   A good beginners tool to start your digital transformation.

   One of our customers said: Our small mining operation needed to go from paper based process to digital forms. At first, Google forms allowed us to use this Web-based platform that lets individuals and businesses of all sizes build customizable forms to conduct surveys and generate real-time response charts.

   We saw that a small sample of our field workers quickly adopted the new way of working.

   Step 1: accomplished.

   Now unto step 2.

   How do we deploy this unto our whole team? We needed email notifications, offline response collection when without wifi on the field. Our CIO and his director of operations needed deep data and trends analysis as well. Our inspectors, when doing their audits, needed to capture approx. 25 high definition pictures, some audio notes and a video which wasn't really possible with google forms.

   So, we can 100% credit the use of google forms to our transition towards a paperless process, but as we navigated saashub.com a little more, we were able to discover a world of alternatives. We strongly suggest to start using google forms before undergoing a big implementation plan towards such enterprise level inspection tools like nspek or even cheaper solutions like prontoforms.

   I am not sure if we would start with google's solution first if we would to do this digital transformation all over, but it did allow us to discover it's limits pretty quickly.

   At some point, we needed custom fields and functions, and none of us was able to code, so the nSpek training that comes with the application definitely sets it's self apart, giving us full autonomy.

   Intuitive Productivity tool

   The $100 USD is definitely hard to justify for most SaaS tools these days. But I gotta say Shift is one of the programs worthy of its price tag.

   Our small team of 3 use Shift as a consolidating tool for all our email and app accounts. Keeps everything in one place without the need to login on all these different tabs on Chrome.

   Can't really speak for the free version and the email only version, but the $99 tier subscription with the apps looks like to be the best bang for your buck.

   🏁 Competitors: Wavebox

• How do you guys have access the office portal for multiple MSP tenants at the same time?

  GDAP, but for those helpdesk staff who we need to give segmented access (I.e. Certain staff who can’t access certain customers) we use Shift (https://tryshift.com/) Shift also has the added benefit of allowing Google Workspace admin from the same console, also access to our PSA, RMM, IT Glue etc. It’s just a tricked-up Chrome browser under the hood, but super slick in practice.

  Is there any app that allow me to log in multiple facebook accounts in one app? I have multiple accounts and switching between them is tiring. I remember when Yahoo was still popular, there were some apps that did the thing. I find an app that on the website tryshift.com, have people here used it yet? Please give me some advice.

• Looking for a "daily email digest" tool.

  That being said, why not use a tool like shift https://tryshift.com ? It allows you to access email and slack in one application interface. Source: over 1 year ago
