Communications Tools Comparison Chart
Compare the communication tools and technology options to consider when building a strategy.Â

Communication channels and tools are a huge component of a deskless employee communication strategy. One of the biggest mistakes that organizations make is assuming they can share information with these workforces in the same way they would communicate with office or deskbound employees. Frontline workers require a much different approach to ensure that information is being shared when and where they need it.Â
But what tools and channels are right for your organization? Our communication tool comparison chart will help you weigh your options. This chart outlines the top nine communication tool types, complete with pros and cons for each.Â

Solving the Labor Crisis
Solving the labor crisis
How to tap into your current workforce and be an employer of choice.

With vaccination rates increasing, restaurants are starting to return to a semblance of normal operations. But as The Great Return continues, a new challenge emerges: finding workers. Employment subsidies, burnout, return trepidation, and competition across the labor market are coming together to annihilate the restaurant talent pool.
It’s time to flip the script. This webinar shows restaurateurs why they need to forget about those long-unrequited dreams of full labor capacity – and instead focus on tapping the (perhaps unchecked) potential of their current workforce through better engagement, empowerment and communication.
Listen as Brennan Wilkie, CRO at Nudge, the digital employee communications platform, and Michael Fiato, SVP of Guest Experience at Eurest and author of The Hospitality Edge: Stories to Delight Your Guests, Spark Your Culture and Ignite Productivity, discuss the talent pool, the employee experience, and staying agile and responsive in changing times.

Acing the Great Return
Acing the Great Return
 Fostering next-level CX in uncertain times through better staff communication.

Now more than ever, retailers are looking to stay profitable and resilient by elevating the all-important customer experience. But in these uncertain times, so much change in the physical retail space has made it difficult to focus on meaningful – and consistent – customer interactions, not to mention bridging the gap between physical and digital experiences.
The secret to nailing the Great Return? Investing in your frontline communications and feedback loop. Your associates have a critical role to play in enhancing the customer experience – and helping your organization stay agile and responsive by tapping into your consumers’ expectations, attitudes, and behaviors.
Learn from Rachel Huckle, the Chief Retail Officer at Staples Canada and Nudge’s COO, Jordan Ekers on how you can help your organization stay agile and responsive in uncertain times by fostering next-level CX.
