In today’s consumer technology world, the quality of
the experience is everything. So why shouldn’t the business IT
experience be as good as the one we enjoy at home, during our
leisure time?
Over the past five years, has your IT organisation struggled to
keep up with the streamlined and ever-advancing personal
technologies owned by employees? Think about your business IT
experience and compare it with the expectations you have as a
consumer. Do you:
- Access your personal IT from anywhere in the world when you’re
travelling?
- Have email, voice mail, instant messaging, and personal content
to hand 24 hours a day?
- Expect working wirelessly to be the norm?
- Use video as part of a normal web-based conversation?
- Regard the web browser as the only interface you need for any
application?
- Use the device closest to you, whether it’s a laptop,
smartphone or an iPad?
If you answered yes to all the questions above, then you’ll
recognise that a better corporate IT experience could be delivered
to your organisation’s users.
A new workplace model enables communication and collaboration in
ways that were simply not possible in a client-server desktop
world. In the process it creates new opportunities for innovation,
productivity and cost savings. What is new about the workplace of
the future is that it is mobile, social, and visual — and it can be
delivered virtually to every end user (even those without a
PC).
Enabling business users to access a corporate IT workspace that
is more in line with the flexibility of our personal technologies,
whilst remaining secure and compliant, is a goal we should be
striving to attain.
