How do I enable my team to work flexibly?
Before the events of 2020, flexible working wasn't as prominent as it is today. Cloud-based collaboration platforms existed, but IT infrastructure was typically structured around users accessing resources from a central office location.
Following the events of early 2020, we witnessed a vast upheaval in the world of work as we transitioned from predominantly office-based roles to home-based working seemingly overnight.
In the two years following these events, we embraced home working and predicted it was here to stay. However, over the past 12 months, we have seen a significant trend towards flexible working- giving your team the capability to work securely and effectively from where they feel most comfortable.
With that in mind, this article explores how you can enable your team to work flexibly, giving them the tools to work from wherever they are.
1. Cloud-based collaboration platforms:
One of the essential foundations for effectively flexible working is collaboration. Your teams can't work effectively in silos. They need the power to communicate, access files and collaborate on projects in real time.
Nviron's team of accredited specialists can help you build the right collaboration platforms to help you boost productivity and streamline communication whilst aligning with your unique business requirements.
2. Secure Virtual Private Networks (VPNs):
With more employees than ever working outside your physical office's boundaries, VPNs enable your team to securely access sensitive data whilst guarding against cyber threats, promoting a seamless, flexible working experience.
3. Device Management & Endpoint Security:
Managing a fleet of remote devices can be challenging and time-consuming without the right tools. By implementing comprehensive device management and endpoint security measures, you can monitor, secure and update your devices remotely while ensuring all devices accessing your network adhere to the highest security standards.
4. Technical support when you need it most:
Our IT services go beyond procurement and implementation. Our Technical Support team can be an extension of your in-house IT team, offering technical support when needed.
Whether you need one-on-one support to fix problems quickly or more in-depth help to fix complex technical issues, we can make our service fit yours. Ultimately, we aim to have you back up and running as soon as possible.
5. Scalable solutions for growth:
As your organisation evolves, so do your technology needs. Our IT solutions are designed with scalability in mind, ensuring that the infrastructure supporting your remote work environment can seamlessly adapt to the changing demands of your business.
