G Suite: Advantages for organisations
1: Improved collaboration and teamwork
With G Suite apps like Sites and Drive, teams of all sizes can collaborate effectively as they create resources and materials with full agility and convenience. They can edit documents in real time, create useful resources for future reference and brainstorm creative ideas. Even if someone misses something, they can always come back to G Suite and bring themselves up to speed.
2: Better communication without ambiguity or iterations
G Suite apps like Hangouts and Gmail simplify communications across levels, locations and even borders. Workmates can connect with each other, and share knowledge, personal work experiences and training materials in ways they couldn’t before. Leadership can share relevant information with the workforce so no one feels left out, ignored or unheard. Ideas will not get lost. Meetings can be planned faster and made more productive.
3: Streamlined recruiting
G Suite provides apps that simplify the recruiting and onboarding process for HR professionals. Interviews can be scheduled and carried out irrespective of participants’ locations. New hires can access online training materials on Google Drive or Sites to prepare for their responsibilities. Through tools like Sheets, HR can keep track of employees’ performance and devise improvement and/or reward strategies.
4: Effective project and resource management
Apps like Docs, Sheets, Drive and Slides provide easy-to-use ways to create, update, track and distribute project-related materials. Calendar can be used to create a shared schedule showing deadlines, upcoming projects, training sessions, etc to all team members, while Sites can be used to create a comprehensive resource for assets that members can see and access. With G Suite, organisations can save on maintenance costs and significantly reduce the time wasted on manual, administrative tasks.
5: Improve employee experience
Employee surveys are a great way to gauge the current mood in the company. This information can then be used to design and implement employee engagement strategies that can improve their experiences and their relationship with the company. Google Forms provide an excellent survey resource to collect this kind of data easily quickly and with minimal hassle. Hangouts can be used for employee training, and to enhance their learning and development outcomes. This can improve their motivation to stay on with the company, which can reduce turnover rates.
These are only some of the many advantages offered by G Suite. With more than 17 powerful yet user-friendly applications, G Suite is the ideal partner for a high-performance digital workplace!
