Remote and Hybrid work is the most challenging aspect of every business, especially due to COVID where collaboration has become the top priority. The pandemic outbreak has taught us 2 things:
- Nothing can replace human work and digitization was the need of the hour.
- We need to go hand in hand with both to empower our workforce.
Remote work is not possible without the cooperation of employees. At the same time, we need the best software to enable smooth collaboration to try our best substitute for not meeting your work colleagues.

Two major advantages were provided by remote work:
Encourages employees to stay loyal to you
Working remotely was most desired by job seekers. According to Mom Corps, a flexible staffing firm, 42% of employees wanted to take a salary cut in order to have more flexible work options from their employers. Employees’ willingness to agree with a lower pay scale in exchange for the ability to work from home shows the value that employees place on work-life integration. Employees tend to be happier with flexible work plans, increasing company loyalty.
Reduces Global warming and carbon emissions
Hubstaff recently surveyed 400 business owners on their pandemic insights and found that remote work helped prevent layoffs in 66% of companies, and 44% of companies expected remote work to increase profits. By not having to maintain a physical building, employers can dramatically cut costs of rent, office supplies, utilities, etc., and can reinvest cost savings for growth.
Advantages apart, Many people have started adopting private channels to support learning, workforce hiring, and writing exams, given the uncertainty of the lockdown. Moreover, it gives people worldwide access to their workplace or institution from their homes. Virtual software was in high demand, and popular collaboration tools were used along with it. The tools that experienced tremendous growth in usage and purchase during this time were Microsoft Skype, Zoom meetings, Microsoft Teams, Slack, and Discord.
