Permanent home-based employees?
Once we come out of this pandemic, and we will, we are anticipating seeing a permanent home-based workforce. While we don’t see EVERY employee working from home, we do anticipate many will. There are two things you need to consider for a permanent home-based workforce:
1. Client Acceleration for home-based workers. Home-based workers, especially in rural areas, don’t have the bandwidth that is available in other, more urban areas. However, even with a lot of bandwidth, competition for that bandwidth exists, as others in the household are also utilizing the internet for gaming and streaming audio and video. The Client Accelerator provides the home-based employee the optimization needed to be productive in the home office.
2. End User Performance monitoring. Administrators need to know that business critical applications are performing well for the home-based workforce, and want statistics on application usage. How long was the user in the application? What applications were used? End User Performance monitoring can give the business manager/owner statistics to show the home-based workforce is performing to the level expected in the office.
