But there’s a <a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2012/07/new-future-hitting-refresh-on-business.html">fundamental shift</a> underway: in the last few years, consumer technology has begun to outpace business technology. People have fallen in love with the simplicity and freedom of living in the cloud with the help of modern browsers and smartphones—and they want to bring that experience to the workplace. <br><br>This is where Google comes in. For the better part of the past decade, we’ve worked to extend our popular consumer products—everything from Gmail and Google Drive to Maps, Google+ and Search—to meet your business needs. It should be easy for you to work better together, from anywhere, with secure (and simple!) tools. Here’s a look back at some key highlights from 2012. <br><br><b>Work securely...</b><br>Keeping your information secure is one of our top priorities. To that end, domain administrators can now <a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2012/06/posted-by-rishi-dhand-product-manager.html"><i>require</i> their employees</a> to use <a href="https://support.google.com/accounts/bin/answer.py?hl=en&topic=1056283&answer=180744&rd=1">2-step verification</a>, an additional layer of security that reduces the chance of unauthorized account access. Your company can also use <a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2012/03/google-apps-vault-brings-information.html">Google Apps Vault</a>, a solution for managing and archiving critical information for legal and regulatory reasons. If your business operates outside the U.S., we now offer <a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2012/06/google-apps-to-offer-additional.html">Model Contract Clauses</a> as an additional way to comply with the European Commission’s Data Protection Directive. Finally, Google Apps received <a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2012/05/google-apps-receives-iso-27001.html">ISO 27001 certification</a>, ensuring our systems meet one of the most widely, internationally accepted independent security standards. <br><br><b>… anytime, anywhere...</b><br>It should be easy to get work done – anytime, on any device, with anyone. With <a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2012/06/get-things-done-anytime-anywhere.html">offline editing</a> in Chrome, you can now create and edit Google documents and leave comments even when you don’t have an Internet connection. Any changes you make will be automatically synced when you get back online. When you’re travelling, you can also edit Google <a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2012/09/google-drive-updates-for-ios-and-android.html">documents</a> and <a href="http://googledrive.blogspot.com/2012/11/edit-spreadsheets-on-go-with-drive.html">spreadsheets</a> using the Drive app on your <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/app/google-drive/id507874739?mt=8">iPhone, iPad</a> or <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.docs">Android</a> device. Just like on your computer, you’ll be able to see other people’s edits instantly as they’re made. <br><br>If your business has workers on the go, <a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2012/06/introducing-google-maps-coordinate.html">Google Maps Coordinate</a> combines the power of Google’s mapping technologies with modern smartphones to help you improve communication with employees in the field. In addition, the <a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2012/12/a-new-way-to-distribute-your-internal.html">Google Play Private Channel</a> lets you distribute internal apps to your employees who use Android devices. The new <a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2012/10/the-new-chromebook-for-everyone.html">Chromebooks</a> and <a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2012/05/next-step-in-chrome-os-journey-for.html">Chromeboxes</a> we launched with our partners are secure and easy to manage, which makes them especially great devices for <a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2012/01/bringing-chromebooks-to-every-classroom.html">1-to-1 programs</a> in schools, additional laptops <a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2012/11/quality-distribution-inc-saves-money.html">for office workers</a>, or desktop units for multiple users <a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2012/08/kaplan-tests-high-with-google-apps-for.html">in a call center</a>. (And we’re honored that Inc.

We introduced <a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2012/04/introducing-google-drive-newest-member.html">Google Drive</a> as a single place for you to create, share, collaborate and keep all your work. You can now <a href="http://gmailblog.blogspot.com/2012/11/gmail-and-drive-new-way-to-send-files.html">insert files</a> (up to 10GB) from Drive directly into an email without leaving your Gmail inbox, and you can <a href="https://plus.google.com/+googleenterprise/posts/ieLoEcUzeAB">share work</a> from Drive on Google+. <a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2012/11/larger-hangouts-in-google-for.html">You and up to 14 colleagues</a> can join a Google+ hangout directly from a <a href="http://support.google.com/calendar/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2690797">calendar entry</a> or your <a href="http://gmailblog.blogspot.com/2012/07/video-chat-face-to-face-to-face-with.html">email inbox</a>. Once inside a hangout, you can <a href="https://support.google.com/plus/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2485245">open a Google Doc</a> for everyone to see and work on simultaneously. And if your company uses Chrome along with Google Apps, you can now <a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2012/10/enhanced-chrome-browser-support-for.html">call or email us</a> for help with Chrome. <br><br>With the <a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2012/10/introducing-google-search-appliance.html">Google Search Appliance 7.0</a>, you can search for a document on your company’s intranet just as easily as you’d search for a holiday recipe on Google.com. And if your business relies on geographic data—say, to map gas pipelines or help customers locate your store—you can use Google Maps and Earth Enterprise to <a href="http://www.morethanamap.com/">visualize your data</a> on the Google Maps interface you’re already familiar with. <br><br><iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/Rgs3OUDDxtw" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br><br><b>...supported by partners and Google infrastructure</b><br>Whether it’s Apps for Business, Maps Coordinate, or just a Google search, most Google services you use are possible only because of the powerful and <a href="//www.google.com/green">energy-efficient</a> infrastructure we’ve built over the years. This year, we worked to bring you more direct access to this infrastructure to help run your businesses and applications in the cloud. <a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2012/06/google-compute-engine-computing-without.html">Compute Engine</a> lets your business run virtual machines in Google’s data centers and <a href="http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2012/05/google-bigquery-brings-big-data.html">BigQuery</a> helps you quickly analyze big sets of data to gain business insights.

Unable to complete high school, he worked as a night shift security guard earning $500/month to support his family. During the rush hour commute from his home in Khayelitsha, Vuyile realized that he could earn extra income by selling prepaid mobile airtime vouchers to other commuters on the train. <br><br>In rural areas, it’s common to use prepaid vouchers to pay for basic services such as electricity, insurance and airtime for mobile phones. But it’s often difficult to distribute physical vouchers because of the risk of theft and fraud. <br><br><a href="http://www.nomanini.com/">Nomanini</a>, a startup based in South Africa, built a device that enables local entrepreneurs like Vuyile to sell prepaid mobile services in their communities.

It generates and prints codes which people purchase to add minutes to their mobile phones. <br><br>Today, Vuyile sells vouchers on the train for cash payment, and earns a commission weekly.

To make sure that our travelers reach their destinations safely and on time, a major part of our strategy is the digital Global System of Mobile Communication-Rail platform (GSM-R).

For example, Google Earth Enterprise draws specific parameters from our existing database, generates geographical 3-D objects dynamically, and visualizes them on the Google Earth Globe. Google Earth Enterprise also simplifies our interdepartmental cooperation and our reporting to supervisory authorities. As it is intuitive to use, it provides us with valuable support in the areas of network operation and optimization, rollouts and general network upgrades. <br><br>Using Google Earth, our team can literally fly over the GSM-R infrastructure as if we’re in a plane. Thanks to this, I have the ability to observe each GSM-R location’s masts and antenna systems from every perspective.

During my 15 years at Shaw, I've watched the organization grow, but our collaboration capabilities began to lag behind the needs of our global manufacturing company. We found challenges in scalability and stability in our previous email solution. Support resources were also an issue, as we required a team of three full-time employees just to keep our email up-and-running. <p>In 2012, we made the move to Google Apps for Business, after proving in pilot programs that it would provide the integrated tools to help our dispersed global teams work together more effectively, would meet the requirements of uptime and ease of provisioning our IT team wanted, and accommodate the security requirements we were looking for. <p>Prior to moving the entire company to Google Apps, we used Microsoft® Office, which did not meet the collaboration needs of a global manufacturer. We’d end up with 15 different versions of a document attached to who knows how many different emails. As an example, the marketing team wanted a way to easily share files and work together on copy for our website and ads with our agencies. With Google Drive and Google Docs, multiple team members could work on content, and you could actually see it evolve in a very short period of time from a concept to a script for a TV commercial, all in the same shared document. <p>True collaboration and access from anywhere was something our employees were demanding with more frequency. We knew we needed to extract ourselves from our current email environment. When I did a cost and benefit analysis, it was clear we needed to move to the cloud. We discovered that Microsoft Office 365 would cost about 13 times more for us than Google Apps. In March, with the help of our Google Apps Reseller, <a href="http://www.cloudsherpas.com/">Cloud Sherpas</a>, we implemented Google Apps for more than 10,000 of our associates who use email. <p>It turns out that collaboration doesn’t just benefit the marketing department. We have an elaborate budget process inside IT that we were able to move to Google Sheets. Now our master spreadsheet can be instantly updated in real time, shaving about two months, or 50 percent of time spent, off the budgeting process. We’ve also started to use Hangouts for a lot of our meetings. In fact, we’ve started holding our staff meetings via hangout, even though the team is only 20 minutes apart. Hangouts have allowed us to be more focused, trimming the hour long meeting to 30 minutes. <p>One responsibility in my job is to find ways to help our teams be more productive. That can be challenging in a manufacturing company where the majority of users aren’t necessarily tech savvy, but with Google Apps that doesn’t matter because the products are intuitive. They are now able to do things themselves, and we have wanted to allow them to be self-sufficient for a long time. After just a few months of using Google Apps, I’m inspired by the way our teams are working together and finding faster, easier ways to work. </script> <noscript> <span class="byline-author">Posted by Jim Nielsen, Manager of Enterprise Technology Architecture and Planning for Shaw Industries</span><br><br> <i><b>Editors note:</b> Our guest blogger this week is Jim Nielsen, Manager of Enterprise Technology Architecture and Planning for Shaw Industries, a 25,000 employee company headquartered in northwest Georgia.
