Free stuff is pretty great, and free stuff that makes you look brilliant and amazing is the best.  The AppExchange is a great source for free and amazing with more than 800 free apps that can help your entire organization be more productive.  

If you’re just getting started with the AppExchange, you’ll probably want to check out a few of our Salesforce Labs apps.  These apps are unmanaged packages available on the AppExchange designed to be completely customizable, easy to install, and super useful.

• Salesforce CRM Dashboards: A set of pre-built example dashboards that will give you a great place to start building your own.
• Salesforce Adoption Dashboards: Provide visibility into how well your organization is… well, adopting!
• Action Plans: Creates reusable task templates for Accounts, Opportunities, Contacts, or Leads which is very useful for productivity’s sake.
• MyCharts: Gives you a simple interface for creating charts that can be easily modified and shared with others, including inside the Salesforce1 Mobile App.
• Chatter Terms of Use: lets you make sure that every user actively agrees to comply with your terms of use. 

Free apps are good for more than dashboards and charts.  They’re also perfect for planning, staying organized, saving tons of time, and even inspiring your team every day.
