Box allows you to have total control over the activities of your users and is unbelievably easy to upload files on. What’s more, it can be used from any location and can be conveniently synced with multiple machines.

G Suite

Formerly called Google Apps for Work, G-Suite is Google Apps’ (Sheets, Docs, etc.) professional counterpart. Aiming to give you the entire Google apps experience, the app, with its enhanced features and tighter security settings, tends to fully take on the Microsoft Office Suite. As expected, G-Suite has endless options to collaborate with other Google apps (such as Google Sheets. Google Apps and Google Drive) and uses Google Hangouts as its messaging platform. The best thing about G-Suite is that it has an interface and technology that is very similar to other Google products, which makes it easier for employees to train (given the fact that most people are familiar with the interface of other Google apps).

Price: G-Suite is priced at a starting rate of $5 per user per month.

MindMeister

Ideal for: Those who struggle to bring their ideas to reality

An ideal app for creative, but scattered minds, MindMeister helps its users track their ideas in a tangible fashion to allow them to understand their value (or lack thereof) and act accordingly. The app’s core concept is it’s “mind map” – a specialized journal of sorts that lets users put down their otherwise scattered ideas within a comprehensive framework, and then build upon that. Starting a mind map is simple – all one needs to do is double-click anywhere on the canvas to start with a fresh idea, and then proceed to list everything they possibly can. They can then either build upon it themselves or invite their team to share and brainstorm.

HelloSign

Ideal for: Using valid signatures in the digital world

In today’s day and age, having a digital equivalent of one’s signature – one that is valid and legal – is a must. HelloSign allows users to sign documents – digitally, eliminating the immediate and almost-compulsory need to have to find a way to make hard copies whenever the need arises. All one needs to do is draw their signature on the mobile app and click on the signature field to add said signature. Users can also enter in their name, and have the app generate a unique signature.

That’s not where the benefits of the app stops, however. The app has several additional features that make it ideal, such as the ability to make and save template documents (as opposed to making Word documents and importing them), the ability to work with other mobile and web apps via integration, and companion apps, like the HelloFax app, which lets users “fax” documents digitally as well.

Price: FREE (for 3 signed documents every month); $15 onwards per month (starting Pro plan for unlimited documents)

Grammarly

Ideal for: Anyone who values having impeccable grammar

No matter how big a grammar wiz one might be, there is always room for mistakes, especially when people tend to be focused on several tasks all at once. With Grammarly, users can take it easy, knowing that the app automatically finds and highlights all kinds of Grammar and continuity errors – even those that are rare and therefore go undetected by human beings. The app is universal as well – allowing you to easily sync it through your devices via Plug-ins and Add-ons using a universal Grammarly account. In addition to this, it can easily sync with other apps on your mobile as well.

While the app isn’t a cure all – it may not be able to understand industry-centric terms, it is a great tool to help tighten up the quality of the written word for any and all of your communications – sometimes that itself goes a long way.

Price: FREE (Basic); $29.99/month onwards (Premium)
