As the modern workforce becomes more globalised, video conferencing tools are becoming increasingly popular. Through video, companies can bring dispersed, remote and mobile workers together in an immersive cross-border environment. The face-to-face communication allows for better collaboration and stronger bonds between staff members. Video can even offer an alternative mode of communication for agents and customers, allowing for visual context in conversations.

Of course, to make the most out of this new trend, businesses need cameras that can capture rich, high-quality images. That’s where the Saber USB camera from Angekis comes in. Angekis is a video-focused company, known for delivering state-of-the-art cameras for the digital workforce.
