1. Virtual Cloud Desktops
As the business world is increasingly embracing gig workers and hybrid work models, it is now imperative to use solutions that can make communication and collaboration possible between people working from different parts of the world. Many surveys indicate that remote work, which became widespread due to pandemic-induced lockdowns, is here to stay. So, if you want to hire and retain top talents, you need to make their work-from-home experience hassle-free. With virtual cloud desktops, you can make remote work seamless and feasible.
Virtual cloud desktops are virtual computing operating systems hosted on cloud-based resources. Because of that, your employees can access your business resources using any device (PCs, laptops, tablets, mobile phones) and from anywhere in the world. They also do not have to worry about backups, software updates, and data security, as virtual desktop providers take care of that. Scalability is another advantage of using virtual cloud desktops.
2. Unified Threat Management
For most businesses, cyber threats will continue to be a top concern in 2023. This is because malicious actors are becoming more sophisticated and capable of breaching the most robust network security. If you want to thwart their attacks and manage risks, invest in a feature-rich cyber security solution such as Unified Threat Management (UTM).
UTM offers multiple security functions, such as network firewalls, intrusion detection and prevention, antivirus, data loss prevention, and reporting, all in one security solution. With it, you can easily deal with a wide range of threats; and UTM is much faster than other software when it comes to responding to cyberattacks. And, as it eliminates the need for several security solutions, you can save money and time, and reduce the number of people needed to combat cyberattacks. There is no need to invest in an expensive IT security infrastructure either.
3. Print Management
Automation is now the key to efficiency and productivity in your business, as it eliminates repetitive tasks and streamlines processes. So, make sure to invest in print management in 2023. It will transform your business by simplifying the management of your print infrastructure.
Print management allows you to manage your company’s printers and printing from one central point. By tapping into it, you can organize processes, streamline printing operations, save administration efforts, and reduce your environmental footprint. Print management also enables automatic synchronization of the print database and system environment.
Start 2023 with a Splash!
Some traditional ways of running a business are no longer viable. Today, if you want your business to carve out a niche for itself in a changing market, it needs the support of tech solutions. So, say goodbye to 2022 by investing in them and start 2023 with a splash.
