Choose the right hybrid work solution to empower your workforce
Today’s IT leaders must support a new generation of workers and work styles. The workplace has changed, and employees are staying productive at home, in the office, and everywhere in between.
Your stakeholders are looking to you to empower workers to be engaged and productive by delivering inclusive, flexible, supportive, secure, manageable work experiences at scale. It’s up to you to:
- Drive business outcomes by deploying interoperable, easy-to-integrate solutions for:
- - Collaboration
- - Networking
- - Cybersecurity
- Manage risk and avoid breaking anything
- Strengthen cybersecurity and enforce compliance
- Provide a common platform to support employees wherever they choose to work
Hybrid work is an opportunity for you to:
Boost agility to meet business stakeholder needs- Minimize complexity to simplify administrative operations
- Execute effectively, with no regrettable spend
But not all hybrid work solutions are equal.
Look for a vendor that offers:
Open and standards-based solutions
Avoid proprietary, closed solutions that may limit you. Does your vendor build to industry standards for third-party integration and management?
A rich partner ecosystem
Is your vendor backed by an extensive partner ecosystem with in-house professional services to help accelerate business outcomes?
Cloud-ready, blueprint-based deployment
Does your vendor offer flexible consumption models and certified designs and architectures to accelerate deployment and minimize risk and time to execution?
Complete, purpose-built solutions
Does your vendor provide solutions that will fully support all locations a hybrid workforce requires?
Choose a solution that will:
Simplify network operations with enhanced observability across domains and applications
- Apply analytics to support proactive OAM&P, including third-party management tools
- Strengthen observability across network, security, collaboration, and other applications
- Support easy deployment of location- based services
Provide a foundation of built-in security to minimize risk and strengthen compliance
- Support secure access for employees regardless of location
- Enable a consistent security policy spanning on-prem and cloud environments
Offer a choice of deployment options for cloud or on-premise solutions
