Many businesses have now been forced to strengthen their remote working solutions in recent days. Thanks to the benefits of VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol), remote working is easier than ever before. Better yet, it is cost-effective regardless of your company’s size. Here are some of the best solutions to make working from home just as simple as if you were in the office.
Softphones
A softphone is a type of software that lets your employees make and receive calls through the internet. It is very convenient because you can install it not only on a PC but also on your cell phone. This is advantageous because it gives you the benefits of a Business Phone System as long as you have an internet connection. If you need to work from home, you can still have access to your company’s VoIP network simply by using a softphone.
Conference phones
Nearly all companies use conference phones these days. If you have remote employees or multiple locations, they permit your team to stay connected easily. Conference phones usually have echo cancellation, HD voice, and detachable microphones. All of these features assist in ensuring that sound works well on both ends of the call. This is why conference phones are so popular for handling large meetings.
Videoconferencing solutions
One step up from a conference phone is video conferencing. Not only do most videoconferencing solutions offer great connections, but they are a fantastic collaboration tool. In these times where remote working is a must, a videoconferencing solution is the next best thing to actually meeting with a colleague or customer face to face.
