Online instead of offline
Online instead of offline
At the moment, property management companies are facing a huge challenge – making it possible for their employees to work from home. Every company needs a couple of different systems in place to cover all aspects of business life and to ensure good record-keeping. Most of the time, accessing these systems is not possible from home or comes with a lot of technical challenges.
In this blog post, we are very briefly going to present the most useful cloud solutions that need little to no time and effort to set up. Always remember: Life goes on even in the most uncertain of times.
Video conferencing tools
To reduce social interactions as much as possible, people have been advised to do meetings online rather than offline. You can choose from a variety of providers such as Skype, Zoom or Google Hangouts to host meetings from wherever you are. With video calls, you can keep in touch with colleagues, business partners or customers regularly without having to leave the house. The only thing you won’t be able to do without: a stable internet connection. The Guardian has even compiled a list of useful tips for successful video conferencing sessions.
Messenger tools
To enable your team to communicate online (or to optimise online communication), we suggest you try a digital messenger tool like Slack. You can write short messages on Slack rather than lengthy emails (to make it feel more like you’re having a real conversation with someone), and use the audio and video call feature to collaborate more effectively as a team.
