Dicker Data : Eliminate the weakest link in the work-from-home strategy

High-powered 5G data connections empower hybrid working

Hybrid Working, where employees work from a mix of the office and home, is here to stay. It is accepted that there is no going back to the work model that prevailed before the pandemic.

Are unmanaged, shared, home-internet connections the weakest link in the hybrid workforce strategy?

Hybrid working is only as successful as the strength and power of the data link that connects employees to networks. Organisations have heavily invested in IT infrastructure for communication and collaboration to drive hybrid working into the future. However, without a dedicated, secure, manageable and high-quality internet connection, the benefit of that IT investment can't be fully realised.

The requirement for IT Managers to provide the always on, always connected, always accessible workspace introduces many challenges when managing 'work from home (WFH)' networks.

Challenges of managing WFH networks

Lack of network visibility- IT Managers cannot see what is happening on each home connection through to the edge

Managing Connections- IT Managers don't have the ability to manage or control their WFH networks which are currently made up of hundreds of blind connections.

Securing information- with no control over WFH network connections, it becomes very difficult to fully secure information and control the information going over the network.

Quality of Service- with hundreds of separate third-party connections, it is impossible to control or guarantee the quality of the connection. There is no ability for the manager of the network to prioritise the service, meaning a senior executive who needs to remotely present a keynote address could be competing with their child who is playing Fortnite.
