As we have adopted the new normal, the global pandemic hasn\u2019t defeated many hard-working managers and teams. They\u2019re protecting themselves from the virus, meeting deadlines, collaborating on projects, and hitting business goals, all while working from home. In this article, we\u2019ll go through a list of the essential tools for the new normal that is remote working.<\/p>\n

For both employers and employees, a remote working arrangement has attractive benefits. Organizations can tap into a potentially larger labor pool, hiring from just about anywhere and finding highly skilled talent at lower rates. Fifty percent of remote workers<\/a> reported increased job satisfaction and had 13.5 percent more calls completed. Being spared the stress of a daily commute and having a better work-life balance are factors that increase their happiness, and therefore, increase productivity.<\/p>\n

In the face of natural calamities, outages, and the ongoing pandemic, a distributed workforce becomes a necessary business continuity measure \u2014 a means to protect employees and keep productivity up, even as normal facilities remain unavailable. But all of this was only possible because we have the technologies to support remote work. Barriers to remote working have been brought down by the advancement of remote working tools. With a plethora of software to choose from, we\u2019ve selected the ones that help your remote teams thrive.<\/p>\n

Remote desktop applications<\/h2>\n

Accessing your work computer while on the go or out of the office was once unheard of. Remote desktop apps have made it possible, allowing users to work remotely on a computer through another device and from any location.<\/p>\n

For personal screen sharing, applications like Splashtop, AnyDesk, Zoom and TeamViewer, can allow quick ad hoc calls to sync up with other people. In a business environment, however, we recommend Microsoft Teams<\/a>, for enterprise-ready communication through chat, screen sharing, voice and video calls. Microsoft Teams and Zoom are well-known video chat and conferencing apps. However, as a full collaboration and communication suite, Teams offers more for Windows users. It allows VoIP, direct and group messages, and integration with all the Office 365 apps.<\/p>\n

Real-time communication and collaboration software<\/h2>\n

It is very important to communicate with your team as we say \u201cCommunication \u2013 the human connection \u2013 is the key to personal and career success.\u201d \u00a0When communication breaks down, productivity and engagement suffer. Given the lack of face-to-face contact, regular, real-time communication is arguably more critical for remote teams and their managers.<\/p>\n

With the current global crisis continuing to disrupt the return of employees to the office, remote working tools have become even more crucial to sustaining productivity, accomplishing projects, and solidifying distributed teams. It\u2019s important your organization chooses ones that are well-suited to budget, infrastructure, and goals.
