Enterprise Connectivity, Integrated Security, Devices and Visual Collaboration
Success working from home starts with robust, reliable connectivity and quality visual collaboration. For remote employees, the user experience can be challenging. Poor bandwidth, home workspace, device configurations and equipment can cause end-user frustration. Whether your employees are home a few days, and in-office the rest, they need reliability. It’s equally important to ensure they are fully fitted with the right technology and hardware.
According to TechTarget, “To date, many home workers have simply ‘got by’ using their existing internet connectivity, but this does pose both ongoing performance and cyber security challenges for many organizations. As home working models mature, we would expect to see increased investments in connectivity and security as remote access to systems, applications and data becomes the norm.”

Return to Office with Visual Collaboration & Workspace Solutions
Hybrid work today demands a frictionless collaboration experience between teams operating in home and office environments. In a recent study by Frost & Sullivan, for 75% of home workers, this means upgrading their home working kits and for CIOs it means upgrading and reconfiguring 90 million office rooms to support hybrid work and collaboration – of which less than 10% today have video capabilities. According to industry analysts, the office meeting room solutions segment is expected to triple by 2024. With the latest trend of Return to the Office, a demand for video collaboration solutions for small meeting rooms and huddle spaces has increased. The need for high-quality collaboration solutions designed for small, distributed teams has grown. Not sure how to accommodate meetings for smaller groups? Consider switching to huddle rooms – private meeting areas that fit up to 10 participants – for on-site and remote collaboration and working across small teams.
