Mobile Working
ZDNet UK Reviews - Buyer's Guides - Mobile Working: "A business whose workforce can be productive away from the office is potentially a business with an edge over its competitors. But which technologies should you adopt? This guide examines the issues.Mobile working, in the context of this guide, is about employees being productive away from what we traditionally consider to be �the office�. As such, it can cover a wide range of physical locations and situations: working while travelling; with clients in their own offices; with clients at neutral locations; away from the office at fixed locations such as conferences; when on medium- and long-term assignments; and at home.
Several elements must come together to facilitate a mobile working solution: back-office IT infrastructure, Internet connectivity, operating systems, applications and the mobile devices that actually deliver the services to employees. All of these elements must be carefully chosen to fit the specific business tasks required of them, and must appear as transparent as possible to the mobile workforce. Meanwhile, back at the office, there will be particular challenges for IT staff in designing, deploying and supporting mobile working solutions."
