It would be a lot MORE relevant if there were some actual tools listed & discussed!

Hello,

I was watching SDNOG and saw the below conversation recently.
Here is the relavant part:

"I think this is the concern of all of us, how to work from home and to
keep same productivity level,, we need collaborative tools to engaging
the team.  I am still searching for tool and apps that are free, tolerance
the poor internet speed."

I know of some free tools and all, but am not aware of the tolerance
they may have to slow speed and (likely) poor internet connections.

I was wondering if anyone here has experience with tools that'd work,
so I could suggest something to them.

I don't know if everyone's aware of what they have been going through
in Sudan (both of them), but it has been a rough life there recently.

Thanks!
scott

Subject: [sdnog] How to work from home

    Hi all
    Hope you are all safe wherever you are,

    Regards to the current situation around the world , and as we all
    adviced/forced to start working from home which is not common here
    in our community , and I know some bosses are not convinced unless
    they saw you in your desk :D

    my question is , for simple offices ,with no great infrastructure
    , just an internet connection to their edge ,how can they work
    from home ? Is there any free tools /ways they can use, what are
    the options, with taking along the security concerns

    what is your advice to achieve that in a proper way , and for
    those who managed to work from home , how did you do that ?
    Please share your experience ^_^


    And how we as "sdnog community" can help in that "for the old
    fashioned bosses :D"

    I think this is the concern of all of us, how to work from home
    and to keep same productivity level,, we need collaborative tools
    to engaging the team.
    I am still searching for tool and apps that are free, tolerance
    the poor internet speed.

    Any suggestion
