Here at Torris, we believe that all start-up, small and enterprise businesses stand to benefit from utilising various software applications, so we’ve created a list of our favourite useful resources for small businesses.

We’ve researched, tested and now use these tools daily so were happy to recommend them.

NB: We are not affiliated to any of the software providers detailed below, we just love them and thought we would share them with you

Trello is a project management and collaboration tool that gives you a visual overview of what is being worked on, who is working on it, and how far they’ve progressed.

This helps individuals and teams collaborate better and keep their projects organised.

Adobe Creative Cloud is a collection of creative design desktop applications and mobile apps that we use to create content for print, web, and mobile devices.

We use Adobe Creative Cloud daily and it’s probably our most used tool.

HubSpot is a marketing, sales, and customer service platform that help companies grow.

They’ve created resources and free tools that offer insights and inspiration to help business owners succeed in an ever-changing digital landscape.

LastPass is a password storage solution that stores all your usernames and passwords securely in one place, simply login from any device with your master password and LastPass will remember and autofill your login credentials to the sites you frequently visit.

Canva is a simple to use online graphics tool which enables you to create social media graphics, header banners and promotional leaflets etc with little or no graphic design experience. Access and edit thousands of templates and quickly create visuals for your business.

Hootsuite is a great social media management tool that helps you manage your social media profiles.

Hootsuite supports most social media platforms and it enables you to schedule your updates and create streams for each social media account you manage.

Feedly is an RSS Reader that we use to gather, collate and organise all the blogs and websites that we follow into one place so we’re not jumping from one website to another.

It’s a brilliant tool that saves us a lot of time.
