The challenges and requirements of
the modern workplace are bringing about the need for new business communications solutions. Today, knowledge workers are likely to be spread among di erent locations, with many working remotely from
a home o ce or frequently on the road and
not necessarily even working within the same organization. New team collaboration tools
are emerging as an e ective way for dispersed business colleagues to communicate, collaborate and manage projects.
by Rob Bellmar, EVP, Business Operations at West’s Unified Communications Services (www.westuc.com)
2016 was another year of rapid growth and transformation in the uni ed communications and collaboration
technology industries. As organizations continue to migrate to the Cloud, team collaboration apps like Slack, Cisco Spark
and Facebook at Work have splashed onto
the scene. ese new UC tools are forcing business leaders and IT to re-examine how their workforce collaborates across various platforms in order to determine which tools from an overly saturated market to implement.
