able to offer a better service to customers and more competitive on a global scale.</div> </script> <noscript> <div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><span class="byline-author">Posted by Peter Shorney, Global IT Operations Manager at Rentokil Initial</span><br /><br /><i><b>Editor's note:</b> Today’s guest blogger is Peter Shorney, Global IT Operations Manager at Rentokil Initial, an international services business based in the UK.

Our customers come to London from all over the world for business and pleasure, and it’s our job to make sure their stay is as comfortable as possible. <br /><br />Our key market is composed of international travellers who are spread across the world in different timezones, so I wanted to build an international team from the start. From day one, we’ve used Google Apps as our main form of contact, including Gmail, Hangouts, and a <a href="http://support.google.com/a/bin/answer.py?hl=en-uk&hlrm=en&answer=167430" target="_blank">collaborative inbox</a>. We wouldn’t be where we are today without it. We now have more than 20 staff spread across the world, from the Philippines, to London, to the US and Australia, and they are able to quickly respond to queries from their local markets, instead of waiting for the sun to rise in London. <br /><br />Hangouts have allowed us to recruit and hire over video conference, rather than fly around the world to meet candidates.

We also started using Google Hangouts for staff training. <br /><br />It can be difficult to create a sense of community with a globally distributed team. But with Google+, we’ve formed an internal social media network where employees can share their water cooler moments online. From wishing a member of the team happy birthday to sharing a funny online video, our employees are better connected. <br /><br />The collaborative inbox feature within Google Apps has transformed our communication from frantic to efficient. When we first started, all email enquiries came into my inbox and I delegated tasks to staff. This was great for keeping track of everything, but quite hap-hazard. Collaborative inbox allows me to distribute and track responsibilities among the team. If a customer reaches out with a query about a specific property, a group of my employees can easily access the inbox, guaranteeing a response within minutes. I can also ensure quality control and consistency across our customer communications by storing template query responses, apartment specifications, and internal documents online in a shared folder that my teams can access. <br /><br />Google Apps has helped me start and grow an international business in a way that simply wouldn’t have been possible for a start-up ten years ago. As testament to this, we’ve tripled revenue turnover every year for the last three years and I’m sure the platform will continue to be at the heart of our operations as we grow. </div> </script> <noscript> <div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><span class="byline-author">Posted by Derek Gallimore, MD of Boutique London Lets</span><br /><br /><i><b>Editor's note:</b> Today’s guest blogger is Derek Gallimore, MD of <a href="http://www.boutiquelondonlets.com/" target="_blank">Boutique London Lets</a>, a provider of luxurious short-stay accommodation in London.

As testament to this, we’ve tripled revenue turnover every year for the last three years and I’m sure the platform will continue to be at the heart of our operations as we grow. </div> </noscript> </div> </div> <div class='share'> <span class='gplus-share social-wrapper' data-href='https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2013/05/boutique-london-lets-goes-global-with.html?hl=en'> <img alt='Share on Google+' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/branding/google_plus/2x/ic_w_post_gplus_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='twitter-custom social-wrapper' data-href='http://twitter.com/share?text=Official Google Cloud Blog:Boutique London Lets goes global with Google Apps&url=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2013/05/boutique-london-lets-goes-global-with.html?hl=en&via=gsuite'> <img alt='Share on Twitter' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_twitter_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='fb-custom social-wrapper' data-href='https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2013/05/boutique-london-lets-goes-global-with.html?hl=en'> <img alt='Share on Facebook' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_facebook_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> </div> <div class='comment-container'> <i class='comment-img material-icons'>  </i> <span class='cmt_count_iframe_holder' data-count='0' data-onclick='' data-post-url='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2013/05/boutique-london-lets-goes-global-with.html?hl=en' data-url='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2013/05/boutique-london-lets-goes-global-with.html' style='color: #4184F3;'></span> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='cmt_iframe_holder' data-href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2013/05/boutique-london-lets-goes-global-with.html' data-viewtype='FILTERED_POSTMOD'></div> <a href='https://plus.google.com/112374322230920073195' rel='author' style='display:none;'> Google </a> <div class='label-footer'> <span class='labels-caption'> Labels: </span> <span class='labels'> <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/customer%20love?hl=en' rel='tag'> customer love </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/Gone%20Google?hl=en' rel='tag'> Gone Google </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/Google%20Apps?hl=en' rel='tag'> Google Apps </a> </span> </div> </div> </div> <div class='post' data-id='3140968930146438101' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2013/05/google-apps-helps-custommade-operate-at.html?hl=en' itemprop='url' title='Google Apps helps CustomMade operate at the speed of small business'> Google Apps helps CustomMade operate at the speed of small business </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> Tuesday, May 21, 2013 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> <div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><span class="byline-author">Posted by Mike Salguero, CEO and Co-Founder of CustomMade</span><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtBJq1UwVHFn8XfuhS3FQG0MjDz0_iCuAI9m4th_k0moHTkYt20Nnz4Qh1B0Iep3XZECMP0Bi4X3tKyXP1fgM3k_BDmY0kEQKWUVMHcLOVbR6DHDRrTDJ3iJUJtLJJcAiW-AhMTZN5J7g/s1600/Mike+S+headshot.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtBJq1UwVHFn8XfuhS3FQG0MjDz0_iCuAI9m4th_k0moHTkYt20Nnz4Qh1B0Iep3XZECMP0Bi4X3tKyXP1fgM3k_BDmY0kEQKWUVMHcLOVbR6DHDRrTDJ3iJUJtLJJcAiW-AhMTZN5J7g/s200/Mike+S+headshot.jpg" width="200" /></a><i><b>Editor's note:</b> Today's guest blogger is Mike Salguero, CEO and Co-Founder of <a href="http://www.custommade.com/">CustomMade</a>, an online platform for buying custom goods from local Makers.

Founded in 1895, SulAmérica is the largest independent insurance company in Brazil with more than 5,000 employees and over 30,000 brokers throughout the country. See what other organizations that have gone Google <a href="//www.google.com/enterprise/apps/business/customers.html?utm_campaign=entblog&utm_source=Sul05202013&utm_medium=blog" target="_blank">have to say</a>.</i><br /><br />We've been in the insurance industry for more than 100 years and have continued to grow because we value high quality customer service, creating opportunities for our employees and preserving our company traditions. In today's fast-paced world, we realize that in order to continue to focus on our mission, and better serve our 6.7 million customers across Brazil, agility and innovation are key. With that in mind, we have decided to implement three of the solutions that Google Enterprise provides. <br /><br />Google Apps for Business was one of our biggest steps towards technology innovation. Before, I had three people dedicated solely to managing our email on LotusNotes, which required constant maintenance because of limited capacity. Google Apps offers over 100x more storage capacity, 3x better service level availability, and is the only solution in the market that is entirely cloud-based. Since adopting Google Apps with the help of Google Apps reseller <a href="http://www.ipnetsolucoes.com.br/" target="_blank">IpNet</a>, we smoothly moved 7,000 accounts in less than 6 months and reduced our infrastructure by over 60 percent. Our goal? To have no hardware, saving more than $3 million in technical and operating costs. <br /><br /><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/9-4edqo_4oI" width="560"></iframe><br /><br />The most noticeable shift that I encounter every day is how Google Apps makes collaboration easy company-wide. For example, we use Google Sites to manage mergers and acquisitions to ensure there is a historical record of the project, all of the documents are in one place, and the different teams that need help with the project (finance, legal, marketing, etc.) can all be on the same page. The end goal: no matter the division, team or location, our employees can access and edit the records in real-time. <br /><br />Communication has also improved tenfold because of universal access to features like a more collaborative inbox on Gmail, Google Talk and Google+ Hangouts. Specifically, we expanded our face-to-face communication while saving money and travel time. We used to only have access to video-conference equipment in 10 conference rooms, but now our employees can chat at all times of the day with Hangouts. They can work together from anywhere: from their phones, tablets and laptops, at their desks or on the go. Mobility is key and also allows our employees to have direct contact with customers without traveling thousands of miles. <br /><br />Watching the successful rollout and adoption of Google Apps motivated us to use more of Google's Enterprise products. Within a few months, we also adopted Google App Engine and integrated Google Maps. Using these tools, we built a medical reference network that uses the power of Google search so our customers can look for a doctor, hospital or laboratory. The result provides a list with names, specialities and addresses, and the accompanying map provides geolocalized results. We couldn’t do this before because it was slow, complicated and costly. With Google App Engine we were able to build this directory on the web just as easily as we did for mobile, so our customers can access the network anytime, anywhere through an intuitive, familiar interface. Now, we receive more than 500,000 searches per month, which is direct contact with our customers that we didn’t have before. We're impressed by the momentum and scalability. <br /><br />By implementing Google Enterprise solutions that save time, money and are extremely scalable, we can offer easy-to-use, innovative solutions to improve our core business. Our employees work better together and we provide new avenues for contact directly with our customers. At SulAmérica, we aren’t focused solely on selling insurance. We believe that by going Google we are able to focus on what's most important: making our customers' and employees’ lives easier and safer. </div> </script> <noscript> <div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><span class="byline-author">Posted by Cristiano Barbieri, CIO of SulAmérica Seguros</span><br /><br /><i><b>Editor's note:</b> Our guest blogger today is Cristiano Barbieri, CIO of SulAmérica Seguros.

The conference this year focused on a growing trend that affects our lives at home, at work and at school: the move towards a multi-screen world. In this world, tablets and mobile phones are quickly becoming as commonplace—and as useful—as desktop and laptop computers. <br /><br />As you shift between devices, your experience should be seamless. And the same tools you use in your personal life should be available in the workplace, so you can work the way you live. To that end, here are some highlights from this week that are particularly relevant to our business, government and education customers—including tools for developers, features to simplify your life, and new ways to connect and collaborate with others. <br /><br /><b>Tools for developers:</b><br /><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><b>Google Cloud Platform</b>: We <a href="http://googlecloudplatform.blogspot.com/2013/05/ushering-in-next-generation-of.html" target="_blank">announced</a> that <a href="https://cloud.google.com/products/compute-engine" target="_blank">Google Compute Engine</a>—which provides a fast, consistently high-performance environment for running virtual machines—is now available to anyone by visiting <a href="https://cloud.google.com/products/compute-engine">cloud.google.com</a>.

Later this year, Google will expand its education offering beyond Chromebooks and Apps to include Nexus tablets and Google Play for Education.

As Canada’s national broadcaster, we bring Canadians programming when, where and how they want it ― through a comprehensive range of radio, television, Internet, satellite-based services and mobile devices. Our team is stationed all over the world, which means real-time communication is key for up-to-date, consistent reporting.<br /><br />Achieving this at such a large scale isn't always easy. For more than 10 years, we had been using an on-premise, corporate-wide system for email/calendar. We also had a separate system for collaboration, but neither solution was integrated and drove true inter-office collaboration. <br /><br />With a company-wide goal to reduce infrastructure and a need for better messaging and collaboration, we decided to look at public cloud solutions, especially Google Apps. It was clear that Google Apps was the right solution for us based on cost, proven service level and availability guarantee and the breadth of tools the platform offered for collaboration. We also had great support from the media groups in our company (about 70% of our employees), as many of them had been using personal Google accounts to communicate already with external users. Once we decided to “go Google” we were able to complete a smooth 90-day deployment with the help of Google Apps reseller, <a href="http://www.onixnet.com/">Onix</a>, by March 1, 2013. <br /><br />Since we went live, adoption of the whole platform has well exceeded our expectations of email and calendaring. Google+ Hangouts has revolutionized the way that our employees interact with each other. Long conference calls are now becoming a thing of the past. We can now jump on a Hangout and have a face-to-face meeting with colleagues across the country via our smartphones, from home or the office, without getting on a plane. It’s cost-effective and more efficient without compromising our core business. <br /><br />Additionally, Google Docs are helping our reporters become better and more efficient storytellers. For example, before, our writers and reporters in our newsroom brainstormed and drafted copy in separate Word documents, which inevitably led to version confusion and unnecessary time spent merging documents. Now, they use a single, shared Google Doc for all their stories, so the entire team can collaborate together, in real time, regardless of where they’re working. Our freelancers use Docs to make quick edits and communicate on the fly since it's simpler for them to share content and edit in real-time. <br /><br />We are proud to bring the best tools to our company and see the cultural shift that is happening amongst our employees. We are moving away from managing IT and into improving our core business of content creation. We’re excited about what this means for the quality of our reporting and the happiness of our employees.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div></div><br /><b><i>Update [May 15]</b>: A slight edit was made to this post.</i> </script> <noscript> <div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><span class="byline-author">Posted by Jean-Martin Thibault, Senior Enterprise Architect at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation</span><br /><br /><i><b>Editor's note: </b>Our guest blogger this week is Jean-Martin Thibault, Senior Enterprise Architect at the <a href="http://www.cbc.ca/">Canadian Broadcasting Corporation</a>, Canada’s oldest broadcasting network and national broadcaster, known </i><i>commonly </i><i>as CBC and officially as <a href="http://www.radio-canada.ca/">CBC/Radio-Canada</a>.

As Canada’s national broadcaster, we bring Canadians programming when, where and how they want it ― through a comprehensive range of radio, television, Internet, satellite-based services and mobile devices. Our team is stationed all over the world, which means real-time communication is key for up-to-date, consistent reporting.<br /><br />Achieving this at such a large scale isn't always easy. For more than 10 years, we had been using an on-premise, corporate-wide system for email/calendar. We also had a separate system for collaboration, but neither solution was integrated and drove true inter-office collaboration. <br /><br />With a company-wide goal to reduce infrastructure and a need for better messaging and collaboration, we decided to look at public cloud solutions, especially Google Apps. It was clear that Google Apps was the right solution for us based on cost, proven service level and availability guarantee and the breadth of tools the platform offered for collaboration. We also had great support from the media groups in our company (about 70% of our employees), as many of them had been using personal Google accounts to communicate already with external users.

That’s what I get to do as VP of Operations at FIT4MOM, a franchise that offers fitness classes to help mothers stay healthy and in shape. We’re not your typical gym session; we run pre-natal classes for pregnant women, stroller classes for new moms with their little ones in tow and workouts for mothers of all stages to get their pre-baby bodies back. Since launching in San Diego in 2001, we’ve grown to 275 franchises and 1,300 locations nationwide, helping moms from California to Cleveland stay in shape, meet other mothers and have fun with their kids. <br /><br />We’re a mobile company. Our franchise owners are busy moms who don’t have time to sit in an office and answer emails. They’re teaching classes in the local park, picking up their kids from daycare and taking care of their families. Unfortunately, when we looked at our technology, we realized our email and collaboration system wasn’t doing our on-the-go business owners any favors. After looking at some underwhelming solutions tailored for franchise operations, we discovered Google Apps and knew we’d found the platform we needed to help us get our work done whenever and wherever we had the time. <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgRd6I2_LKMBavF9nPEhKUIptjB-qY_iagUL8wDQL-NKHRw5NSoc-X1dmgCor4k44WX3gn9Plrlu5siGh86zlDLRZEMKvIeWYBxUYofs6wdJCVTs71GoCgDanvCVllkQQpFFtvwpfGQJ1U/s1600/FB+Cover+Farel+teaching.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgRd6I2_LKMBavF9nPEhKUIptjB-qY_iagUL8wDQL-NKHRw5NSoc-X1dmgCor4k44WX3gn9Plrlu5siGh86zlDLRZEMKvIeWYBxUYofs6wdJCVTs71GoCgDanvCVllkQQpFFtvwpfGQJ1U/s320/FB+Cover+Farel+teaching.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>Our only remaining concern was whether moving from our old system to Google Apps would be difficult without a dedicated in-house IT lead. Our worries disappeared as soon as we spoke with <a href="http://www.lark-it.com/" target="_blank">Lark IT</a>, our Google Apps Reseller. Lark walked us through the process step-by-step, from the moment we decided to switch to Apps to the moment we successfully migrated all 300 of our business owners and corporate team members. <br /><br />Apps has been a game changer for our 11-person corporate team. We store all our essential documents in a single shared folder on Drive, so everyone on the team has on-demand access to HR-related forms, time-off requests and contact information for our franchisees and partners. We also have a shared Google Calendar that’s always up-to-date with training sessions for new franchise owners and opening dates for new FIT4MOM locations. That way, we know all our moms are always in the loop. Google+ Hangouts have become increasingly ingrained in our daily routine, both for recurring events, like our corporate staff meetings, and impromptu one-on-one check-ins with franchise owners. <br /><br />Our franchise owners are also over the moon about Apps because they finally have the tools to let them work efficiently and on their own schedules. With Gmail and Calendar on their phones, they have constant access to class schedules and can communicate easily with their instructors and the moms in their groups. No more time is wasted running home to check their laptops. <br /><br />FIT4MOM isn’t just about fitness - it’s about bringing together active moms who want to be both healthy and part of a like-minded community. Between our Fit4Baby, Stroller Strides and Body Back classes, our employees and customers are getting fit and creating long-lasting friendships.

My Receptionist provides virtual receptionists for small businesses who realize the importance of having someone on the front line but don’t have the resources to hire someone full-time. Our 65 employees across two offices provide phone answering services and front office support for our customers, so they can focus on what they do best: growing their business. <br /><br />In our line of work, a technology hangup is on par with a dropped call, and in 2011, we realized it was time for an upgrade. We had a jumble of Microsoft products that didn’t work well together and made our day-to-day operations difficult. We needed a new platform that required fewer IT resources and helped our employees and clients communicate, collaborate and schedule better together. We experimented with Microsoft Office 365, but the pricing felt unnecessarily complicated and it relied too heavily on additional software to be the fully baked cloud solution we wanted. When we tried Google Apps, we immediately knew it was the right fit: not only was it cost-effective and easy to understand, but we could tell that Google had a more developed product and vision. <br /><br />While the ease and popularity of Gmail was a key driver in our switch to Google Apps, Google Docs and Drive have completely changed the way we collaborate internally and with our clients. Before, we put our training material in plastic binders, which would then be sent out to 70 people, including clients. Every time we needed to make a change - even to one page - we would need to reprint 70 copies of each page and send new binders out. You couldn't help but sigh heavily when you had to update a piece of information or update a process, because it meant another trip to the printer. Now, with Google Docs, the process, printing and need for mailing disappeared entirely. We just go online, make the change in our doc, and rest assured that everyone has the same up-to-date training manual for immediate access. <br /><br />Google+ Hangouts have also become a mainstay of our day. Every morning our executive team, which is split between our two offices, huddles on a Hangout. If someone is travelling, they’re patched in and don’t miss a thing.

My Receptionist provides virtual receptionists for small businesses who realize the importance of having someone on the front line but don’t have the resources to hire someone full-time. Our 65 employees across two offices provide phone answering services and front office support for our customers, so they can focus on what they do best: growing their business. <br /><br />In our line of work, a technology hangup is on par with a dropped call, and in 2011, we realized it was time for an upgrade. We had a jumble of Microsoft products that didn’t work well together and made our day-to-day operations difficult. We needed a new platform that required fewer IT resources and helped our employees and clients communicate, collaborate and schedule better together. We experimented with Microsoft Office 365, but the pricing felt unnecessarily complicated and it relied too heavily on additional software to be the fully baked cloud solution we wanted. When we tried Google Apps, we immediately knew it was the right fit: not only was it cost-effective and easy to understand, but we could tell that Google had a more developed product and vision. <br /><br />While the ease and popularity of Gmail was a key driver in our switch to Google Apps, Google Docs and Drive have completely changed the way we collaborate internally and with our clients. Before, we put our training material in plastic binders, which would then be sent out to 70 people, including clients. Every time we needed to make a change - even to one page - we would need to reprint 70 copies of each page and send new binders out. You couldn't help but sigh heavily when you had to update a piece of information or update a process, because it meant another trip to the printer. Now, with Google Docs, the process, printing and need for mailing disappeared entirely. We just go online, make the change in our doc, and rest assured that everyone has the same up-to-date training manual for immediate access. <br /><br />Google+ Hangouts have also become a mainstay of our day. Every morning our executive team, which is split between our two offices, huddles on a Hangout. If someone is travelling, they’re patched in and don’t miss a thing. Hangouts are also tightly integrated with Google Calendar, so our meetings are just one click away. <br /><br />Our virtual receptionists are the first line of contact between a lot of small businesses and their customers, so it’s essential that we give our employees the resources to stay up to date and be knowledgeable about our clients. Our receptionists may not give out candy or cold water to the folks they interact with, but with the help of Google Apps, they have the tools to make our clients - and their customers - happy. </div> </noscript> </div> </div> <div class='share'> <span class='gplus-share social-wrapper' data-href='https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2013/05/google-apps-helps-my-receptionist-greet.html?hl=en'> <img alt='Share on Google+' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/branding/google_plus/2x/ic_w_post_gplus_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='twitter-custom social-wrapper' data-href='http://twitter.com/share?text=Official Google Cloud Blog:Google Apps helps My Receptionist greet customers with a virtual smile&url=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2013/05/google-apps-helps-my-receptionist-greet.html?hl=en&via=gsuite'> <img alt='Share on Twitter' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_twitter_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='fb-custom social-wrapper' data-href='https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2013/05/google-apps-helps-my-receptionist-greet.html?hl=en'> <img alt='Share on Facebook' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_facebook_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> </div> <div class='comment-container'> <i class='comment-img material-icons'>  </i> <span class='cmt_count_iframe_holder' data-count='0' data-onclick='' data-post-url='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2013/05/google-apps-helps-my-receptionist-greet.html?hl=en' data-url='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2013/05/google-apps-helps-my-receptionist-greet.html' style='color: #4184F3;'></span> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='cmt_iframe_holder' data-href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2013/05/google-apps-helps-my-receptionist-greet.html' data-viewtype='FILTERED_POSTMOD'></div> <a href='https://plus.google.com/112374322230920073195' rel='author' style='display:none;'> Google </a> <div class='label-footer'> <span class='labels-caption'> Labels: </span> <span class='labels'> <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/customer%20love?hl=en' rel='tag'> customer love </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/Gone%20Google?hl=en' rel='tag'> Gone Google </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/Receptionist%27s%20Day?hl=en' rel='tag'> Receptionist's Day </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/SMB?hl=en' rel='tag'> SMB </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/success%20story?hl=en' rel='tag'> success story </a> </span> </div> </div> </div> <div class='post' data-id='5448734185213870299' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2013/05/new-google-admin-console.html?hl=en' itemprop='url' title='New Google Admin console'> New Google Admin console </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> Wednesday, May 8, 2013 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> <div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><span class="byline-author">Posted by Muzammil Esmail, Product Manager, Google Apps</span><br /><br />Every day, millions of businesses, schools and government agencies rely on Google Apps to get their work done.
