Employees care about increased productivity and flexibility. While working remote, it’s critical to provide an easy-to-use, intuitive, and feature-rich solution for your staff.
The IT staff cares about ease of management and end-user empowerment. A phone system that enables this group to assist end users and make moves, adds, and changes – while being fully remote – is a necessity.
Learn the benefits of connecting your workforce remotely, the advantages of using mobile apps, and ways you can use Unified Communications to connect remote workers.
Here are some additional resources for remote workers that you may find helpful.
Remote working is a term used for people who are working from a location other than their office. This could be at home, such as many employees are doing to help with social distancing – or even when traveling on business or vacation.
Remote workers still need a way to be connected to the rest of the company to ensure clear communication and to get their jobs done right.
Remote Working is also known as teleworking, telecommuting, work from home, and distance working.
There are various ways that remote workers are able to stay connected to their team, whether their team is on-site in an office or are also working remotely. For verbal communication you can use softphone apps or route calls through a business phone system, like Switchvox, using the Switchboard, so that your business phone number sends the call where you want it. That can be to your cell phone, home line, or direct to voice mail.
Teleworkers can also use apps like Zulu or the Switchvox softphone on their mobile phones or desktop PCs to stay connected while on the go.
