Best Collaborative and Organizational Tools for Remote Teams
What does collaboration look like in business?
Is it your team together in a room, drawing all over a whiteboard, talking back and forth to solve a problem? Or presenting new ideas, meeting with different departments, or getting feedback from the desk next door?
Whether your business is working remotely due to Covid-19 concerns or you’re set up remote teams regularly, collaboration looks a little different.

Now with Covid-19 changing the face of our everyday lives, we are seeing how virtual offices have proved to be beneficial under unpredictable climates, as well as regular climates.
