The importance of Staying in touch

If your team is used to the close-knit environment of a traditional office you may find the idea of home-working quite unnerving. 

Internal communication is critical to any business, but it’s particularly important to businesses where collaboration on tasks is a key aspect of the working day. Fortunately, remote working has never been so easy with the availability of powerful collaboration and communication apps such as Microsoft Teams.

Microsoft Teams

The huge choice of communication platforms can often feel overwhelming, with so much choice how can you be confident that you’re choosing the one that fulfils all your needs? Well look no further, Microsoft Teams is the comprehensive collaboration platform that you’ve been looking for.

Here are some of its key features:

Instant messaging

While not the most revolutionary feature, Instant messaging is a cornerstone of the Teams user experience. Instead of muddling through a haze of emails you can have real-time conversations with individuals or groups. Assemble groups for specific projects and share files quickly and effortlessly, you’ll wonder how you ever managed without it.

Instantaneous document editing

Teams supports Office Web apps allowing several people to alter a document in real-time. This fast-tracks collaboration and does away with the clunky process of sending and resending attachments via email.

Voice/ Video calling

As great as Teams’ instant messaging is, there will come a time where you just want to grab the phone and call someone. Fortunately, Teams has got you covered with its integrated voice and video conferencing function. You can host meetings with up to 250 people (yes, that’s right, 250!). You can also screenshare, share notes, add a whiteboard and perform various other functions.
