Convoe's Best Remote Work Tools in 2026: Enhance Team Productivity

Remote work is no longer a trend—it's the standard for many teams. Having the right tools makes the difference between thriving and struggling. Here are our picks.

Communication: For pure chat, Slack remains excellent. For unified workspace with chat plus tasks, Convoe leads. For video, Zoom and Google Meet are reliable choices.

Project Management: Asana and Monday.com work great for remote teams with their async-friendly designs. ClickUp offers great value for feature-hungry teams.

Documentation: Notion dominates for flexible documentation. Confluence works well for technical teams. Google Docs remains solid for simple needs.

Video Conferencing: Zoom is the standard. Google Meet integrates well with Workspace. Loom is essential for async video messages.

Time Management: Toggl for time tracking. Clockwise for intelligent calendar management. Reclaim.ai for protecting focus time.

File Storage: Google Drive and Dropbox remain the leaders. Many teams are consolidating into tools like Notion that include storage.

Security: 1Password or LastPass for password management. VPNs for sensitive work. SSO solutions for enterprise.

Async Communication: Loom for video updates. Slack/Convoe for threaded discussions. Notion for long-form async communication.

Our recommendation: Don't use all these tools—you'll create the tool sprawl problem. Choose a unified platform where possible, and add specialized tools only when needed.
