Unfortunately, the CDC is expecting another round of outbreaks later this fall. However, with proper planning (now) with your IT Managed Services and Voice/VoIP provider, your business can stay fully or nearly fully operational. Systems can be put in place to allow some employees to work from home and others stay in the office, and even swap, or all from individual home offices.
There are several solutions that with correct network design and call flow can do to ensure that your business remains operational.
- Your employees are able to take their phones home and work off site. Proper Internet, simple cabling and modem setup must be in place.
- You can call forward your desk phones to your cell or home phone if you still have one. Imagine that, old tech to save the day.
- In addition to your cell phone receiving business calls, we have a cell phone APP that will make it appear that you are calling from your desk phone or main business number.
- We also can provide an interface where you can take and place calls from your desktop/laptop, manage the calls, dial from your Outlook contacts and much more.
- Your Toll Free Number can be redirected (often) to designated people out of the office to manage your calls, and with a VoIP phone, transfer those calls to other offsite employees.
