Now More Than Ever, Businesses Need Great Networks
Posted: Fri Sep 04, 2020 02:02:01 PM
 

The coronavirus crisis has hit businesses hard. From cafes and boutique hotels to plumbers and trucking companies, business owners have had to think fast as physical-world meetings, events and in-person appointments all but disappeared. Accountants, law firms and other professional services firms rapidly pivoted to work-from-home. Many retailers are newly embracing to digital sales or curbside pickup. Restaurants, dentist offices, gyms and other businesses are exploring how to open back up, deliver on their promised experiences, and keep employees and customers safe.

Everyone is figuring out their path to the “new normal.” Crisis-driven work-from-home setups will be replaced with a more sustainable strategy for remote access to a full suite of applications and digital schools. Classrooms went virtual nearly overnight, and school districts are exploring how to enable high-quality, secure digital learning for the summer and fall, with access to labs and applications that were previously only available onsite.

Now is the time for every business to reevaluate how they do business, and to use their analytical and creative skills to carve out new paths forward in a flexible, iterative manner.

The challenges are many, but there’s one thing in common: A fast, reliable network connection can make your employee and customer experiences amazing.
