New! Upload Any File to Google Docs with Manymoon

January 12, 2010

Sharing documents is a fundamental part of working in groups, large or small.  Most people in the workplace still share documents through email, which can be a hassle.  It’s easy to lose track of which version different people are using and it’s difficult to access your files when you’re away from your computer.

Today we are making file sharing and collaboration easier with the ability to upload any file to Google Docs directly from Manymoon.  Now you can upload and store any type of file to Google Docs right from your team space on Manymoon.  Using Manymoon, you can seamlessly attach these files to your online tasks, projects and events.  For example, in addition to documents you might have pictures (.jpg files), diagrams (.png files) and custom files (.psd, .dwg, etc) that are part of your project.  You can now use Google Docs as your consolidated file storage for the entire project!

Your storage quota is managed in Google Docs which allows you to focus on getting work done instead of worrying about how many files are being attached to the project.

To get started, create a project or task in Manymoon, invite your collaborators and attach any files from your computer. You now have the option to store the files in Google Docs:

Manymoon manages file permissions and automatically shares files only with people who have access to that task, project or event.  You can access these files, along with the rest of your Google Docs, from within Manymoon.  You can also scan a list of the files you’ve uploaded and easily see which tasks and projects they’re associated with in Manymoon:

We hope you enjoy this new integration of Google Docs and Manymoon. As always, we’d love your feedback!

    Excellent feature, thank you!

  2. Victor Says:

    When I created a sample project, I got the following warning from Google:

    “This website has not registered with Google to establish a secure connection for authorization requests. We recommend that you continue the process only if you trust the following destination:

    “https://manymoon.com/google/auth?googleAction=upload”

    That doesn’t give me a lot of warm fuzzies….

  3. Manymoon Says:

    Victor – that message is Google’s standard security warning and there’s no way around it.

    A couple of points about security though:

    * Manymoon does not store any of your Google data (e.g., Google Docs, Google Calendar events, Google username/password). All of that is stored and managed by Google. Manymoon only reads it for use within the application.

    * We have a large number of businesses using Manymoon everyday to integrate Google Apps into projects and tasks. You can read some case studies (https://www.manymoon.com/misc/help?goto=caseStudy) and customer reviews in the Google Solutions Marketplace.

    • Victor Says:

      Hmm — Google’s warning implies that you could have established a more secure connection, but chose not to. I doubt they would ever change it, but maybe as part of the file upload you could tell Manymoon users to expect (and disregard) the message.

    Doesn’t manymoon create accounts for each Google Apps account? If we delete an account from Google, how can we delete it from ManyMoon?

    Just getting started with Manymoon, but I have a suggestion to improve integration with Google Docs – allow us to upload a document to Gdocs via Manymoon and also to select which folder that document lands in. This is important for my small business where we need to keep a large number of documents carefully filed on Google docs. Currently, I have to go to gdocs and sort the destination of the file that has just been uploaded – a two-step process where it need not be.

    • Josh Says:

      I agree, this GDocs folder support would be beneficial if it can be added gracefully.

    • Morten Says:

      Great suggestion :-)

      … all in all the thinking of cutting down necesary action sted in any rutine is the key

      in the 3 words: Gappsintegration, Gappsintegration and Gappsintegration :-D

      Looking forward to a IPhone app, like the google gadget .. any chances of that in the near future???

      But great product so far … some of the other apps marketplace solution could learn a lot about google apps integration from you.

  15. DaveL Says:

    I was trying to upload a document into google apps, and was hoping to see that the tags I applied were carried through to google apps, but I got an error message saying I needed google apps premier edition – I was using the education edition – any reason why that’s different?

    Otherwise, impressive integration!

  17. Tried to find a way to upload files using Google Docs, but it seem that I only can upload documents, spreadsheets and presentations.

    What am I doing wrong?

    Hi A–
    Apologies for our delayed response.
    With Manymoon you have the ability to either create a new Google doc new Manymoon, or add existing Google Docs to Manymoon.

    Alternatively, you can save your PDF to Manymoon and it will be accessible from the Documents tab at left.
