Back then, companies had a preconceived notion that remote work leads to less focus and more communication errors among employees. But now, collaboration—regardless of location—has become a norm for a growing number of businesses.  Many are raving that working outside the office increases their productivity. The surprising thing is people who work remotely have a higher drive to do their tasks compared to in-office employees. Thanks to software-based teleconferencing solutions, the myth that collaborating beyond borders makes work difficult is finally debunked. Teleconferencing is a great solution to persistent meeting roadblocks such as horrendous traffic, out-of-sync schedules, and a lack of available meeting spaces. It also offers a modernized way of holding meetings without requiring every team member to be physically present. In fact, it offers widely distributed teams a chance to connect anywhere and in any part of the globe. A wide selection of teleconferencing tools—from voice- and video-based platforms to chat room applications—are already available. However, only a few offer functions that eliminate the need to switch from one platform to another, especially during meetings. Enter Zoom , an enterprise video-first communication platform that combines HD video and audio conferencing, chat and webinar solutions, and software-based conference room systems. Zoom caters to those who need scalability and high functionality in one easy-to-use teleconferencing solution. Here are more reasons why Zoom is the right video conferencing tool for modernizing how teams collaborate: 1. Zoom has extensive features rolled into one platform. A report from Forbes Insights on The Connected Culture: Unleashing the Power of Video in Everyday Collaboration states that 62% of organizations use three or more teleconferencing solutions. The reason: employees find it easier to use various tools since essential functions are not present in one application.
