  collaboration with your remote team and the early
  you involve the team, the more it helps everyone
  understand the importance and type of work. Tools
  like Microsoft Teams help to run a planning
  workshop using a video meeting where you can
  discuss

  track the work and update it regularly. The My
  Work is a report that contains the list of work
  assigned to the user. Based on this report, you
  can find the upcoming or any overdue tasks and
  even flag issues by ticking the box.
• Another key feature of SharePoint development is
  the document library which makes it easy to
  access any documents from a central location and
  this is especially helpful for remote workers.

• One of the most crucial challenges of remote
  teams is to develop relationships and get to know
  the teammates and colleagues. Going to the office
  makes it very easy to chat with colleagues and to
  know each other. But with remote work, this often
  becomes difficult. SharePoint makes communication
  easier for remote employees as they can link with
  their relevant team through SharePoint.
