Scroll quickly through Google Docs on your iPhone or iPad – A new scrolling feature is available for iOS devices. On an iPhone or iPad, you can use a new scroll button to look through a lengthy Google Doc. It works similarly to the Google Outline tool. The scroll button recognizes headers or emphasized text.

Email Safety Tips in Office 365 – Over the next few weeks, Office 365 is rolling out Safety Tips in Exchange Online Protection.

All tips are color coded depending on their meaning and serve as helpful reminders to always be mindful of the all-to-often spam and malware attacks.

New Features Available in the Zenefits Administrator Dashboard – As an administrator, it’s important to be able to access many accounts on Zenefits. Now, administrators only have to use one login to access multiple accounts. A second update to the dashboard enables administrators to get a head start on the I-9 verification process. Once an employee provides his or her citizenship status on the Eligibility Verification section on the onboarding process, administrators can begin their side of the process.
