User profiles in Virola Corporate Messenger

For large corporations it is important to let their employees easily access the information about their co-workers, especially if they need to find and get in touch with their colleagues.

More and more employees start working remotely today and the only way to stay in touch with their co-workers is to use the company corporate messenger. Thus, the availability of detailed user profiles will streamline the working process and will let employees easily find each other within the corporate network. Virola business messenger allows creating detailed user profiles which contain the following information:
