Here at Tradeshift, we’re always on the lookout for the tools that help SMBs run more efficiently.  Our latest favorites follow below:
 
  1. GroupPrice –  GroupPrice is a B2B daily deals site, touting discount offers to SMBs — from Twitter services to Google local listings.
  2. RetroCalc – The simple RetroCalc calculator app is not only easy to use, it comes with a side of nostalgia, letting you choose classic calculator designs from the ‘70s and ‘80s.
  3. Edison – Edison uses Windows power settings to reduce the energy computers consume when idle. It tells you how much carbon you have saved, as well as  how much money you’ve saved.
  4. Ambiance – Ambiance is an “environment enhancer” iPhone app that delivers relaxing white noise so you can better concentrate at work.  A great alternative for those who find music distracting.

  1. SoonR – Soonr allows you to access and share documents straight from your mobile phone.  If you’re ever stuck somewhere without your computer, you can retrieve a simple file from your PC or Mac using your phone.
  2. Bonus: HardlyWork.in – Even the most efficient workers take occasional “Facebook breaks” — HardlyWork.in helps you do so without looking like a slacker by turning your Facebook news feed into a phony Excel spreadsheet.
