Google Campfire One: Apps Marketplace, Part 3

>> DAVID: ...and Mindy from Intuit, who are going to show you how, using pretty much exactly
the same integration points, they've taken a business critical application, Payroll,
and used the same technical capabilities that we just demo'd on a toy app to solve a real
business problem, which is Payroll, and to do that in a way that is well integrated with
Google Apps and part of the family of Apps. So, Martin.
>> MARTIN: Great, thanks, David. So you probably--many of you may know Intuit. Maybe you don't know
that Intuit is the largest or most popular payroll service provider in the nation. We
have about a million customers right now having their payroll provided by Intuit. And some
of them using our online service that we're gonna show here. The kind of customers we
serve, they're usually very small customers--five, six, seven employees there. When you went
to a sandwich shop today to get your lunch or you go to a coffee shop, those are the
kind of people who use our service, and there's about 6 million employers in the U.S. Most
of 'em are the smaller end of the market, less than 20 employees. So here this is the
page that we were just looking at. Are we on the demo now? We're ready for that. So
that we can add our app. There we go. So Mindy's adding the application just like David showed,
but this is ours, of course. We have the same set of clicks, the terms of service. We agree
and continue. The next step is data access. We have the calendar access 'cause we're gonna
put some stuff about your payroll--when your paydays are in particular in the employees
calendar and the employers calendar. That's some user provisioning. And then we enable
the app. So that's all quite quick and straightforward. There is the setting up of the payroll, which
takes a little bit longer. You have to put in all the employees. We're not gonna demo
that today, so we're gonna switch over to another company now where we've already set
up the payroll stuff and show you how the payroll works inside of Google Apps. So here
it typically starts where you get an email from us reminding you that it's time to do
your payroll. We'll go to the universal nav up there on the top and click on Intuit Online
Payroll. And in our case, we've chosen to have you reenter your same credentials for
your Google Apps. Just there's some confidential data in Payroll, as you can imagine. We just
want to make sure that's all safe and the right person looking at it. And here we go.
So this is the to-do list. We will show you, typically, what you would do with your taxes
and your forms. In this case, there's not a lot to do other than--oh, look at that.
Somebody--Mindy wants a raise. What's that, Mindy? So we're just gonna go straight to
Payday and skip that giving her a raise business. But we will put in some hours for Mindy so
that she gets paid for this week, and then create the paychecks. Up they come. And that's
it. Paychecks are calculated. You can see that the numbers are all right, that a small
business would typically approve them at that point. And there's a few more steps. They
can print them out if they want to. They can also send email to the employees to let them
know their payroll's available. So that's it. Payroll's done. We really focus on that,
making it simple to do Payroll, and with the integration with Google Apps, it's simple
to use the same credentials that you already use. In this case, we're also gonna have Mindy
show that she just got paid and how she can see her pay stub. Mindy?
>> MINDY: Yes. So I am buying a new car, a Jetta TDI, and Volkswagen, in order to approve
my auto loan, needs a copy of my latest pay stub as proof of employment, so let me show
you how easy it is to get my pay stub through Google Apps. I'm gonna log into my calendar.
Hmm. Wanted to make this experience feel real. >> MARTIN: If anyone would like to make guesses
about what that CAPTCHA says. She might be accepting...
>> MINDY: So that was so easy. I get to my calendar, and you can see I have a little
paycheck icon on my last payday. So I can click on this to view my pay stub. In the
past, I would have had to track it down on my own records or bug my employer to get my
pay stub. But now because of the integration between Google Apps and Intuit's employee
website, I can actually just log in directly to my calendar and get right to my pay stub.
I can print it right from here. And I'm done. It's that easy.
>> MARTIN: So we're really excited to be part of this Marketplace. The same kind of businesses
that use Google Apps are the ones that use our payroll solution, and we're just looking
forward to adding more to what we've already started here today. David.
>> DAVID: Thank you.
So what you just saw is Intuit using some very simple points of integration to the Marketplace,
building their payroll application into the Google Apps family, so it feels just like
part of the family. Good luck with that loan. I hope they help you get your car. So... I'd
like to bring up our next demo now. So I'm going to be introducing Scott from Atlassian
who flew in earlier today from the other side of the world, and Scott's gonna show us the
demo of integration that uses a lot of different points of integration, a lot of the different
extension points, to show how their entire suite of development tools can be connected
with lots of different points of connection with Google's suite of communication and collaboration
tools. Scott. >> SCOTT: Thanks, David. My name's Scott Farquhar,
and I'm really excited to be here to demonstrate the integration we've built. Atlassian sells
software development tools to 17,000 companies worldwide, and we've built kick-ass integration
between Google Apps and our online hosted development suite, JIRA Studio. Today you're
gonna see the best integrated product in the Google Marketplace. Let's consider our software
development team. Say that I'm a project manager--and I'll switch to the demo now. Say I'm a project
manager. I spend all my day in email, and what I really want is the information about
my projects delivered to me directly in email. You can see on the left-hand side of the screen
here, we've got a list of issues that are assigned to me. Now this list of issues comes
directly from JIRA studio and uses the gadget technology to embed it inside Gmail. With
one click, I can get more information about this issue and interact with it directly.
We can see on this particular issue the technical lead on the project can't start development
because we're missing the design specification. Now because our company is standardized on
Google Docs for all our information, it's simple to simply click through to search for
and attach the design specification to this issue. We think that this integration is gonna
save a whole heap of time for companies that use Google Docs as well as JIRA Studio. Let's
instead take a different member of the software project. Let's take the software development
lead. Now, while the development lead starts their day in Gmail, they quickly want to dive
into Studio to get some work done. Now using the universal navigation bar described earlier,
we can click through and, using the open ID integration, not have to re-log in. Now many
of you will be familiar with JIRA, the number one issue tracking system. JIRA combines the
power of-- well, Studio combines the power of JIRA with Wiki, Source Code, Code Review,
and Continuous Integration in one online hosted development suite. Now you can see here with
the dashboard for JIRA Studio, it's an iGoogle-like dashboard. And we've used the same technology
that Google uses, the same open social technology, in our products, and that means that we can
take Google boards and Google gadgets and embed them directly inside this dashboard,
as you can see with the Google Translate gadget that we have. Of course, you can also take
Studio gadgets and display them inside Google applications such as iGoogle or Gmail, like
you saw previously. Now the power of Studio is that we've got all these development applications
in one suite, and on the left-hand side, you can see the list of recent activity across
the entire development tools. Let's quickly jump through to the issue that we saw earlier.
Now because I'm the technical lead, I want to take this design specification and ensure
that it's complete before I send it to my developers to begin work. Now with a simple
click, I can quickly review this document without leaving Studio, without having to
re-authenticate or log in. I can review this document, and if I need to make any changes,
with one click I'll be sent straight to Google Docs where I can make those changes, and they'll
be reflected in real time. We think again this is going to save a whole heap of time.
So just to recap what we've shown you, we've shown you putting gadgets from Gmail-- sorry,
gadgets from Google inside Studio and gadgets from Studio inside Gmail. And we've shown
you that the real power of the integration for Google Docs. But the thing I'm most excited
about is the Studio activity bar. The Studio activity bar is at the bottom of every page
in Studio. And on the left-hand side gives you fingertip access to all the applications
in Studio and all the applications in Google Apps. And on the right-hand side, we've integrated
Google Talk. So Google Talk allows me to instantly collaborate with my colleagues and let them
know what's--you know, what they need to do next. So in this particular case, this feature's
ready to work--ready to begin work. So I'm gonna send it to Dan the developer and, using
our permalink feature, I can instantly send him the page that we're working on. Now of
course this saves us a whole heap of time of jumping back and forth between applications
and searching for the people in our team. So here we've sent information to Dan, and
then we have to set up a meeting to discuss with him later. Now we think this integration
of Chat between your colleagues is incredibly powerful. But we didn't to stop there. We
thought, well, what can we do to take advantage of this integration between JIRA Studio...
