In the wake of COVID- 19, working from home has become the new normal for almost every business. Making this adjustment can be a major challenge, but the right tools can help you maximize your productivity:
Google Hangouts is communication software developed by Google that features numerous, integrated tools that are helpful for any home office. Even within the limitations of its free version, features like Gmail, Hangouts chat, Meet video conferencing, and Drive storage, are highly effective in supporting remote team communication and collaboration.
Trello is a web-based application that uses a Kanban list-making approach to help sync tasks and workflows between team members. The tool provides users with an intuitive array of features, such as boards, lists, and cards, to help track projects at any scale and ensure easy collaboration between teams.
Help Scout is a help desk tool for customer support. The service allows team members to control a shared customer service email inbox that integrates live chat, telephonic connections, CRMs, and email marketing tools, making it easier for teams to provide personalized and timely service.
Employee engagement is a prerequisite for productivity. Vantage Circle can help. The platform enables organizations to implement an employee benefits and engagement platform. The tools make it easier to acknowledge your workers’ hard efforts, issue rewards, and drive greater engagement.
Few things are as frustrating as being on a conference call with a lot of background noise. But now there’s an app for that: Krisp is a simple but powerful tool that can mute any background noise, in nearly any audio or video communications application. Let the dog bark and your kid scream – you may still be going out of your mind, but with Krisp, makers say, the person on the other end of your call won’t know.
