Tracking All-Business Information in Raleigh

Posted by Courtney Wachob | Aug 8, 2013 7:40:00 AM

Raleigh, North Carolina is a bustling town full of growing businesses, many with multiple locations in and around the city. That means, of course, that there are multiple things to manage as well – multiple sites, multiple buildings, multiples employees, etc. All of these aspects need to be kept in sync and up to date so that a business can reach its maximum potential.

describe the imageEmails can work for this purpose, but they don't always reach their intended audience. Employees usually have a long list of unopened emails; the chances of another being lost in the shuffle are very high. Inter-office memos can pose the same issue, and phone calls are highly impractical. What businesses need is a streamlined method of communicating – keeping employees, departments, sites, and buildings in the loop.

Many companies are turning to a cloud based system to achieve this end. A cloud based system allows any employee within a company to input data into a company computer. Then, not only is the data automatically available to every person in the company, it’s also organized and much easier to find than conventional emails or printed memos.

A cloud based system is easy to use but does take time to learn. If you’re a business in Raleigh, NC, however, you have an advantage: Oates & Company.
