Every business needs clear, concise communication to prosper in today’s business world. Whether it’s communicating with branches in other areas or regularly connecting with clients to conduct business, it’s a necessary aspect of our working life. But how do we go about streamlining communications in the digital age?
The wide variety of communication tools at our fingertips can be downright mind-boggling sometimes. Telephone calls, texts, emails, instant messages – to keep up, it seems as if you need to alternate back and forth between these services like some star tennis player desperately swatting the ball. So why not consolidate and streamline that process to make your business life just a little bit easier?
Intermedia Unite – How it Works
Cloud-based communications offer a way to merge all those different forms of communications into one cohesive system.
For telephone services, you have VoIP or (Voice over Internet Protocol), which converts your voice into digital packets and transfers them over the internet from any mobile device or networked PC.
For messaging, you have built-in team chat and business SMS services that allow your workgroups to discuss projects in real-time. This feature also comes complete with status updates for employees, so you know who’s available!
Video conferencing is also a snap with Intermedia Unite cloud-based communications. Gone are the days of worrying if you’ll make it into the office for that big presentation. Now you can do it all from any mobile device!
Your team will also be able to work together more efficiently with our backup and cloud sharing platform. This feature allows easy collaboration without the hassles of repeated email chains.
