Meeting provider PowWowNow has extended the free trial of its services from 14 to 60 days to help employees work from home and stay productive during the spread of coronavirus.

As the number of cases of coronavirus rises globally, businesses are moving to reconsider policies and act to keep employees safe. Cutting down office hours is proving a widespread move, aimed at lowering the risk of infection on packed trains and air conditioned offices.

However, many businesses might not have the technology or processes in place for a smooth transition to flexible working. PowWowNow’s extended free trial aims to empower businesses and employees to retain effective communication when working away from the office.

Users can connect with colleagues, be present in meetings and discuss tasks remotely via PowWowNow’s suite of technology products which includes web meetings, video and conference calling.
