Last year, during our Work Anywhere webinar, Forrester analyst Andrew Hewitt said that 51% of the technology teams focused on providing the right technology to enhance the employee experience. By 2021, the entire IT organization saw the need to support a flexible digital workplace with appropriate devices, wherever employees were located. According to computer economics, hardware such as PCs, laptops, and mobile devices age every four years. Therefore, device refresh becomes an important planning activity for support teams in keeping their knowledge workers productive and reducing the total cost of ownership (TCO).
Whether you accept it or not, the return to the office is happening. Companies like Microsoft, Google, Apple, Goldman Sachs, and Citigroup have asked their employees to resume operations on-site. Overall, the number of Covid cases in the US has steadily declined. And many states are now lifting their mask mandates. So sooner or later, more businesses will follow a similar suit, including yours.
Crowdsourcing is becoming an essential part of many enterprises, from big companies to startups. This is because it is an incredible way of creating an ecosystem to facilitate different processes within a business. Leveraging the Exoprise platform, companies can benchmark their slow proxies, detect, and fix slow network experiences. Crowdsourcing entails getting information, goods, or services from disparate people worldwide. Often, crowdsourcing is made possible through the magic of cloud-based applications and platforms because of the way the Internet connects people and organizations. Exoprise specializes in crowdsourced monitoring of cloud and SaaS services. We call it crowd-powered.

Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) provides an enhanced security mechanism for your entire organization by requiring multiple methods of authentication credentials. Using traditionally managed passwords for accessing your apps, services, and networks is no longer a secure methodology. Indeed, cyber threats are on the rise. Hackers today employ sophisticated techniques such as spear-phishing or pharming to gain unauthorized access to corporate accounts.
I hate to say this, but #Omicron is at the doorstep. According to the CDC website, there have been over 60M cases in the US so far. As a result, companies like Google and Apple are delaying returning to the office while some call the return date as now 'history'. Although we cannot predict the nature of the virus, we have some best practices to help our customers and IT manage their employee experience in a hybrid distributed environment.
