8 Must Have Business Applications for the Android

In today’s technological advanced world, if you own a smart phone, an Android, or even an iPhone, you’re going to want to take advantage of all the applications that are out there. If you own a business, there are so many cool applications that I use on a daily basis that not only help me with time management, but also help me save money as well!

Listed below are some great applications that you can consider, if you don’t already have them. You will find that many of them are going to be a great asset to you, and your business.

• Documents to Go – I absolutely love this application, and while it costs around $30+, it’s a great application that allows you to edit, as well as view any Microsoft Office application such as Word, PowerPoint and more.
• ActionComplete – For those that are busy, and have lots of things to do, you’re going to need a task manager. This simple, free task manager allows you to upload tasks, as well as check them off as you complete them. It’s very easy to use.
• GDocs – If you’re a fan of Google documents, and you tend to use them a lot, you will find that this free application is a great way to create, as well as upload your documents straight through your phone. This is great if you want to take your documents on the go.
• Cashbook – I love cashbook, as it is a great expense manager. You can input any expense into your phone as you spend money. You will find that it is a great way to budget your money, as well as keep track of expenses, and more.
• VNC Viewer – If you want to reach your desktop remotely, this is an awesome application. With VNC, you can connect to any desktop with the VNC software on it. Once connected, your Android will act just like your desktop.
• Locale – This is a unique application that is great for those that want to turn phones off during a certain time period. Let’s say that you have meetings every day around 1pm – 3pm. With Locale, you can tell it to not ring during that time period, and it will forward all calls to your voicemail.
• Intuit GoPayment – This application created by the popular company, Intuit allows you to accept credit card payments on the go. This is great for those that want to have businesses that are mobile. There are transaction fees that are associated with it, but may be well worth it for those that are doing heavy transactions monthly.
• Meebo – The last application on my list is Meebo. This application allows you to connect all of your instant messenger accounts. You can then instant message those on platforms such as Yahoo! Messenger, AIM and more.
