How TRAACS Product Helped Agents to Thrive In the Pandemic

The COVID-19 pandemic forced many business organizations to manage their operations with more than 90 percent of their staff working from home. This created huge challenges for businesses in many industries and businesses in the travel industry were no exception.
Throughout the pandemic, travel agencies were forced to figure out how to perform a wide variety of tasks remotely that they would have never imagined that they wouldn’t be able to perform in the office. These tasks included accounting, billing, collection, follow-ups, finance control, customer support, sales follow-up, customer support, and more.
In order to adapt to the business challenges of the pandemic, travel agents needed to find a remote work platform that enabled remote collaboration, activation, automation, and digitization of work processes and that could be controlled centrally.
