ivCAMPUS für Microsoft Teams als Alternative zu bnear
It was not until the end of 2022 that Microsoft opened up its technology so that SaaS apps could also be developed for Microsoft Teams. bnear, like ivicos, took the opportunity to develop a virtual office for Microsoft Teams and bnear has since been bought by a development company that specializes in Microsoft products.
bnear has shown that there is great interest in a virtual office solution for Microsoft Teams. However, the ratings in the Microsoft Store are not particularly good. Either there is a need for improvement here or the concept of floor plans may not be well received by users in the long term.
ivCampus with the better concept - no floor plan
The idea of moving people virtually on floor plans or elvators is one step too many towards digitalization.
It is neither important nor particularly helpful. Instead, it increases the planning and implementation effort - as is the case with bnear.ivCAMPUS, on the other hand, is designed for effective, human-centered collaboration.
There are no unnecessary avatar movements or elements that occupy your screen and distract you from your work. The aim of ivCAMPUS is to enhance interactions from the physical office and not simply transfer them to the virtual space.
A place - not a tool
The ivCAMPUS is the new place where everything happens. Finally, all colleagues are close together again and can no longer be reached only by 'calls'.
ivCAMPUS can be adapted to organizational structures and corporate design as required and very easily. With the help of areas, you can divide your organization into units, e.g. locations or departments.
ivCAMPUS supports you every step of the way, no matter how you decide to organize your team.
Especially for organizations, not just small teams
ivCAMPUS is the only secure, GDPR-compliant virtual office platform that combines spontaneous social interaction, efficient collaboration, full adaptability to corporate structures.
ivCAMPUS adapts to your organization, no matter how large and complex it is, and offers cross-company collaboration with just a few clicks. You create as many locations as you like (at no extra cost) and move easily from location to location.
