Descripción

Although we have often said that technology is key to any business, there are other elements (not so technological) that are just as important. Steve Jobs had it very clear when he said: "in the business world, the important things are not done by one person. They are done by a group of people".

Whether you are self-employed, an entrepreneur or an SME, you will always need other people to make your business thrive. These can be employees, suppliers, and even customers, all of whom are necessary to ensure success. 

However, it can often be difficult to maintain good communication with so many people, some of whom are not even in the same location as us. This is where technology plays an essential role in making collaboration flow between all the parties involved.

At Acelera pyme, we are well aware of this. That's why, through the Kit Digital Programme, we offer you the possibility of implementing interactive and functional solutions in your company that allow the most efficient collaboration between your workers, clients and suppliers. We tell you more details below!

 

Why did collaboration solutions arise?

The origin of collaboration tools arises from the need to facilitate video conferencing and face-to-face meeting processes. For example, in the past, in order to hold a videoconference, a physical space was needed and a call centre had to be called to organise the meeting. Once the meeting started, a series of unforeseen events would arise, such as difficulties in sharing the presentation, poor connection in the video call, among others.

In this sense, collaboration tools seek to solve the above scenarios. With this type of technology, each user has their own virtual workspace where they can share documents, make video calls and presentations at any time and from anywhere, with partners, suppliers, clients and colleagues. And best of all, from any device!

Advantages of collaboration solutions implementation

Collaboration solutions can be the answer to increasing your company's productivity. Implementing them can bring you a host of benefits, such as, for example:

  • It makes it possible to connect with whoever you need to connect with, wherever and whenever you need to.
  • It reduces the costs involved in having to travel somewhere.
  • Improves the user experience of the people who use it, and therefore improves customer satisfaction.
  • Improves productivity and saves time spent on certain tasks by providing immediate access to information.
  • Streamlines decision-making processes.

 

Collaboration tools

In addition to some of the advantages of implementing collaborative solutions, here is a list of some of the tools that are currently on the market. If you are thinking of opting for any of them, our recommendation is that you go to the Kit Digital Agents so that they can advise you on the subject and assist you in the implementation process.

  • Google Docs Editors

It is a suite of Google applications that includes programmes for creating documents (Google Docs), spreadsheets (Google Sheets), presentations (Gslides), among others. They are free for users with a Google account and have a web version and mobile applications.

 

  • Microsoft 365

It is a Microsoft tool that operates in the cloud and allows access to work remotely on documents, sharing and editing files together with other collaborators. In addition, you can access documents, agendas and communicate with other people through instant messaging.

 

  • Slack

This application allows you to communicate with different people no matter where they are. As it is an instant messaging system, it facilitates collaboration and also integrates other tools such as Dropbox, Google Drive, MailChimp, among others.

 

  • Trello

It is a task manager designed to have the same function as the typical corkboard with post-its or blackboard. It consists of an online board that allows you to place, classify, review and exchange task cards according to their status.

 

Implement collaboration solutions in your business with the Kit Digital

Within the Virtual Office Services and Tools category of the Kit Digital Programme, you can request the service of a Digitalising Agent so that you can have a tool that allows you to collaborate and exchange information with your employees, partners, clients or suppliers.

The amount of the aid provided for this category is 250 € per user, and can be used by from 2 to 48 users, depending on the size of your company. This way, you will be able to configure and customise workflows, tasks and share any document.
