Why businesses use Google Docs to collaborate on files more smoothly


  1. Protect your company's documents – Administrators have fine-grained controls to manage how broadly employees can share corporate documents.
  2. Work together without the hassles of attachments – Coworkers can share the same online copy of each doc, spreadsheet or presentation. All revisions are saved and recoverable.

  3. Present and publish through the web – Presentations can be delivered to remote audiences, and documents and spreadsheets can be published internally for employees to view.
  4. Interoperate with traditional file formats – Import and collaboratively edit or publish from .doc, .xls, .csv, .ppt, .txt, .html, .pdf and other formats. You can export as well.

Why businesses use Google Video for secure, private video sharing

 

  1. Share rich video information – Video sharing makes important communications like internal trainings and corporate announcements more personal, engaging and effective.
  2. Keep videos secure and private – Employees can securely share videos with select coworkers or everyone at the company without making confidential information public.
  3. No large files or complex infrastructure – Google securely hosts and streams your videos, so employees don't need to share videos over email, or burden IT for a video solution.
  4. Everyone at your company can contribute – Employees can share videos instantly. Viewing and annotating doesn't require any special software, just a standard browser.

  1. Keep company information secure – Set consistent sharing permissions across all company sites.
