4 In recent days, many countries are still in a complete lock down and have not yet reached the peak of the pandemic, whilst other countries affected with the initial wave, are carefully opening up again, like China, Austria and, very cauti- ously Germany. There will be a life after Corona and business will come back, without a doubt. However the pandemic will leave its mark on all areas of private and business life, for a very long time after society has reopened again and living in a “New Normality“. The current lock down being a reality in almost every country across the globe, makes a big push for digitizati- on. Companies who have already provided the essential infrastructure for employees to work from home had one thing less to worry about. In these difficult times, tools for online meetings play an essential role, for private and business life alike, and they will in the future. On the business side, they will replace face-to-face meetings, classroom training and business travel. Tools for remote communication have become vital for every organization and we are sure this will not revert following on from this pandemic. To manage remote staff and mobile workforces has always been a challenge. A long time before the Corona virus, ISGUS realized the trend towards “NewWork“ and made available a whole range of tools to efficiently manage remote work and mobile workforces.
