Workforce Connect from Zebra Technologies is an enterprise push-to-talk app which can help to boost efficiency, productivity and safety across the whole business. Push-to-talk communication allows colleagues to communicate faster and clearer – it removes the unnecessary time it takes to make phone calls, allows teams to communicate on a wider scale rather than just one-to-one, and can connect teams both inside and outside the organisation’s four walls.

Many businesses rely on smart devices for vital everyday functions like scanning, data management and job ticketing, so Workforce Connect is an easy way to bolt push-to-talk communication onto existing infrastructure. The fewer devices a worker has to carry, the more efficiently they can carry out their job – Workforce Connect allows workers to do it all from their chosen device which could be a smartphone, tablet, PDA or Windows PC.

All your contacts, easily accessible
Access every team member in your contact list, see who is online and create ad-hoc talk groups on-the-go depending on who you need to talk to or who is in a certain location.

Group communication made easy
It’s easier than ever for individual teams or groups to have instant, efficient communication on-the-go. Set the right contacts up in the right groups so that communication is always available between the right people – no more ringing around every contact!

Your colleagues’ location in real-time
See where your team members are in real-time, and communicate instantly with either a contact or ad-hoc group based on their geographical location.

Your favourite contacts just one touch away
You always have certain colleagues who you speak to more frequently than others. To save you scrolling through endless contacts lists every time, simply mark your favourite contacts with a “star” so they are only ever one touch away.

Replay recent push-to-talk messages
If you’re using Workforce Connect on an Android device, you can playback voice messages with each of your recent contacts. It also removes the gaps between PTT messages when they are played back, so you can catch up as quickly as possible.

Easy managing and monitoring of your teams
Workforce Connect is managed via an online portal where you can manage every aspect of your team’s setup. From broad changes like a group name to granular details like which options appear for individual users, any changes made on the portal are sent instantly to each device over-the-air.
