How long do you spend each day managing messages, phone calls and meetings? Do you need to juggle a dozen different apps just to communicate with your colleagues? Workspace can simplify communication with your colleagues. Workspace is a workstream collaboration solution that allows you to communicate securely through instant messaging, phone calls, and audio/video conferencing. The advantages of using Workspace are: - Your phone number lives in the application, meaning you can make and receive calls in the app as if from your phone line. - Your colleagues are all gathered in one place. You can see their availability and decide whether a message or a call is the best way to communicate with them. - You can organize your teams or departments around βgroupsβ, and categorize your chatgroup discussions using βtopicsβ. - You can schedule or start audio and video meetings with colleagues or with external contacts. Meetings can be recorded, too. You can conduct unified communications searches and forward them to colleagues or workgroups. These searches can include the results of call or meeting notes, files, messages and even emails (requires connection to your email account)
