Remote Computing
Every business faces many situations
in which the information their employees, partners, or
customers need is not easily accessible. You don't want to
lose money through lost productivity, poor communication
with your partners, or lost revenue from your customers but
you can't just give everyone open access to your computer
systems.
The first step in determining how your
business can benefit from Remote Computing is to identify
your business needs. Here's how:
Brainstorm on ways that your business
could benefit from remote access for your employees. Ideas
like: Sales people who need to be mobile and could be far
more productive if they could close a deal without coming
back to the office, field workers who would be more
efficient if they could enter job site information remotely,
managers and owners who want more freedom to work from home
or even check-in to the office from a vacation spot, keeping
a valuable employee who is leaving on maternity leave or has
difficulty coming into the office every day, or computer
administrators or managers who support remote offices or who
attend occasional off-site training classes or events.
Now, do the same for your partners: get
immediate remote support for computer issues, your
accountant can review the monthly financials without
disrupting everyone and charging for on-site visits, your
primary application vendor can perform training and software
updates/support without expensive on-site visits, a partner
can instantly check the status of something you are working
on together, the vendor(s) of a product or service that you
resell can check the relevant sales volumes and even
forecast information, or partners that sell your services or
products could easily check your inventory or schedules or
get product/service information that would help them sell
for you.
Finally, brainstorm on ways that your
customers could benefit from having access to specific
pieces of information. Some ideas might be: current product
or service announcements, current inventory levels and
pricing, up-to-date account information, project or order
status, or anything that your customers would otherwise
regularly call your business to find out.
Now that you know that you could
benefit from Remote Computing, The Ronin Group will help you
match the technology to your business needs in the most
secure and cost effective manner.
