The system integrator offers valuable technologies and services that enable companies to work easily from home and to respond to the critical issues generated by COVID-19
Computer Center, a consulting company specializing in IT products, services and solutions for companies, confirms that it is ready to support with its Smart Working technologies, all companies that have to cope with the Coronavirus emergency in recent weeks.
The Decree-Law of February 23, issued to deal with the health emergency set in motion by the cases of contagion from COVID-19, provides for the application of agile work until March 15 in the regions affected by the infection even in the absence of individual agreements between employer and employee.
Labor consultants count about 8 million people who could work in Smart Working, a method already widespread in the rest of Europe which, however, in Italy still seems to be struggling to establish itself, counting today a number equal to 354 thousand people who make it a normal use. In fact, Eurostat data for 2018 show that just 2% usually work in Smart Working, against the European average of 11.6%.
For some time now, companies in the technology sector have been specializing in innovative solutions and services to adequately support companies in managing these new operating methods, providing them with the advantages of advanced functions and the benefits of significant cost reduction. This is the case of Centro Computer, which for over 10 years has been constantly investing in Unified Communications solutions, a set of solutions that allow people in an organization to communicate quickly, collaborate more effectively and activate flexible work groups with the utmost simplicity.
"For four years we have adopted the Smart Working solutions within our company in a standard way, - he says Roberto Vicenzi, Vice President of Computer Center – attuabili da tutti i nostri dipendenti in modo sicuro e protetto. La diffusione delle soluzioni in cloud facilita di molto l’implementazione di soluzioni per il lavoro agile. Nei nostri uffici utilizziamo Microsoft Teams per le comunicazioni audio e videoconferenza e Microsoft Office 365 per la gestione delle mail e la collaborazione. Inoltre, Citrix ci permette di ‘terminalizzare’ tramite web ogni applicazione in uso presso i sistemi informativi aziendali.”
La piattaforma Microsoft Office 365 e più in particolare Microsoft Teams, assicurano strumenti collaborativi e convenienti di UC per le aziende di qualsiasi dimensione, mentre con OneDrive for Business è possibile archiviare, sincronizzare e condividere i file di lavoro in cloud. Con Microsoft Yammer inoltre ci si assicura il social network aziendale che consente alle persone di collaborare e rimanere aggiornate su quello che succede in azienda. Infine, con Microsoft Teams, l’Hub di Office 365 che integra persone, contenuti e strumenti per rendere le persone sempre più coinvolte, si può integrare la fonia nei progetti di Intelligent Communication e Digital Workplace.
Even a single wrong solution can put the entire company at risk, if it underestimates the issue of security and privacy. It therefore becomes essential to invest in the most innovative technologies and rely on a competent partner who can advise and support the customer in the implementation of the best Smart Working infrastructures, with the certainty of being able to deal with emergency situations without normal activities being stopped.
"Those who were still skeptical until today had to clash with current events and change their minds. - concludes Vicenzi of Centro Computer - Companies that have been caught unprepared for this emergency will reflect on the type of technology they need and will have to decide to invest in new solutions as soon as possible. Consequently, we expect an increasing demand from companies for the implementation of infrastructures that allow their employees to take advantage of the advantages of Smart Working, without penalizing in any way the simplicity of management and information security.
