We’re happy to announce that Rocket.Chat, the leading open-source communication hub, was named to the Constellation ShortList™ for Enterprise Group Messaging in Q3 2020. The technology vendors and service providers included in this program deliver critical transformation initiative requirements for the early adopters and fast follower organizations.
In 2016, the financial institution used to have different communication channels to support its 100M+ customers: Skype for video calls, a mobile app, website, phone, to name a few. Having so many complex tools around is more of a hassle than a solution. Here’s why.
Working from home is a comparatively new trend that started to gather momentum with the advent of digital technologies. The previous five years saw a 44% surge in remote employment, which is explained by two major factors. The first is the growing mobility of the workforce, 40% of which are expected to go exceedingly mobile globally by 2022. In the developed countries, this ratio is likely to reach the astounding three-fourths. No less fundamental is the impact of COVID-19.
Team collaboration serves customers holistically. So customers become loyal. Businesses that get it will enjoy loyal customers while others struggle. In one study, 86 percent of business executives said that lack of collaboration or poor communication causes workplace failure. Employees agree more. In that study, 97 percent of employees say that lack of team alignment impacts goals and projects negatively. It doesn’t matter if you aim to win more loyal customers or double your revenue.
Messaging has the highest customer satisfaction score of any support channel, with a CSAT of 98 percent. It makes sense: messaging is fast, personal, secure, and asynchronous—in other words; customers can pick the conversation up at their own convenience, without losing the conversation history. But providing the seamless conversational interactions customers expect requires more than simply offering messaging channels. It starts with choosing the right messaging partner.

Remote teams are not new. However, they have been in the minority in most industries until recently. But due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, remote working has become the norm for millions of people across the United States and all over the world. This new status quo looks to continue for the foreseeable future. Remote working has its benefits, but also comes with a unique set of challenges. In particular, working from home can be isolating, and people can struggle with productivity.
