Like just about everything these days, the cloud communications industry is undergoing remarkable shifts at breakneck speeds, compelling service providers and MSPs to adapt swiftly to new trends and challenges.

During a time of economic downturn, contact centers are forced to do more with less. Even though this may sound difficult, it is entirely possibly with cloud solutions. The benefits of the cloud are reemerging, such as lower upfront costs, reduced IT staffing, and instant software updates. As a result, CCaaS investments are soaring. Those businesses who recognize the importance of the customer...

Last year, we posted a 3-part series on hybrid work, investing in technology to support a distributed workforce, streamlining virtual meetings, and managing a hybrid workforce. A year later, returning to the office is a very hot topic! As of Labor Day, many companies wanted their employees back in the office. Several CEOs are now demanding their workers come back to headquarters. As many CEOs...

In order to compe te in today's m ar ket, businesses need to be flexible and agile, which requires taking advantage of different tech nologies. These technologies, while developed to streamline businesses, can be overwhelming because there are so many different apps and tools, and these new technologies may not easily integrate into your current platform.

As we settle into another year that looks to be defined by flexible work arrangements, there has been an uptick in conversations about asynchronous collaboration. While it’d be fair to associate asynchronous work with the hybrid office as they’re often discussed in the same breath, it’s actually quite an established idea that most have experienced in any office job.

Managing a Hybrid Workforce

Hybrid Meetings

Following up on our first installment on technology for your hybrid workforce, this week we’re tackling how you can use those investments by focusing on hybrid meetings. We were all there for the explosion of the Zoom craze in early 2020 and, more likely than not, we all inevitably experienced “Zoom fatigue” in the months that followed. An Otter.ai study found that, of the over...

Invest in Tech

As thoughts of a post-pandemic world slowly begin to emerge, return to office (RTO) plans are top of mind for many business leaders these days. The growing need to balance workplace safety with worker preferences has led to the emergence of the hybrid model for RTO. While 2020 certainly showed us that work from home is not for everyone, it also highlighted how some people really...

Unexpected Growth of PSTN Uses
