Collaborative Tool

Collaborative tools enable skill synergies, effective teamwork, increased productivity, and faster resolution of common goals.Book a Demo

Operational difficulties often arise from the number of communication channels required to track tasks. Emails, phone calls, SMS, and other spreadsheets create chaos and confusion for teamwork.

Collaborative tools provide a common visibility of work to be done among several people. In particular, a collaborative ticketing tool brings order and simplifies exchanges between service requesters and the agents who will provide these services.

Concretely, a collaborative software for ticketing allows tasks to be treated as a group conversation. With a collaborative tool, an organization can involve team leaders, agents, and requesters in a single task to be tracked. Each user has access according to their needs.

Collaborative tools synchronize teams with a common goal: to resolve tasks in the same place. A collaborative solution provides time savings and reliability in tracking processes and documents.

Advantages of a Collaborative Application

A Common Interface Based on Group Conversations

Each request includes the location, service category, requester's name, description, and possibly attachments, allowing agents to be more precise and efficient in responding to needs.

Shared and Easily Accessible Documents

Each user sees what concerns them according to their role, and team leaders can easily consult multi-site and multi-service data.

Increased User Satisfaction

  • When a person requests a service, there is an implicit expectation of being informed of what is happening. This is the case with Urbest, which allows agents to inform users of progress at any time. Urbest requesters have easy access to the application with a QR code or mobile app, making it pleasant to use.
  • The time savings for agents is also felt by customers who see their requests resolved at least twice as fast, increasing customer satisfaction.
  • Smooth and Real-time Collaborative Work

    Teams save precious minutes by using Urbest thanks to mobility, quick access to photos, WhatsApp-style messaging with real-time communication, and automated reporting. Information flows faster and with instantly updated information.

    Personalized Notifications and Alerts

    Since the information on a collaborative platform is structured, users can receive alerts on what interests them and follow changes since their last login with a notification feed. No more requests for extraction and reporting, as information is now accessible at any time.

    Deployment of a Collaborative Ticketing Platform

    Deployment modalities are typically done in 2 meetings and continuous follow-up:
    1

    Definition of strategic scope and services

    An initial session with the management team to understand the request processing processes. This meeting allows for the definition of a category menu and the identification of agents or companies that will handle the services.
    2

    Training of key users

    A second training session for the various teams and technical agents.
    3

    Communication to users

    The third step involves launching communication to users who will make requests.
    4

    Continuous improvement

    Ongoing support and assistance throughout use with customer engagement tracking.

    FAQ

    What are collaborative tools?

    Collaborative tools can be very diverse, ranging from work documents (presentations, documents, videos) to task management (Urbest, Trello, Asana), medical appointments (Doctolib), and group discussions (WhatsApp, Telegram). Ultimately, there are collaborative solutions for every type of need and industry: video, tasks, documents, etc. Enterprise collaborative solutions typically operate within 'organizations' or 'workspaces' that allow companies to have dedicated spaces for their employees and users.

    What are the advantages of collaborative work?

    Collaborative work saves time by always having a single version to work on (1. Document sharing). This can be a written document, a presentation, a video edit, or a task to be completed. The advantages are numerous: the possibility of shared comments (2. Real-time communication) and thus the same level of information for everyone (3. Instant updates). Documents are in the cloud (4. File storage and management) This avoids losing modifications when someone makes changes on their own (5. Version control). It allows new people to be included quickly and all relevant information to be shared directly. Finally, most collaborative tools have personalized notification systems that inform the right people at the right time (6. Notifications and alerts)

    How to define collaborative work?

    Collaborative work involves working together on the same work support to achieve a common goal. Collaborative work can be on a collaborative written document (Google Doc), a medical appointment (Doctolib), a task to be done (Urbest), or a group discussion (WhatsApp). It requires at least two people and a common interface between them. Collaborative work requires open communication, coordination, shared responsibility, and flexibility.

    How to develop collaborative work?

    First, you need to overcome the fear of sharing your work. Often, people are afraid of others seeing their work in progress. Collaborative work needs transparency to be effective. Second, it's helpful to have at least one person who is comfortable with administering a collaborative software to understand and manage access for different people. Finally, you need to communicate about the existence of the collaborative tool so that a large number of people can use it.
