Telecommuting is a relatively recent concept. The idea of working from home instead of taking a long drive to the office can be a very appealing one, especially if your drive is half an hour or more in city traffic. While telecommuting has its disadvantages, overall it can be a very good experience and decision for some employees that do not necessarily need to be in the office at all times. One of the best companies for telecommuting services is Avaya. Check out the list of reasons to telecommute with Avaya.
- One of the highest costs for most adults and commuters is vehicle maintenance and gas. You can reduce this cost by 20% or more simply by telecommuting a few days per week rather than going into the office every day. This way you get to keep more of the paycheck that you make and have to spend less time getting to and from work. Most Americans spend 100 hours or moor commuting every year. Can you imagine what you could do with those extra hours?
- Avaya’s telecommuting service, “Scopia,” makes it simple to communicate with colleagues. It works in a similar way to Skype but the overall performance of the system is higher quality. In order to use this program, everyone is on camera. It makes it feel like a real conference room where you can see and interact with your colleagues just as you would in the office. It is safer to communicate with than most services, offering encryption and firewall protection.
- You can save energy for work. Instead of wasting all of that time and energy on commute times, you’ll have more energy to be productive at work. When you’re getting more sleep and have more personal time, you’re more likely to get better quality work done. While you’ll have the ability to talk to your colleagues via Scopia, you’ll also be somewhere that it is easier to focus and there are fewer distractions.
Telecommuting may not be for everyone, but if you’re someone who is tired of making the drive, let Avaya help you to telecommute with their specialized technologies for all platforms, networks, and devices.
