One of the biggest challenges companies faced during the COVID-19 global pandemic was the overnight change in nearly every aspect of business operations. With the transition to the new normal and with face-to-face meetings out of the picture, communication technologies that foster collaboration and connection quickly became essential. As the world continues to grapple with the pandemic and prepare for future emergencies, the right technologies will be key in business continuity.
It is likely that travel and in person face-to-face meetings will continue to come in second to safer, more cost-effective digital solutions. That is because businesses that embraced communications services — such as Hosted Unified Communications (UC) — realized a number of added value benefits. Using solutions built on powerful cloud infrastructure is the way to future-proof your business and smooth over any remaining bumps in your company’s transition to a hybrid or fully-remote workplace.
Capabilities to Consider
When choosing the right communications technology for your organization, it is important to make sure you can:
- Easily connect to your network from anywhere.
- Remotely access essential data.
- Remotely access tools and collaboration platforms.
- Effectively and reliably collaborate with teams.
- Consistently provide robust support to customers.
