Product Update

One of the biggest concerns among managers is ensuring all team members remain productive while working remotely. We have dedicated this last month on adding features that help managers track productivity of individual employees and overall productivity of the team. Here’s all about what’s new on UnRemot.

What’s new on UnRemot?

1. Productivity reports

One of the reasons why most managers are hesitant about remote working is the lack of visibility. How do they know if their team members are working? Remote working in by nature demands the managers and employers to trust in their employees. But this doesn’t have to mean that they remain completely clueless about the minimum time an employee spends productively.

Keeping this in mind, we’ve added the productivity report feature that helps both employers and employees track team and individual productivity. This feature doubles also as an attendance report to add some visibility for the employers.

Here’s a list of things you can check using Productivity Report:

• Managers can track the daily check-in & check-out time of the individuals
• Managers can check daily productivity and average productivity of the individuals
• Managers can track the above on a weekly and monthly basis
• Individuals can check their check-in & check-out time
• Individuals can track their daily and average productivity.

2. Console to manage team

Our next feature update has improved the UX for managing teams on UnRemot virtual office.

The team managers/admins can now quickly access the top panel in the virtual office to:

• Add new team members
• Rename the team
• Delete the team

What’s next on UnRemot?

Here’s a quick glimpse of what the next Product update will include.

• Remote job listings
• Integration with Calendar
• File sharing
• Google Drive integration

More on these amazing features in the next update. Stay connected!

Things have changed since we launched UnRemot 15 days ago. After closing as the #4 product of the day on Product Hunt, getting 270+ upvotes and 100+ user signups, and plenty of feedback from amazing users, we’ve experienced a major boost within the team. And so, we’ve been working harder to roll out new features and UI improvements in the last couple of weeks.

Here’s a quick view of all the new features on UnRemot

1. Tile-based participant view for video sessions
2. New full-screen view for both participants and screen share
3. Revamped control panel for the meeting rooms

1. Tile-based participant view for video sessions

One of the biggest problems we’ve been trying to solve is how we facilitate simple and hassle-free video communication among teams with 5+ members. We’ve figured that one of the simplest ways to solve it would be to create a tile-based participant view during the video sessions. This new feature will allow you to view all your team members and their screens in a tile format.

2. New full-screen view for both participants and screen share

Next, during one-on-one or group interactions within your team, you will be able to choose any screen – participant video or Screen video and enlarge it to full screen.

3. Revamped control panel for the meeting rooms

Finally, we’ve redone the control panel of the meeting rooms. The latest additions make it easier for you to 

• Add or remote participants to a meeting room
• Mute or unmute a participant
• Give Organizer access to another participant
• Get notifications if someone tries to connect to you while you are on a different video session

Attention, Remoters! The remote working tool of the future has arrived. UnRemot – A video-based online platform is all set to welcome its first users to experience sleek remote collaboration. That’s right, We have launched! (First of many). We’ve understood that communication is the key to effective remote collaboration and there is a need for a simple and efficient remote working tool. So, we’ve built a platform that virtually creates an office-like environment where speaking to your teammate is a shoulder-tap away.

Watch Video: You can do so much on UnRemot 

Now, What is UnRemot?

UnRemot is an easy-to-use online platform that creates a virtual office environment where one-on-one and group communications & collaborations are hassle-free. With UnRemot, users can enjoy all the benefits of working remotely including skipping the pain of going through daily commute and collaborate seamlessly with their team from wherever they want. Organizations that use UnRemot can reap benefits like saving big money on real estate and opening themselves up to global talent pool, WHILE not compromising on visibility.

What are the key features of UnRemot?

UnRemot packs up all things necessary for remote workers to communicate and collaborate more efficiently. Taking into account the uncertainty that managers face when their teammates work from home, we’ve created UnRemot to improve visibility and cull the fear of low productivity. With a simple video-based interface, UnRemot brings all the team members closer and facilitates seamless interaction to ensure the physical distance between them doesn’t reflect in their work. Here’s a complete list of all things you can do on UnRemot:

1. One-to-one single click videos
2. Single click videos among small teams
3. Screen sharing on single clicks
4. Individual & group chat with the team
5. Tasks management, associated with both team and individuals
6. Single integration to mail, calendar, project management tools etc

But just having all your teammates a click away wouldn’t ensure your productivity. UnRemot goes beyond by integrating features like single-click screen sharing, task management and tracking at individual and group levels, and integrations to mails, calenders etc.

Why do you need UnRemot?

One look at the statistics and it would appear to you instantly that Remote work is the future and it isn’t far. According to an analysis, remote work has grown a whopping 44% just over the last 5 years. More and more employees are realising the benefits of remote working and are changing the norms of what is considered an effective workplace.

While the employees are switching to remote for reasons like avoiding traffic, being location independent, feeling less stressed, and experiencing a better work-life balance; organizations and the management are facing a dilemma. There is an obvious increase in productivity from remote employees but the physical unavailability of the team members leaves managers feeling sceptical. This is where UnRemot comes into the picture.

We’d Love To Hear Your Opinion!

If you aren’t already convinced that this is the best remote working tool the world has been missing, then we invite you to try it for free for a month. We’d love to hear what you’ll have to say about UnRemot at the end of one month.

Like we indicated earlier, this is our first of many launches. Over the next 12 months, we plan to launch multiple times, integrating new features and making tweaks based on the responses and suggestions from our users. Some of the features that will be added by the next launch include:

• One-to-one & group chats
• Screen sharing among groups
• An Improved UI
