To make this task easier on you, we’ve compiled a list of several innovative apps that are bound to be big hits in 2013.

eSlip

Did your invoices pile up last year? Try eSlip, an invoicing app that manages and organizes invoices. You can create product lists, send out invoices, and keep track of your payments from any of your devices.

Maybe you want 2013 to be your year of big ideas. Forget old school brainstorming sessions. MindMeister, with its unique “mind-mapping” technology, is a new way of brainstorming. With MindMeister, your team submits and combines ideas online from anywhere, at anytime. Best of all, you can use MindMeister on any device you prefer.
