MyOutDesk, a virtual assistant company specializing in services for real estate agents, faced a significant challenge in maintaining consistent and reliable communication between its customers and virtual assistants (VAs). The company, which started in 2008 with 30 VAs, has grown to a company of 1,800 VAs serving more than 1,000 real estate agents and brokers across the US. Most of the company’s VAs (95%) are located in the Philippines. They handle a range of real estate–specific jobs, such as managing MLS listings, short-sale processing, filling out forms, calling prospects, and so on. The company's original VoIP system was not reliable enough to support consistent communication between the Philippines and the US, which was crucial for the company's success.
