Remote work has become the new normal for many teams, but staying productive and connected can still be a challenge. Misaligned communication, scattered tools, and a lack of centralized workflows often lead to unnecessary frustration and delays. Cynoia solves these issues by offering an all-in-one workspace designed to make remote collaboration seamless. With features like the Projects App, Chat App, Notes App, and Video Calls, Cynoia provides everything your team needs to stay organized and connected – no matter where they’re working from. Here’s how to set up a remote-friendly workspace in Cynoia.

Why remote teams need a centralized workspace

Without a centralized workspace, remote teams often face:

  • Scattered communication: Conversations spread across multiple tools can lead to miscommunication.

  • Tool overload: Constantly switching between apps disrupts focus and productivity.

  • Lack of alignment: When tasks and updates aren’t centralized, it’s difficult to stay on the same page.

Cynoia eliminates these challenges by consolidating your team’s workflows into one easy-to-use platform.

Step-by-step guide to setting up your workspace

1. Create your Cynoia workspace

Start by signing up at Cynoia.

  • Invite your team members to join your workspace.

  • Use the Community Plan (free for up to 10 users) to get started, or explore the Pro Team Plan for advanced features.

How-to Tip: Use Cynoia’s intuitive setup to onboard your team quickly – no lengthy training required.

2. Organize your team’s projects

Use the Projects App to create and manage tasks for each project.

  • Set up a new project and customize its name, description, and color.

  • Add columns in Kanban view to represent different stages of the workflow (e.g., “To-Do,” “In Progress,” “Done”).

  • Create tasks with clear titles, due dates, and assignees to ensure clarity.

How-to Tip: Use labels to categorize tasks by priority, department, or type (e.g., “Urgent” or “Marketing”).

3. Streamline communication with the Chat App

Centralize your team’s conversations in Cynoia’s Chat App.

  • Create channels for specific projects, topics, or departments to keep discussions focused.

  • Share files and updates directly in chat to keep everything in context.

  • Use mentions (e.g., @username) to direct messages to specific team members.

How-to Tip: Pin important messages in channels to make key updates easy to find.

4. Collaborate on shared notes

The Notes App is perfect for documenting processes, brainstorming ideas, or creating shared resources.

  • Create notes for meeting agendas, project plans, or knowledge bases.

  • Organize notes into collections and folders for easy navigation.

  • Allow team members to edit notes in real time for seamless collaboration.

How-to Tip: Pin frequently accessed notes to the top of your workspace for quick reference.

5. Schedule and host video calls

Cynoia’s Video Call App makes it easy to connect face-to-face with your team.

  • Schedule regular check-ins or start instant calls directly from the Chat App.

  • Use screen sharing to present ideas or review documents in real time.

  • Host calls for up to 10 users in the Community Plan or more in Pro Team plans.

How-to Tip: Combine video calls with shared notes to document action items and decisions in real time.
