TOOLS FOR TROUBLING TIMES
CLOUD STORAGE - DROPBOX, ONEDRIVE, HELLOSIGN & GOOGLE DRIVE
Moving away from the office local area network is challenging,
but cloud storage and file-sharing software have made it
possible to securely maintain these “internal” channels outside
of the office.
Dropbox and OneDrive are
two popular and free cloud
storage services that can be
downloaded and accessed
through your computer
desktop. Your cloud storage is accessible from anywhere, so
team members can be given instant access to the files they
need while working from home. Any files added to the company
drive from your desktop will be automatically backed up and
synchronized with everyone that has access.
Dropbox is partnered with
HelloSign, an online service for
requesting and receiving legally binding signatures digitally.
The HelloSign service is integrated into the Dropbox software
where any unsigned contracts saved can be sent for signing at
the click of a button.
Google Drive also offers cloud
storage but with enhanced
opportunity for collaboration. Anyone with access to a Drive
folder may be given rights to upload and edit documents as
needed. Take advantage of this as an alternative to passing
reports around the office or working on a small project with 2
to 3 people.
Administrators can easily password protect or restrict access to
sensitive files at any time.
FILE SHARING - WETRANSFER
In most cases, file sharing is
done most efficiently via email.
Sometimes files are too large to send over a private server,
which is where this online file-sharing tool comes in handy.
WeTransfer is the most widely used file-sharing tool in the
world. This software-as-a-service makes it easy to transmit
large files for free using its dedicated servers. Anyone can
transmit files of up to 2GB at a time for free, with larger
capacities available for paid accounts.
STAYING CONNECTED THROUGH PLAY - JACKBOX GAMES
Of course we can’t emphasize
enough the importance of
staying connected outside of
work and making time to have
fun together while you’re apart.
Jackbox Games is a digital “party games” service from the
creators of Quiplash, Fibbage, Trivia Murder Party, and more.
It’s a fun way to stay connected while keeping those strategic
thinking skills sharp.
The games are available on almost every platform, meaning
your team can get away from the computer and play from their
phone or video gaming console if they like. Each party pack
comes with a variety of games that promise hours of laughs.
