Refractiv celebrates a year of its innovative Google Apps tips website at Buy Yorkshire 2013

Refractiv, one of Yorkshire’s leading IT services providers, celebrated the first anniversary of its innovative Google Apps help website, gAppsTips.com, at the Buy Yorkshire conference last week by giving away a new Nexus 7 tablet. The competition prize was presented by Raja Saggi, Head of SMB Marketing at Google whose talk, 5 easy ways to online success, was a sell-out event on the second day of the conference. gAppsTips.com was launched to provide a one-stop shop for the growing number of Google Apps for Business users to make the most of Gmail, Calendar, Drive and more. A premium reseller of Google Apps, Refractiv counts some of Yorkshire’s top businesses amongst its clients and is developing an increasing profile nationally and internationally.

gAppsTipps now attracts almost 30,000 visitors a month and has grown a strong social media following. Richard Atkinson, COO of Refractiv said: “Through gAppstips, we’re helping businesses to wake up to the versatility of Google Apps, which offers much more than a traditional email service. While we can’t create more hours in the day, we can help people to be more productive, save time, and to make their Google experience more satisfying.”

Refractiv was one of 170 exhibitors at the annual Buy Yorkshire conference in Leeds, held on 24-25 April. The event is the biggest B2B conference in North of England, attracting over 3,000 delegates to network and participate in a variety of workshops, seminars and expert panels.
