OnlineNow!

Contemporary technology allows us to be productive and connected whenever and wherever we choose, but not everybody knows how to put together an online platform for their organisation.

At EdintheClouds, we've been helping people with the move to online and cloud-based ways of working for over a decade, and our OnlineNow! programme is designed to take all of our expertise and help you get your people and processes online in the shortest possible timeframe.

Bringing together everything your people need in order to be up-to-date with the latest news and information, to access the resources and processes you provide to make their working life easier, and to navigate to the tools you want to encourage them to use, OnlineNow! is a one-stop, start-here, destination which your team will love.

What is 'OnlineNow!' ?

OnlineNow! is a platform providing you with the fastest-possible way of moving your operations online and giving your people web-based ways to communicate, collaborate, create and coordinate from anywhere, at any time and on any device.

What tools does OnlineNow! offer?

The OnlineNow! platform provides text, audio and video tools for communication, encourages collaborative working as the norm, offers online tools for producing work in any format and provides online storage that works the way you do.

COMMUNICATION
COLLABORATION
CONTENT-CREATION
COORDINATION

Communication

Text, voice and video tools are all provided as part of OnlineNow! Text tools cover traditional email as well as more contemporary text-based collaboration hubs and private social spaces. Audio can be used for communication, including comments and feedback. Video can be 1:1, 1-to-small group or class, livecast webinars for large events, all of which can be on-the-fly or scheduled and, if needed, recorded and/or transcribed.

Collaboration

Working in teams and with other people is the big difference people experience when moving to cloud-based ways of working. It's a shift, and change is hard, but at EdintheClouds we have years of experience in helping organisations with the cultural and leadership challenges which arise from this change. The tools we provide as part of our OnlineNow! package have collaboration as part of their DNA.

Content-creation

Anyone over the age of eleven is probably accustomed to thinking that traditional productivity tools (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Photoshop etc.) are necessary in order to be productive, and yet the reality is that none of those are essential in the modern workplace or classroom. More contemporary, nimble and accessible tools now exist to allow professional-quality work to be generated on any device, anytime and anywhere in the world, and OnlineNow features a full set of services, allowing users to be more productive with less effort.

Coordination

The ability to work on multiple devices and in any location means that we need a new model for deciding where things are stored and how they're organised. Cloud-based storage provides access to anyone from anywhere, and means that things are defined not so much by where they live as by who they're shared with. It's a different way of seeing the world, but a more efficient and productive one. OnlineNow! offers all the tools you need to organise your resources and ensure that the right people have access to the right material whenever they need it. And if your work involves learners, a virtual classroom handles the workflow of issuing work, getting it handed back in, marking, offering feedback and returning.

From Zero to online in record time!

OnlineNow! is intended to provide the fastest-possible route to online provision. Whether or not you've made a start in digitising your operations and materials, with this platform and our help, you can be up and running in days. We've been doing this for more than a decade: you can benefit from our experience.
