remote access

Dimension Data’s Remote Access solutions and services allow organisations to provide staff with a more flexible and secure means to communicate and access corporate resources regardless of location. From an environmental perspective, remote access solutions can reduce staff travel and potentially reduce the number and size of office facilities required to operate.

Successful remote access solutions can remove the requirement for mobile and field staff to travel back to the office to connect to the corporate network, by providing secure access from mobile devices and VPN solutions across the public Internet. Remote access can also promote flexible working practices, allowing staff members to work from home or to commute outside normal peak periods, reducing the associated carbon emissions. Additionally, remote access solutions can be employed to enable a distributed and flexible workforce, reducing the requirement on office facilities and their associated environmental footprint.

By integrating remote access with Collaboration solutions, organisations can effectively supplement or replace the need for real-life staff interaction, providing a faster way to resolve business issues in today’s workplace.

By providing staff with effective remote access solutions, organisations can reduce the requirement for staff to travel, which has an impact not just on reducing carbon emissions, but also the associated costs of travel and staff productivity.

Therefore, remote access is not just a “green ICT strategy” – it is also ICT best practice to reduce cost and increase productivity.
