Many companies employ teleworking as a part of their telecommunications strategy. It offers flexibility to employees and saves companies money. However, it is important that your team has the appropriate tools to make it a feasible option. VoIP is one of the best solutions to support teleworking. Here’s why:
Fast and Reliable Communication
By using VoIP for your teleworking needs, you ensure that your communications are reliable. Not only does VoIP have some of the highest uptimes throughout the telecommunications industry, but you’ll enjoy the same great features you’d have at the office. For example, you can use video conferencing, file sharing, direct messaging, call management, etc.
Travel
Using VoIP as your teleworking solution allows you to connect to personal devices like smartphones, laptops, tablets, etc. This means that even if you are traveling you’ll still be connected to your system.
Collaboration
Using VoIP to telework isn’t only about the individual; you can also seamlessly collaborate with colleagues. By using features like video calls and real-time file sharing you can work on projects with teammates just as easily as if you were all at the office.
Security
One worry about working away from the office is security. What happens if you try to access sensitive data on an unfamiliar WiFi network? This can leave you susceptible to hackers. However, when you use VoIP to make calls and share data, all of your information remains secure. If you use a VPN (Virtual Private Network) in conjunction with VoIP, any information you access over your business’s network will be encrypted during delivery. You can rest easy that when working from home your data will be safe with VoIP.
