PCR Tech and IT retail, distribution and vendor news
The Dec-Jan 21 issue of PCR, which hits desks at the beginning of January, will include a look at the challenges the recent shift towards home/remote working has created in the wake of Coronavirus restrictions.
We will be covering:
Remote/home working
Cloud based services for storage (Dropbox, Google Cloud)
File transfer eg. We transfer
Virtual meetings eg. Teams, Zoom
I will be working on an article and I am looking for comment on the following questions:
- Please can you tell me a bit more about the company and what solutions does it’s offer for remote working?
- How is this different from other similar industry offerings?
- How do you see the future of home/remote working panning out? What will organisations need to have in place to ensure a safe and successful long-term roll out of this?
- What are the key issues companies should look to address when setting up their remote/home working infrastructure?
- How should companies go about ensuring a safe and secure environment?
We are also looking for opinions and analysis around the sector as well as product guides looking at Laptops, Peripherals, software, IoT and cyber security and any hardware/software related to home/remote working
