Myth 1- Relocation technology is not appropriate to the different people present in a company

This myth needs to be changed as relocation technology is appropriate for all people. Maybe you have employees who are newly hired or someone who is working at managerial level or people, who are working as executive, renters, or you have a business of homeowners, relocation technology can be used for all kind of aspects. The reason for the same is that for every kind of demographic it’s valuable for all the employee in all manners. This technology also provides hyperlocal city content which is tremendously useful for all aspects. To the more, the relocation technology platform is also aid as it offers information for the transferees to the family about school systems, spousal support, and things related to nature. A good relocation technology provides a solution to all kind of content.

Myth #2: Relocation technology is just considered important for the transferee

This statement is wrong as relocation technology is advantageous for both sides that is the employee and the employer. The interface in itself is focused on all the employees and make sure that a seamless transition could be conducted from Point A to Point B. Not just this, this technology can provide several things to the employees and the companies. For instance, one gets a chance to see the visual path of where the employee should be in connection to their move, and where they actually stand.

Relo technology works well along with RMCs to fill the gaps present in both of them. For example, relocation technology is the best source when it comes to providing educational content for transferees, offering them resources even after the starting move is done.

Myth #4: The company wants their employees to have contact with the actual person rather than getting in touch with a computer program

Technology is manmade and everything cannot be done by using it but then because of this they exist integrated moving gatekeepers in the relocation technology platform. The assisting agent is available for the employees all the time to contact whenever they doubt in their mind and it could not be cleared by the relocation platform. The person there is someone who has extensive knowledge and would be available to assist you all the times till there a complete solution is offered. The person could handle different zones such as time-specific or general questions, details onboarding and any aspect related to moving.

Myth #6: The same kind of information is provided by relocation technology which is given by HR as well

Relocation technology is not a simple checklist that just provides a list of vendors whom you can call. Relocation technology helps the employers by providing details on each step however an HR would just given tips on moving or how to handle people but exact every minute detail step wise won’t be cleared. The [relocation technology] does all the work for you which HR won’t do

Thus to conclude, these are certain myths which are usually there in the minds of people regarding relocation.
