Google rolled out five new time-saving features in G Suite that are designed to simplify the way you work. It also rebranded Google Apps Directory Sync as Google Cloud Directory Sync, and as of February 1, 2017, it will discontinue service for Drive for Mac/PC desktop app versions 1.27 and lower. Asana launched Wavelength, their new publication for teams. A new integration between Slack and Google Drive now lets you create and share Docs and Drive files directly within Slack.
