Technology will play a major role in your organization’s ability to quickly adapt to market changes, better serve your customers and remain operational through unforeseen circumstances. An agile business needs to be flexible and resilient. Here we take a look at a few key pieces of technology that will help you reach those objectives.
Cloud Computing
“Business agility is enabled by the cloud by reducing complexities in a company’s IT operations by simplifying their management and thus, reducing costs. It fosters better delivery of internal resources that increases employee productivity and improves responsiveness to the customers.”
Cloud Storage
“Using the cloud for storage gives you access to your files from anywhere that has an internet connection. In the event of a hard drive failure or other hardware malfunction, you can access your files on the cloud. It acts as a backup solution for your local storage on physical drives.”
VoIP
According to RingCentral, VoIP can cost up to 68% less than traditional phone lines. Traditional on-premise phone systems leave you tethered to your physical location, whereas a VoIP platform can be accessed anywhere you can connect to the internet. This provides greater flexibility and ensures continuity of communications in the event of a disaster.
Video Conferencing
“Video conferencing boosts productivity, saves time, reduces travel expenses, and overall promotes collaboration. The advantage of video conferencing is the ability to facilitate all of those benefits without requiring constant travel for face-to-face communication.”
Instant Messaging
“Instant messaging allows companies to conduct meetings, create presentations, and send and receive applications online without the need to travel to other office locations. The technology also allows users to make corrections in documents and spreadsheets instantly, saving in printing and distribution costs.”
Document Sharing
“One of the main advantages of online file storage and sharing is that collaboration is smooth. You can share files instantly, access information quickly, and avoid any unnecessary delays. That’s not all; you can work from anywhere and collaborate in real time with people in any part of the world.”
Marketing Automation
“The best marketing teams use marketing automation to make their campaigns more accurate and to empower their sales team with better leads, and achieve greater ROI. Using marketing automation, marketers are better able to qualify leads and pass them onto sales, resulting in higher revenue and greater growth.”
