Consider your message to us delivered: today we’re introducing read receipts as an optional feature for Google Apps for Business and Google Apps for Government accounts.<br /><br />Read receipts allow senders to monitor the status of the messages they send and allow recipients to acknowledge receipt of mail. Let’s say John works in sourcing for his company and wants to make sure that his suppliers receive his purchase orders. As he sends each one out, John can request a receipt and later check that the recipients have received the orders.

Not only is viewing files in your browser far more secure than downloading and opening them locally, but it also saves time and doesn’t clutter up your hard-drive with unwanted files.

First, we’ve added presence highlights around shapes so you can keep track of which object each person is editing. Second, we added revision history which lets you see who made which change as well as go back to previous versions. Third, the new format painter lets you choose a source shape, press the format painter icon to copy its formatting, and then click on another shape to apply that formatting to the destination shape.<br /></li></ul><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="//4.bp.blogspot.com/-9tP0XuCgvcw/TZS84UpZOKI/AAAAAAAAAPo/hU8pbBTPjQM/s1600/drawings1+%25281%2529.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="//4.bp.blogspot.com/-9tP0XuCgvcw/TZS84UpZOKI/AAAAAAAAAPo/hU8pbBTPjQM/drawings1+%25281%2529.png" width="400"></a></div><ul><li><b><a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2011/02/teach-your-old-docs-new-tricks-with.html">Google Cloud Connect for Microsoft Office</a>:</b> Google Cloud Connect is now available in <a href="http://docs.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1110331&topic=30338">39 languages</a>.

You’ve already heard about <a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2011/03/great-documents-come-from-great.html">Discussions in Google Docs</a>, which introduced a better way to provide document feedback. Here are some of the other features that have been released in Google Docs over the past couple months:<br /><ul><li><b><a href="http://googledocs.blogspot.com/2011/03/filter-your-data-in-spreadsheets.html">Filter your data in spreadsheets</a>:</b> We made it easier to analyze and view your data with the addition of filtering in Google spreadsheets. Applying a filter to a set of data can help you quickly narrow down the data set to find the data you need. By selecting a data set, you can filter and sort amongst many rows at once.<br /></li></ul><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="//4.bp.blogspot.com/-50wghOL1m6Y/TZS85UaRKGI/AAAAAAAAAP0/fK1Bc4OY7lI/s1600/filter4+%25281%2529.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="//4.bp.blogspot.com/-50wghOL1m6Y/TZS85UaRKGI/AAAAAAAAAP0/fK1Bc4OY7lI/filter4+%25281%2529.png"></a></div><ul><li><b><a href="http://googledocs.blogspot.com/2011/02/12-new-file-formats-in-google-docs.html">12 new file formats in the Google Docs Viewer</a>:</b> The Google Docs Viewer is used by millions of people every day to quickly view PDFs, Microsoft Word documents and PowerPoint presentations online. Not only is viewing files in your browser far more secure than downloading and opening them locally, but it also saves time and doesn’t clutter up your hard-drive with unwanted files. We recently added support for:<br /><br /><ul><li>Microsoft Excel (.XLS and .XLSX)<br /></li><li>Microsoft PowerPoint 2007 / 2010 (.PPTX)<br /></li><li>Apple Pages (.PAGES)<br /></li><li>Adobe Illustrator (.AI)<br /></li><li>Adobe Photoshop (.PSD)<br /></li><li>Autodesk AutoCad (.DXF)<br /></li><li>Scalable Vector Graphics (.SVG)<br /></li><li>PostScript (.EPS, .PS)<br /></li><li>TrueType (.TTF)<br /></li><li>XML Paper Specification (.XPS)</li></ul></li></ul><ul><li><b><a href="http://googledocs.blogspot.com/2011/03/whats-new-in-docs-mobile-editing-in-45.html">Mobile editing in 45 languages</a>:</b> Last year, we launched <a href="http://googledocs.blogspot.com/2010/11/editing-your-google-docs-on-go.html">mobile editing in English</a> in Google documents.

In charts, you can now add extra ranges by clicking on “<b>Select ranges...</b>” and “<b>add another range.</b>” You can also manually add new ranges separated by commas.

Features like fast email search, integrated IM, message threading, great spam filtering, collaborative sites and real-time, multi-person collaboration in documents, spreadsheets and presentations all contribute to the productivity improvements quantified by Forrester.<br /><br /><li><b>Break-even under 7 months</b><br />The break-even payback period of switching to Google Apps is very short – faster than seven months. After the investment quickly pays for itself, the productivity gains from Google Apps continue to grow year after year.<br /><br /><li><b>NPV over $10,000,000</b><br />The risk-adjusted Net Present Value (NPV) of switching to Google Apps is over $10,000,000 for the typical large business. Productivity gains contribute over $7,000,000 to this amount.</ul>Of course, both Google and Forrester strongly advise readers to conduct their own impact analysis when evaluating Google Apps, but this research solidifies what the Google Apps team has been hearing loud and clear from customers about the business benefits they’ve experienced.

After the investment quickly pays for itself, the productivity gains from Google Apps continue to grow year after year.<br /><br /><li><b>NPV over $10,000,000</b><br />The risk-adjusted Net Present Value (NPV) of switching to Google Apps is over $10,000,000 for the typical large business. Productivity gains contribute over $7,000,000 to this amount.</ul>Of course, both Google and Forrester strongly advise readers to conduct their own impact analysis when evaluating Google Apps, but this research solidifies what the Google Apps team has been hearing loud and clear from customers about the business benefits they’ve experienced.

Docs has become the centerpiece of our daily communications regarding project status, and we’re actively using Google Sites to help manage our business, including a company-wide start page with integrated calendar and <a href="http://twitter.com/Goble_Assoc">Twitter feed</a>:</div><div><br /></div><div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="//4.bp.blogspot.com/_jSdgG4-DeNE/TBELJ9LpN7I/AAAAAAAAAeM/_1Dru2DTh_4/s1600/GA_Start.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5481174487156733874" src="//4.bp.blogspot.com/_jSdgG4-DeNE/TBELJ9LpN7I/AAAAAAAAAeM/_1Dru2DTh_4/s400/GA_Start.jpg" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 260px; "></a></div><div><br /></div><div>We’ve also found ways to utilize Sites to assist in our continued focus to be the best partner to our clients. We recently developed a Site to provide a potential client insight into our immersion and research process, which was instrumental in helping us prepare to win this business. Going Google has also reinvigorated our client-centric focus, as our IT team now has the resource to assist our development team in building new client solutions.</div><div><br /></div><div>Using cloud-based solution like Google Apps has greatly enhanced our business operations; so much so that we’ve extended our cloud computing initiative to include <a href="//www.google.com/enterprise/marketplace">Google Apps Marketplace</a> providers such as <a href="//www.google.com/enterprise/marketplace/viewListing?productListingId=3492+14195420367568577649">TripIt</a>.

Jim Murphy, Research Director for Knowledge Management at <span class="misspell" suggestions="ARM,AME,AMER,AMUR,AMT">AMR</span> Research, is looking at effective search as the missing element of a content management solution. While many content management systems have a built-in search feature, the capability and relevance of this functionality is typically not up to par. Murphy has been talking to many enterprises who are increasingly looking to separate enterprise search solutions to provide high quality search across not only their <span class="misspell" suggestions="CM,EC,EM,UCM,ECO">ECM</span> system, but across other major repositories in their companies as well.</span></div><div style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /></span></div><div style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:100%;">One such enterprise Murphy has spoken to is <a id="ys0q" href="http://www.mercer.com/" title="Mercer">Mercer</a>.

This problem was concerning to them since the company's prime asset is the partners' financial knowledge – unlocking its potential would pay dividends to TechCFO. TechCFO's solution at the time was to upload documents to the public folders in their hosted Exchange server – but it was really difficult to search for information. The partners needed something that was simpler to search, simpler to access and provided better performance. Google Sites provided us with the tool to address their needs.
