Collaborative and mobile technologies riding over a high-speed, reliable network have given workers a new benefit: freedom. They can work wherever, whenever, and maintain productive contact with their colleagues, workgroups, customers, and business partners. At the same time, companies save money on real-estate costs by moving workers from expensive urban locations to less-expensive suburban or home offices.
Join us as Robin Gareiss, executive vice president & senior founding partner, and Dr. Michael Jude, senior analyst, present new research detailing how IT and network staffs serve their remote workers and branch offices.
You'll get practical advice on how to build a robust, well-managed, and cost-effective branch-office infrastructure. And, you'll learn how companies are ensuring their mobile workers stay productive and connected. Specifically, we'll cover:
*How are companies handling demand for higher bandwidth? What is the growth rate, and what's driving these changes?
*What are the key products IT decision-makers use at the branch, and what do they budget for them?
*What WAN services are most-often used to serve the virtual workplace, and why?
*Why are so many companies using managed services at the branch? What value do they bring, and what do they use?
*What are the must-have wireless products for 2008, and why?
*What challenges do companies face in delivering wireless applications, and how do they solve them?
