CHICAGO, Aug. 18, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- UScellular is introducing a new Remote Workforce Solution to help businesses be more flexible, productive and secure. This solution delivers fast, reliable internet connections using the company's mobile network, unlimited phone plans and Microsoft Teams, one of the leading collaboration products on the market.

Since early 2020, the coronavirus pandemic drove many employees out of the office to work from remote locations. While some companies enabled their team members to stay productive, many others faced unreliable internet and few ways to collaborate - leaving them frustrated and unable to do their best work.

"There has been a huge change in the world that creates a major opportunity for businesses," said Kimberly Green-Kerr, senior vice president of enterprise sales and operations at UScellular. "Employee expectations have changed after working from home became a more normal work solution. They now expect to have the flexibility and ability to work remotely. They are increasingly choosing companies that offer remote work options and the tools to do it successfully."

The UScellular Remote Workforce Solution consists of three flexible components:

Remote Workforce Internet
Flexible packages range from a reliable, mobile option for small businesses to custom, highly secure solutions for enterprise-sized businesses with 5G and 4G access complete with enhanced security, content filtering and cloud management.

Collaboration Tools
Microsoft Teams gives you everything you need in one resource: video conferences, calls, chat and integration with familiar Office apps.

Unlimited Phone Plans
Unlimited plans with 5G and 4G LTE, including unlimited hotspot.

The Remote Workforce Solution is ideal for small, medium and enterprise-sized companies with higher risk exposure for remote employees who may have unsecured connections.

To help organizations deploy Microsoft Teams and realize the full potential of their Teams investment, UScellular is joining forces with OneNeck^® IT Solutions, an experienced Microsoft Cloud Solution Provider (CSP), to offer a complete Remote Workforce Collaboration solution that brings together chat, meetings and calling, all in one place. Additionally, OneNeck offers Teams Foundation services that help clients fully utilize Teams in their environment with design and implementation services based on best practices and hands-on consulting that drives adoption so users can collaborate anytime, anyplace and on any device.
