Empower Remote Employees with a Connected Digital Workplace

An intranet for remote employees is a secure, digital workspace that helps your team stay connected, informed and productive – from anywhere.

Without the right tools, remote staff often miss out on important updates, struggle to find the information they need, and feel disconnected from their colleagues. This can impact morale, productivity and retention.

Whether your teams are working from home, in regional offices or on the frontline, Elcom gives them a single mobile-ready intranet to access news, documents, tools and updates, all in one place.
