Virtual communication

Introduction

Virtual communication is the exchange of information between persons who are not physically present in the same room at the same time. Virtual communication involves the use of digital technologies such as emails, text messages, chats, and video conferences. A hybrid workforce refers to a situation in which some members of a team or the complete workforce of a corporation do their duties remotely either full or part time. 

Types of virtual communication tools

  • Hangouts 

Hangouts is a unified communications service that enables users to initiate and participate in text, phone, or video chats, either one-on-one or with a group of other users. These chats can take place either one-on-one or in a group setting. Google+ and Gmail both come equipped with Hangouts, and mobile apps for the service are available for download on iOS and Android smartphones.

Benefits of virtual communication

  • Save money

Virtual communication solutions are a low-cost way to significantly cut your operating costs. Allowing employees to work from home reduces your company’s costs for office space, equipment, and utilities. Remote meetings eliminate the costs of travel, housing, parking, and meals involved with traditional meetings…………
