# More companies in UK are now embracing Flexible working

Businesses that enable remote working do find that many employees are more productive when they don’t have to deal with rush-hour traffic, nosy colleagues or a noisy work environment. Embrace flexible working with VoIP. Gone are the days when you were expected to be in office all days of the week. Now more and more companies are giving 'work from anywhere' option to its employees.

## A VoIP phone service can help you save money and cut carbon emissions

Remote working does not mean that employees cannot attend meetings. In fact, regular meetings allow at-home workers to connect with their team and stay in touch. But these sessions don’t have to be in person.

With VoIP phone service, you can have virtual meetings with team members scattered across the world. No one has to travel anywhere which translates to less wasted time. Additionally, you can save on travel and hotel expenses. You can also organize webinars and learning sessions virtually.

By cutting down on commuting and meeting time, you can reduce the carbon footprint of your business. Enterprises are learning that customers are now eco-conscious. A company that tries to reduce its environmental impact will resonate with clients. Offering flexible working is actually good for business!

With VoIP there is no such thing as a fixed location. Once it has been set up, a phone can be moved to any location providing that location has an internet connection, and start receiving calls again once it's plugged in.

## Improve collaboration and teamwork

Many employers worry that allowing remote working will make it difficult for things to work together. Ironically, flexible working can help teams function better. That’s because the individual team members are happier and more productive.

You can also improve collaboration by cutting down on time wasted in weekly meetings. If all you need is to deliver a status update to the entire team, a quick virtual conference will do the job just as well. Employees don’t have to disrupt their work schedules to attend such meetings.

If your team is working in different countries, virtual meetings can bridge the gap between distances. It enables teams to meet more often than they otherwise would. A virtual face to face meeting can be more effective in bridging culture gaps than long emails. It can also close the communication gap.

So, if someone spends a large percentage of their day on the phone talking to customers, this

needn't be affected by working from home. All they need do is unplug their phone and take it

home with them and they will be able to carry out their duties as normal.

In advent of emergencies, like the outbreak of coronavirus in many countries, more companies are asking their workforce to work from home. VoIP helps you work from wherever, provided you have a reliable internet connection.

I would like to thank savincom for the hard work that they have done, they have managed to meet all our requirements and have delivered it in a timely fashion. They have reduced our monthly outgoings for our mobiles by a 1/5 of which we are very happy about.

 Maintenance Manager, Luxury Hotel Group

Since moving to Savincom, we have received excellent and responsive customer service, the small number of issues we have experienced have been resolved in an efficient and expert manner. We have significantly reduced our running costs, with the proactive account management, currently running a reduction of c.40% on costs, the cost reduction has been most prevalent around roaming and international calling. The transfer from Vodafone Direct to Savincom Vodafone was smooth and seamless, with onsite support offered during the days of the transfer. If I was to score them out of 10, it would be 10 as the have excelled as a service partner.

 Office Manager, Leading Global Commodity Merchant

We have worked with Savin Communications for four years now and we are delighted with the work carried out so far.  We have 300+ connections, so service needs to be of the highest quality, which is what we get with Savin Communications. We have a rapid staff turnover and Savin assist us when utilising connections. We used to be on a plan where we were constantly going over minutes and data allowances. Savin Communications has helped us source a much better quality plan and they understand the high standards that our organisation have and are most efficient in delivering well within time limits…. The account manager is always easy to contact and help is really appreciated, meetings with him are regular. The assistance and support we receive is always   
 responsive, proactive and excellent at all times. The advice given is easy to understand along with their online portal which is easy to use too, communicated in a friendly accessible manner. I would highly recommend Savin Communications.

 ICT Manager, National Charity

Having paid overly expensive mobile phone bills for several years, we switched to Savincom who assured us of substantial savings, especially for our mobile phone usage abroad. They were not wrong! Our bills have practically halved since the switch and furthermore Savincom provide a great support service, with any queries or problems being acknowledged and dealt with swiftly and professionally.

 Finance Manager, Global Shipping Company

I can confirm that we switched over our account from a direct one held with one of the Networks, to one under Savincom’s control and have been more than happy with the service thus far. As a Canadian Investment Bank with frequent overseas travellers, I found doing business direct with the Network over the past few years and my numerous dedicated account managers very frustrating indeed. Wrong price plans, outdated tariffs, changes of Account Managers, limited cover on the weekend support desk, and bolt -on’s not being applied to our overseas travellers etc. We are seeing benefits in not having to deal with the Network directly. I would be happy to recommend them in terms of the mobile contract that they proposed and especially their customer service.

 Operations Manager, Investment Bank

Since using Savincom our bills have noticeably decreased and every possible bundle is being added and removed when necessary. The service levels are a world away from what we experienced previously; I get a response back from their support team in at least 5 minutes, and everyone is extremely helpful. The account management is makes a big difference as well. Everything is straightforward and I can request information on our account and be sent a detailed report. I would highly recommend Savincom.

 Office Manager, Investment Company

I have used Savin for the last 4 years and their customer service, support, timescale to response and resolve any queries etc. has been first class! I am the IT Manager for a large construction based Group and as you can appreciate we have a large number of guys based on construction sites who break their phone frequently (and lose them!) so I require a swift service to replace phones and sims, bar phone lines and order new lines (either phone or 4G dongles) ASAP, all of which Savin deliver! So I would recommend Savin without hesitating!

 IT Manager, Construction Group

The highlight for me is being able to shoot an email to Savincom support and almost   
 immediately getting an engaging response, they want to solve my problems rather   
 than assign blame to someone. Overall we are very pleased to be working with a great team.

 IT Manager, Private Equity

Savincom are my righthand. I just phone and everything gets dealt with – no more long maddening calls to mobile providers. Thank you Savincom. You guys rock!

 Andrea Sequeira

Not only have our monthly bills been cut by more than half, savincom saved hours of my time spent on the phone to network direct customer support lines.

 Sujin Bailey

Having had our mobile phone contracts managed by savincom has saved the company considerable time and administrative effort.
