Technology Post Pandemic
Thinking back to what business looked like a year ago, the vast majority of office workers had moved entirely to remote working and huge uncertainty surrounded returning to office. Whilst it would be naïve to say that we are now looking at the impact of the pandemic on working life from the other side, we do now have a stronger degree of hindsight. We know that many businesses are embracing the changes required to adapt to pandemic home working, with hybrid computing becoming the norm for many organisations. This is unsurprising as it was the businesses relying on legacy on-premise technology that we saw struggle the most during Covid-19 lockdowns. Observing the move to cloud technologies has been commonplace when it comes to how communication, collaboration, and security has been addressed over the past year. The clear next step is for businesses to look at their IT environment as a whole, analysing their core systems such as ERP and CRM. As previously standalone systems these have now evolved into solutions designed to work seamlessly together, making a tangible difference to business operations.
With many organisations adopting hybrid and remote working, user-friendly and modern business technology that is accessible anywhere is needed now more than ever. Legacy on-premise solutions are quickly becoming outdated, with their inability to facilitate flexible working styles. Solutions such as Microsoft Dynamics offer businesses an opportunity to centralise their finance and business applications in a modern workspace, without the burden of costly server refreshes or hosting costs, and the advantage of seamlessly integrating with the wider Microsoft Office 365 environment.
