Fast-paced communication with instant messaging
Looking for a little tidbit of information from a few months ago? There is a search function involved where you can type in a keyword and shoot straight back to that part of the conversation.
Add a personal touch with video calls
Another great feature for remote companies — and international office-based ones — are video calls. Meetings via video call replicate the in-person experience in a way that standard phone calls simply can’t. Hold general company-wide meetings or even your daily stand-ups with Bitrix24’s HD video call software and open up the floor to any questions at the end.
Every video call has a live chat feature if you need to share links or email addresses and you can take notes of meetings and save them in the Minutes section.
But video calls aren’t just for efficient working. You can really bring a remote team together with recurring social meetings.
Team communication tools for project management
Sometimes the best internal communications software includes non-traditional channels.
Bitrix24’s business communication software comes with project management tools so you can keep all of your project-specific chat in one handy place. Forget lost emails or searching through instant messenger for the instructions and start passing all the information through your project management tool.
Every task is assigned to a selection of people, including a responsible person, participants, and observers. Each of these gets notified of every update, meaning you don’t have to announce each completed action. You can even set up dependencies, so when one task ends, the next is automatically assigned, sending a notification to those who need to be informed.
Collaboration as communication
Take advantage of another innovative bit of communication software for business with collaborative docs. Rather than sending complicated instructions through your instant messenger, your whole team can edit a document simultaneously. Once you've reviewed the final draft, change the access rights so no more edits can be made and you've got yourself a refined document.
One of the main advantages of collaborative documents in terms of business communication is that you only have one working file. This eliminates the issue of multiple versions of the same doc that can get very messy very quickly. Instead, you can go through past versions of your single document if you ever need to unearth information from the past.
Bringing it all together: an employee directory
Especially good for people in big companies or new hires, an employee directory is a database with every employee’s profile on it. Search by name or role and find the contact details for anybody you need.
Bitrix24 lets you see if each person is available or not before you call them or send an instant message. And when setting up meetings, you'll be aware of everybody's future availability before you even send the invitation.
