Do you have App Overload?

Have you ever had one of those days where you feel like your inbox is staging a coup against your productivity? Don’t worry, you are not alone! In fact, a recent study has revealed that 80% of our communications are still happening via email.

Yes, despite all of the apps, chat services, and digital tools we have at our disposal, we are still stuck in our old ways, sifting through a massive pile of emails! The study also found that employees are wasting precious hours navigating through a maze of apps. Imagine this: Your employee is about to send an important report but gets lost between Slack, Teams, Google Docs and a dozen other tools. Not fun!

What about video conferencing? You might think that is better right? Unfortunately not. Sure it gives us the illusion of being productive, but the truth is, most employees find only three in fie meetings genuinely valuable. The rest? Unproductive.

Let us not forget about the constant need to repeat or clarify ourselves. About 74% of workers are having to repeat themselves some of the time, with almost a quarter saying this happens often. It is enough to make you want to scream into the void isn’t it?!

So, what is the solution?

It is time to take a step back and rethink your digital strategy.

Instead of piling on more apps and tools, why not work with a technology strategist who can help you create a plan that makes sense for your business? Think of it as a new year declutter of your digital workspace!
