Pros

You can easily create a group i.e. Maintenance and share that with anyone that you would like to have access to the maintenance groups contact information.
You can give permissions to some people or not which will allow them to make changes to the contacts. This can help to keep the information up-to-date for everyone.
This has made sharing contacts and organizing our information so much easier!

Cons

I have been looking for a way to share our contacts within our organization for a while now. This process really improves how we were doing it within Google Sheets.
My only negative is that it has taken so long for it to be functional within Google.

Return on Investment

Shared contacts is having a positive impact on our overall ROI by making us more efficient. We are spending less time emailing, calling, or popping in to get contact information to each other.
We can now organize our contacts in a more professional manner and nobody is asking what do we call the document that we saved our vendor information on.
