Overview
The Google Workspace integration embeds Google Docs, Sheets, Forms, Slides, and Drive directly into the CRM. Staff can create, browse, and collaborate on Google documents without leaving the platform, and link Google files to CRM records.
Business value
Brings collaborative document editing into the CRM workflow so proposals, reports, meeting notes, and shared drives are accessible in context — linked to the relevant client, project, or contract.
- Who uses it: All staff who use Google Workspace for collaboration
- Key benefit: No more "where is that document?" — Google files are linked to CRM records and accessible without switching apps.
- Metrics it influences: Document collaboration speed, version control incidents, context-switching overhead
Typical use cases:
- Account manager opens a client's Google Sheet report directly from the client record in CRM
- Sales team creates a Google Slides pitch deck linked to an opportunity
- Operations stores project documentation in a Google Drive folder linked to the project record
- Marketing manager embeds a Google Form into a CRM lead capture flow
