Due to the current Covid-19 situation, the public has to be aware on how to minimise the effects of the crisis, both as individuals and responsible companies. Umbrella Collective is supporting the stay at home movement, but realises it can lead to difficulties in everyday work life and communication with colleagues and clients alike.
The company has pledged to provide self-developed project management tools - at no cost - to everybody who needs it. The company has been developing and fine-tuning digital tools early on as it was 'certain' that remote working would play a key role in the future.
The tools are helping with internal daily operations with their team and the collaboration with clients from all over the world, such as DT, Viessmann, Splash Worldwide, AMV BBDO, Wavemaker (London, Germany, Budapest) - and it's not the first time they have helped in difficult times. Umbrella stood the test when the Covid-19 situation escalated: “All employees have been working from home for weeks, and have experienced no major challenges while doing so. Today, both the team and clients benefit from the streamlined workflow that Umbrella Collective’s digital tools make possible," said Miklos Kazmer, founder of Umbrella.
These softwares are available for everyone, and are easy to use and integrate with other tools. Namely:
Review: communication tool; is effective for reviewing and commenting on a video. No more misunderstandings from emails, no more unnecessary extra rounds.
Content Library: visual content management tool; allows you to repurpose existing assets, previously produced contents or create several outputs for a campaign. This is a cost effective way of communicating during times of crisis.
Timeline: a solution for effective remote production workflow.
You can gain access to the tools by emailing this address.
