Technology Solution Provider Offers Integration and Support for Revolutionary Platform to Small, Enterprise Businesses

RONKONKOMA, NY, OCTOBER 15, 2019 – What if your employees, partners and customers could communicate, collaborate and connect just as easily as your friends and family post news, plan events and share milestones today? That’s the idea behind Workplace by Facebook, a revolutionary business platform that uses familiar features like groups, chat and video calls to get work done in a secure enterprise environment. Island Tech Services (ITS) (www.itsg.us.com), a leading provider of advanced technology, mobility and vehicle solutions, has become a premier Workplace by Facebook partner, integrating this powerful collaboration tool for its business customers looking to simplify often complex business tasks.

“As a premier integration partner for the Workplace by Facebook platform, ITS can guide executive and IT teams with adoption, employee on-boarding and utilization so they can realize the greatest benefits for their organizations,” says Robert Gronenthal, ITS CEO and Partner. “Collaborative tools often require extensive training, but half the world population uses Facebook, making Workplace a friendly and familiar interface.”

Today’s Collaboration Climate

Businesses today struggle with information overload, so much so that often critical communications get lost or go ignored. To meet the increasing need for stronger and more collaborative work environments, while reducing information overload, the Workplace by Facebook platform provides familiar tools that workers can use to quickly connect to share documents and project information.

Workplace by Facebook offers many tools – that usually require multiple applications – all in the same easy-to-use interface. Here are a few of the tasks that businesses can accomplish:

  • Share important information via News Feed to break down organizational silos
  • Get real-time feedback via likes, comments and reactions
  • Automatically add team members into relevant or company-wide groups
  • Use Live Video for more immediate, direct and authentic sharing
  • Create polls to get a quick pulse on company issues
  • Use Workplace Chat bots to make payroll, benefits or onboarding processes quicker and easier
  • Connect new hires to the team (and each other) using Multi-Company Groups
  • Run polls in Groups to get a quick pulse on company issues
  • Connect new hires to the team (and each other) using Multi-Company Groups
  • Get real-time responses in Workplace Chat

Simple but Incredibly Secure

Since this is a collaborative tool built for business, Workplace by Facebook enables companies to create a community where security comes first. Businesses own their data and control its privacy. And to ensure the highest level of security, Workplace undergoes annual verification audits and has achieved certification against ISO27001, ISO27018, SOC2, SOC3 global standards. The platform also adheres to the EU-US and Swiss-US Privacy Shield Frameworks and is GDPR compliant.
