1. Virtual Office
For using a virtual office, you need some works; Create a New Workspace, App Download, Create Floor, and Invite Members.
Create a New Workspace
To use VoicePing's virtual office, please create a new workspace from "Try Free Version" on the top page of VoicePing. After completing the registration, the VoicePing application will be automatically downloaded to your PC. Install the application and start using it!
Create Office Floor
After creating the workspace, create the floor to which you want to assign members. You can add a floor unit by clicking on the "+" button in the upper right corner of the topmost floor unit in the name bar on the left.
Invite Team Members
There are three ways to invite people in your company to a VoicePing workspace.
- If you want to assign members to a project or group at the same time as the invitation and decide their permissions, please send an invitation e-mail to the person from "Invite to Workspace".
- If you want to have access to all floors and manage members' permissions and groups later, please do "Invite by URL".
- If the administrator wants to create an account, please upload a CVS file from "Create User" or enter the member's name and email address
Talking with Team
Web conferencing is becoming the standard when it comes to teleworking communication, but there are many cases where communication has decreased due to troublesome schedule coordination and other reasons. To solve this problem, VoicePing Virtual Office has a "voice call" function that allows you to talk to your team easily.
User Status
Call Out
If the other member is able to speak, please use the "Call out" function. You can talk to them within a set range on the virtual office floor. If you want to talk to all the members on the floor, please use the "Broadcast Functionโ instead of this function.
Text Chat
In addition to the "call" function, a chat box is also provided as a tool to talk with other people . You can also communicate with people from other countries using the text chat's "text translation" function.
Bulletin Board
You can use "custom objects" as an internal communication tool like a bulletin board .
Customize your Floor
You can freely customize the floor using VoicePing's "custom layout function" .
2. Internal Member Meeting
Create a Conference Room
There are three types of conference rooms in the VoicePing virtual office:
general, private, and regular meetings.
In the video below, we are creating a general conference room .
Private Meeting Room
By default, anyone can freely enter and exit the meeting room. Setting a conference room as a private meeting room prevents uninvited members from entering the room.
Please see the page below for details. ๐
Regular Meeting
In a conference room for regular meetings, if you set the participants and time in advance, you can automatically call the participants when the meeting time arrives.
Please see the page below for details. ๐
Set Translatable Languages (optional)
If a person participating in a remote meeting wants to use the translation function ( voice translation / text translation ), they must set the languages that can be translated in advance from "Workspace Language Options".
Voice Translation
One of the VoicePing translation functions, the "voice translation function", is a function that allows utterances to be transcribed in real time and simultaneously translated into one of the set translatable languages.
Please see the page below for details. ๐
Text Translation
If you enable the "Text Translation Function", one of the VoicePing translation functions, texts sent by other users will be translated into the selected language.
Please see the page below for details. ๐
Invite to Meeting
Search for members to join the meeting from the sidebar and invite them to the meeting room.
If you have a large number of participants, you can also share the meeting URL via text chat or as a custom object . (URL is generally used when inviting guests)
Receive Participation Notification (Optional)
You can have meeting participants receive a join notification when they enter the conference room.
Please note that if you enable this feature, participants will not be able to enter the room until you approve their request to join.
Check the Minutes (Optional)
After the meeting, you can view the minutes on your browser.
Additionally, if you have Transcript AI (Beta) enabled, you can view the AI-summarized meeting minutes.
3. Productivity Management
VoicePing Virtual Office has many features to improve your team's productivity, such as time tracking, screenshots, work/online logs, etc.
A. Features for Managers
Managers can view members' work logs and online logs.
The work log records information input by members from the work timer and working hours.
The online log records the time members spent in the virtual office and their status changes during their stay.
Check Work Log
The Work Log feature allows managers to see how much time their member groups are spending on each project or task.
Project Management
In order to use the "Work Log" function, you need to create projects and assign members to each project. You must also enable the time tracking feature .
Time Tracking Function
The time tracking function records which team member worked on which project, what kind of work they did, and how much time they spent on it. If you enable the screenshot function at the same time , a screenshot of the member's desktop screen will be automatically saved every 10 minutes and recorded as a work log.
Online Log
The "Online Log" feature allows managers to see how long members spend in the virtual office and their status changes during their stay.
It is divided into "Weekly Report" and "Daily Online Log" .
You can also download online logs for each member as shown below.
PC Idle time setting
You can set how many minutes of inactivity the status will be changed to Away.
Displaying Apps in use
In addition to checking work logs and online logs, managers can also see members' "apps in use" from the sidebar.
