WIRELESS AND MOBILITY

Wireless Networking

WiFi wireless networking provides you a sharing of electronic files to your friends and co-workers so easy, or even sharing of documents between your phone or personal digital assistant to your PC. But, the real power of these wireless networks goes far beyond simply sharing files or being able to move them easily from your desktop computer to your laptop.

Streamlining the wireless WiFi network creates new avenues for the way people work as well as access information. This occurs due to the immediate level of flexibility and improved efficiency. Future intentions call for nearly all cell phones to allow for inclusion in this wireless mobile networks.

Experts in the field all agree that WiFi networking is the way to go. They feel certain that, within the next few years, wireless mobile networking will be found everywhere.

Year by year, increasing numbers of companies discover the “pluses” of using WiFi in stores, warehouses, and offices. This often improves employee communication within the office and improves customer service as well. Public facilities, such as major airports and libraries, are expanding their internet access hot spots, making it easier all the time for people to find free and easy wireless internet access when they are on the go.

BYOD

2012 was the year the Bring-Your-Own-Device (BYOD) trend became mainstream.

Beyond BYOD itself, the other key thing was the adoption of a “people-centric approach” by organisation in facilitating BYOD. In particular, we have seen IT departments divert their attention from managing desktops and devices to managing users, and we can attribute this to the growing mobility and consumerisation of enterprise IT.

Often when attempting to individually manage the large amounts of devices that are capable of accessing networks. Thus, the IT departments that were better able to capitalise on the benefits of BYOD were the ones that “decoupled the user space from the rest of computing and managed the user profile instead of decoupling the desktop.”

IT departments want to improve the user experience and improve flexibility, but they also have to ensure that the overall setup is secure, predictable and personalized.

Wireless LANs are a trend, if you already have deployed and want to look at BYOD and other options or are in the midst of deciding how and where to start, call us today to schedule a visit, our experts can help you.
