Being on vacation and still being in control

By 4 August, 2010July 25th, 2024One Comment

The way people work is changing, and it’s changing fast. As in every aspect of life, changes require new solutions and generate new opportunities.

Not so long ago, cell phones did not exist, and being at work usually meant being inside an office. Nowadays, due to globalization and computerization, the time spent in an office can be minimized, all operations can be outsourced and superiors can handle responsibilities with a smartphone or a laptop without others even noticing their absence from the office.

The technology is widely available and prices are no longer prohibitive. Experts are predicting enormous growth rates for out-of-office workers, in most cases making use of Collaboration Platforms. The facts show that these tools not only improve information management in all types of teams, but they also enable teams to be really global. Being able to access the same information whether you are in New York, Delhi or London opens lots of possibilities.

Feng Office is an example of a tool that has enabled this kind of growth in Small and Medium Businesses. Low costs, ease of use, avoiding technical issues, and absence of initial investments are only some of the benefits business owners consider when choosing to run their companies using Feng Sky.

Collaboration Platforms clearly help users increase their productivity while integrating all the tools an information worker needs. These include email, calendars, pending tasks, documents, contact information, and favorite links. Most complete ones provide an overview panel that summarizes all this information and allows you to find the most recent news at a glance.

Being in control from a distance

Collaboration Platforms have opened lots of possibilities, companies are aware of them and are starting to take advantage of them. Remote access to all office files is the main factor that enables remote work. However, lots of other solutions -such as the ability to delegate a task remotely- make it very easy to be in control while out of the office.

Having an internet enabled device at hand becomes a synonym of having complete access to all documents, meeting minutes, emails, and all kinds of information your team manages. Going a little further, solutions such as Feng Office even include time-tracking possibilities. This allows project leaders to control each member of their team disregarding their physical location.

Feng Office can help you run your business while you are on vacation. But the best part is that allows you to be calm about it as your office will always be less than 5 minutes away.
