3 min read
Being able to have complete and efficient control of the business even working remotely is a goal shared by many companies, never before called to completely reorganize the management of business activities. In order to avoid disruptions and align with the social distancing measures imposed by the ongoing health emergency, even companies less inclined to exploit digital assets have had to take steps in this direction, mainly by implementing agile ways of working.
Many companies are putting into practice new tools and methods for working remotely that until yesterday they only knew in theory. It does not end here: these practices and technologies will be available to us even at the end of the coronavirus emergency. What can we do with it?
Our advice is to optimize and make these tools more and more secure so that they continue to be valid allies for the company.
Below we provide you with tips for working remotely in a safe and effective way, with the possibility of involving not only your internal collaborators, but also external ones, partners, and customers.
Create secure access to the company’s cloud tools
Remote work first of all involves the use of the cloud that is the virtual place that each employee can access from any place and at any time. How to make the cloud as secure as possible? Investing in security will always be useful: even after the “return to normal” it will be essential to protect your company data.
Train those with access to the company’s cloud world
It is important to educate each person about what it means to work in the age of the Internet: knowing good practices and actions to avoid, positive and negative consequences of their actions. Invest in your team and make them aware of the issues related to network security and how to deal with them, starting with simple operations such as the importance of choosing adequate passwords and knowing how to recognize fraudulent links.
Use tools and applications that really streamline your work
Going in this direction means putting everyone in the best conditions to work. The difficulty of access, compatibility between different computers, the software never seen before and which seem to increase the amount of work rather than decrease it: these are issues you have already heard about.
These are new solutions to old problems!
We are talking about SaaS platforms, that is, usable through the network without downloading any program to the computer. Why prefer them? First of all, because they are constantly updated by developers in terms of ease of use and security; secondly, because you will be able to manage your subscriptions in the medium term without making large initial investments which, however, turn out to be incorrect only after some time.
- multi-user access from any device;
- data that is always updated, shared, and can be consulted even outside the office in real-time and with maximum efficiency;
- no installation or maintenance costs are required;
- opportunity to work in total safety thanks to the high standards that Snowflake remote support is able to offer.
