This month we bring you the latest and greatest from the world of business apps. If it’s taking notes or working collaboratively from all corners of the globe, we have something for you.
OmniFocus
OmniFocus helps people analyse their work and get it done efficiently using what they call “perspectives”. Each perspectives are designed for a different function and brings the the most relevant information to the forefront by focusing on the folders and projects the user’s need at most at that time. Track tasks by date, person, places or project type to get them done efficiently.
Evernote

Evernote offers a single workspace that can be accessed from anywhere a user has connectivity which is great for remote workers that want to have impact back at the office.
LogMeIn
Sometimes working remote just isn’t the same as being at your office desk with your own PC. LogMeIn allows users to take control of their PC from anywhere they have a connection. Not only can you use your PC as if you are in the office the app comes with file management features which means you can download files from the desktop. It also allows you transfer files and remote print so you can keep up with your work flow from anywhere.
Google Drive
As a recent convert to Google I can’t speak highly enough of this service. You can access your files from any computer or smartphone and never have to worry about pressing the save button again! This app allows you to collaborate with colleagues on documents and you can invite individuals to comment on any files stored here. Google offer 15Gb of free storage which can be upgraded for those heavy users for a small fee.
