Today,
almost all organisations which have the option of remaining operational
“remotely” have either already started or are in the process of working remotely.
While, working from home has been an option for the many of us, no one could
have imagined the scale at which it is happening today. But as we accept this
new way of working, managing productivity and achievement is a daunting task.
Last friday,
as a humble contribution from our end to keep India Inc productive from home,
we offered Zippi, our intelligent platform that helps in executing plans faster
for free. Over 200,000+ are already leveraging the power of zippi to manage
productivity for their teams and here are favourite five features which are
helping them do so!

- Connecting key results with daily tasks: While a no-brainer, in most organizations the objective and outcomes for individuals are not clearly defined. In many cases while the big picture is set, how one’s daily tasks contribute to the big picture is often missing. This ambiguity often results in a workforce that needs constant monitoring and is not empowered to work. With Zippi, this connectivity from the big picture (objectives) to daily tasks is very simple, and no just that, it is super easy to track progress while on the go!
- Communicate & Engage: Collaboration cannot exist with right kind of communication. It’s even more important in the current times, when the team is not physically present in centralised locations. While there are many consumer products available which might provide mechanism to connect with teams, the fact that these systems are designed for certain set of audiences only, keeps their adoption limited. On top of it, security remains a big concern. Zippi solves this problem by consumer-grade usability and military-grade security. While you can share any information in multiple formats securely, with polls, recognition and system generated groups its simple to communicate, celebrate and collaborate.
- Encourage meaningful and contextual conversations: When you are working remotely, a lot gets lost when many conversations happen at the same time. How do you compensate for that? Zippi does it with multi-level threaded conversations and twitter styled hashtags in that help keep a tab on a trending set of conversation. It’s easier to understand where the conversation started, who said what, and what are the asks out of that conversation.
- Get it done with AI: Has this ever happened with you, where a task was assigned, but nothing really happened on it. Tracking of tasks and their progress can become a real challenge in productivity even when you are working from a single location but more so when your teams are operating remotely. While following a schedule of daily stand ups helps but nothing works better than being reminded at the right time. Be it a meeting, or a task that you are lagging on, Zippi nudges its users to be more productive with actionable insights and ready access to important information they might need.
Remote work can seem overwhelming, especially if it’s not embedded in the organizational culture. But with right tools in place, working remotely might not be as challenging. By moving outside of your comfort zones, you might explore new ways to collaborate, problem-solve and grow –and taste the #NewCodeofWork.
