However, it still remains difficult to decide what constitutes a good digital office.
The goal with setting up such a workplace is to organize the workflow in a way that still has all the features of a traditional office, but doesn’t require the employees to actually meet, or at least, they can do it rather infrequently. Besides that, working online creates a lot of new security issues that need to be addressed.
Management
Virtual offices need management teams the same way traditional offices do. It’s important to have someone in the leader position, who is able to organize such a workplace and to keep all the moving parts together.
Also, if you’re setting up a digital workplace for the first time, those who will manage it in the years to come should be involved in setting the systems up. That will make their future job easier, and the transition from a traditional office will also go much more smoothly.
Scalable Workplace
Modern companies tend to grow pretty fast and that sometimes requires them to hire new employees right away. It’s also important to note that there are more ways to be employed than it was just a few years ago.
Many companies tend to outsource a part of their workflow, while still employing a part of the workforce in a traditional way.
The digital office should reflect this fact. First of all, it needs to have the infrastructure to support the influx of new employees.
Secondly, it’s important for the digital infrastructure to notice and support the security differences between traditional employees and outsourced ones.
An Actual Office
Even when most of your office work is done digitally, there’s still a need for the traditional office to be maintained in case you need it. When you’re renting such an office, it’s important to have in mind that it will be mostly used to be presentable to clients, but it still needs to be usable for actual work as well.
Consider renting a serviced office even if you don’t plan to use it every day. It will complement the digital office you have and often improve it, especially when you need to conduct interviews and meet with clients.
Customer Service
Customer services need to be clearly linked with the rest of your digital ecosystem. It’s also an important marketing feature because customer services are how most your customers interact with the business. Make sure that the customers are able to reach you at all times via mobile device.

That will provide your employee with the stream of data coming from the customers directly. This, in turn, can make your marketing efforts and the business in general more approachable and better suited to the needs of the customers. Every change you make in the digital setup of the office should also be reflected in the digital customer support as well.
A good digital workplace is the one that makes your company better organized and less wasteful. It should also be organized in a way that makes it easy for the whole business to expand and take in new employees and new clients.
