These are the basic tools every digital agency should have. It would almost be impossible for digital agencies to work without these tools. In addition to these tools, every agency needs tools for maintaining financial accounts. They need these tools to raise invoices and bills on their clients. We shall discuss them at the appropriate time. However, let us look at the five basic tools.<\/span><\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” text_align=”center”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1\/1″ column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_custom_heading text=”1.

Automation requires the use of various tools. One of the most important ingredients of any business is data. The data can be anything ranging from inventory, customer demographics, orders, financial data, taxation, and so on. The list can go on and on. Storing this data for future assimilation and analysis is very important. One of the best tools available on the internet for storage of data has to be Google Drive<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1519377438996{margin-top: 10px !important;margin-bottom: 10px !important;}”]\n

The advantages of using Google Drive are many. The principal benefits are ease of access to the users, security, and simple file synchronization options. As Google Drive uses the cloud-based method of storing files, you can access it from anywhere and from any device. The best part of it all is that your staff members will also be able to access the files saved on various machines using Google Drive File Stream.<\/span><\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1519377455507{margin-top: 10px !important;margin-bottom: 10px !important;}”]\n

Google Docs collaborates perfectly with Google Drive. You can also synchronize your MS Word files with Google Drive. This makes it perfectly fit for agency working. The beauty of working with Google Drive and Google Docs is that you can make the changes anywhere. The previous versions get updated immediately. Hence, anyone can view the documents even from their smartphones. This facility of internal sharing and storing of documents is what makes Google Drive endearing to all digital agencies. <\/span><\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text]

Now let us come to the security aspect. You have two options available with you. One is the 2-Step verification<\/a>. This security measure envisages the sending of a code to your phone. You have to enter this code to gain access to Google drive. The other security measure is Advanced Protection<\/a> that necessitates the use of physical security keys. In case your file gets deleted accidentally, you have the facility to restore the earlier versions. This makes it a comprehensive file storage tool. It is imperative that every digital agency use this tool for managing projects. <\/span><\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” text_align=”center”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1\/1″ column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_custom_heading text=”2.
