What are the challenges of working remotely?

Many people have the impression about remote work that it creates an obstacle to completing job-related mini tasks. Some of the obstacles do make sense, like: "Did I get the right password?" or, "Did I invite my remote team member to the shared document that I am supposed to?"

"Can the tech support solve all the problems relevant to remote work?" or, "Was there a technical error or glitch that dropped my client from the virtual meeting?"

Solution

Both the employees that working remotely and their managers need to get trained and re-trained on the usage of technologies that are required for remote work. The hurdles will reduce dramatically once the employers and their employees have the proper skills to share virtual documents and other resources. 


That won't stop to just emails- employees can pass files through other cloud-based services like Google Docs, Spreadsheet, or Dropbox within seconds and let managers see the state of work at any given time. When arranging meetings with remote participants, using software to record the whole conversation will also come in handy for future references. It will help the other employees who might miss the call or might be unavailable due to fieldwork, and they can watch it to take necessary notes for work.


Team members actively working remotely can perform better by utilizing CloudDesk® remote employee monitoring software. It helps them to keep track of work hours and check performance levels by checking productivity and idle times. 


The software also keeps them out of stress as they can take a rest whenever needed. It allows pausing the timeclock so that the users(employees) can get off the desk and attend personal activities. This way, employees will stay positive at work and thus produce good results throughout the day.
