When the attendees of the 2014 Global Leadership Summit were polled about modern business challenges, most responded with predictions that at least 50% of their employees would by working remotely by 2020. The New York Times also reported a movement in that direction, noting a 79% increase in the telecommuting workforce from 2005 to 2012.
While this rapidly changing environment comes with its own challenges and potential headaches, there’s a simple solution that can keep your business ahead of the curve: a cloud-based VoIP phone system. Cloud-based solutions allow employees to access any application, file, network, or communication service from anywhere. All they need is a secure Internet connection.
Businesses that wait to make the switch from traditional, on-site phone systems will face increasing threats to connectivity as well as employee and customer satisfaction alike. As the workforce becomes more remote, these challenges will present themselves sooner than later:
COSTS
QUALITY
SCALABILITY AND FLEXIBILITY
Cloud-based solutions improve the speed and capabilities of each of your remote employees—whether they’re in Denver, Salt Lake City, or New Mexico—making your company more scalable, flexible, and reliable.
When you’re ready to enhance your systems, processes, and applications by making the switch to a cloud-based VoIP system, contact VLCM for more information.
