Toggl is a must-have for any business owner who wants to know where their time goes. I LOVE their easy-to-use time tracking tool with calendar interface (think Google Calendar) that provides a visual for how you’ve spent your time each day.

BitWarden is an encrypted password vault with both desktop and mobile apps so you can access your passwords on any device. I also love that they have a password-generator feature AND that it’s free.
FILE STORAGEMega*
Mega is similar to Dropbox and Google Drive in that it provides a way to store and share files in the cloud. However, what makes Mega different is that it’s a more secure alternative by being end-to-end encrypted and gives you 10x the storage as Dropbox on their free plan.
