\n<\/p>\n

Google today launched a new tool for its business customers called Google Cloud Search<\/a>, which will allow users to search across G Suite products, including Drive, Gmail, Sites, Calendar, Docs, Contacts, and more. The service was previously available in a limited preview<\/a> where it was then known as Springboard, and described<\/a> as something like a Google Now for enterprise workers.<\/p>\n

Springboard, now Cloud Search, is designed for use in larger companies where different groups\u00a0and individuals have access to different files. The search service respects file sharing permissions, so users can only access what\u2019s available to them, whether that\u2019s\u00a0company-wide resources like a policy manual, team projects, or documents only they can see.<\/p>\n

In addition to surfacing work documents, Cloud Search works as a directory service, allowing users\u00a0to seek out colleagues\u2019 contact information, while also viewing the events and files they have in common. When viewing a contact\u2019s info in the search results, users are able to click to start an email, phone call, or start a Hangout.<\/p>\n

Similar\u00a0to Google Now, Google Cloud Search employs a card-style design to present information to you, whether you\u2019re accessing the search service via your phone or laptop. Also\u00a0like Google Now, the service takes advantage of machine intelligence in order to highlight information it thinks you\u2019re most likely to need. In these cards \u2013 or \u201cassist cards,\u201d as they\u2019re called \u2013 Google Cloud Search will pop up things like recently accessed files, meeting reminders, notes and more.<\/p>\n

\"prepare_your_next_meeting_v3\"<\/p>\n

Adding machine\u00a0intelligence to enhance its productivity tools\u00a0has been a focus for Google in recent months. Alongside with the (still questionable) G Suite rebranding<\/a>, the company announced<\/a> a bevy of machine intelligence-powered features, including \u201cQuick Access\u201d in Drive that would predict which file you needed next before you began typing. Google claimed at the time this would take 50% off the average time it takes to pull up the right file.<\/p>\n

Translated into a predictive search service via Google Cloud Search, the goal is to offer a similar productivity increase to G Suite users. As Google notes in a blog post<\/a> announcing Cloud Search, workers today spend 20% of their week searching for and consolidating information. The new service aims to reduce\u00a0that figure.<\/p>\n

Google Cloud Search is rolling out now for customers using G Suite Business and Enterprise editions. In the future, Google says it will introduce more features and will integrate with third-party applications.<\/p>\n
