Collaboration tool
Ever since the Covid-19 outbreak, various businesses including schools, offices and even government offices have had to be closed down temporarily, forcing employees to work remotely, meaning more and more companies are adopting flexible working solutions.
"Organizations of all kinds are adapting to new ways for their employees to communicate, collaborate, and be productive, regardless of their location or the device they're using, with the help of easy-to-use cloud solutions that empower a mobile, remote workforce," said Jim Chirico, Avaya's president and CEO.
Avaya’s solutions are most commonly used in contact centres globally, and with the introduction of this new tool, the company aims to assist organisations carry out their business continuity plans while keeping employee health in mind.
