Managing the
consumerisation of IT
In the last year the level of
smartphone and tablet ownership has increased rapidly, and with it
the trend towards the consumerisation of IT. As a result,
organisations are coming under ever-increasing pressure to let
their employees choose what devices they use to do their work
on. They are having to consider the implications of flexible
working and allowing access to the data and applications on the
network.
How can you meet the needs of your business with flexibility,
agility and predictability, whilst embracing new technologies with
clear demonstrable benefit, seamlessly, simply and securely?
Britannic Technologies have been delivering flexible working
solutions to clients for a number of years, but as technologies
change the solutions become simpler, more secure and more cost
effective to implement.
- 96% of private sector employers operate at
least one flexible working policy
- The number of employers offering flexible working almost
doubled over the last six years
- 82% of IT managers have a policy in place
regarding the use of personal devices at work
Who should
attend?
Business leaders, IT directors and managers, particularly those
within professional services, will be interested to hear the latest
research on flexible working and how call recording can be
incorporated into a flexible working environment.

Gartner has published their 2012
Magic Quadrant for WAN Optimization Controllers, authored by Joe
Skorupa and Severine Real. Ipanema Technologies has been positioned
as a "Visionary" in the 2012 Magic Quadrant report.
According to the report, "WAN optimization is about improving the
performance of business applications over WAN connections. This
means matching the allocation of WAN resources to business needs
and deploying the optimization techniques that deliver measurable
business benefits. The majority of WOCs are purchased by North
American companies (with Europe coming second) because these
companies have the greatest number of branch offices. These WOCs
are deployed to support an increasingly global WAN footprint.
Most networks carry a variety of traffic types of differing
characteristics and importance. Many organizations are striving to
manage this traffic to optimize the response times of critical
applications and reduce costs, given that bandwidth continues to
represent a significant proportion of operating expenditure for
wide-area data networks. But the cost of bandwidth isn't the only
consideration - as resources are increasingly centralized,
minimizing the effect of latency on application response times is
becoming a critical requirement. In addition, virtualization and
new application environments, such as cloud computing and Web
services, can put an unexpected strain on the network…"
Gartner analysts evaluate technology providers on completeness of
vision and ability to execute.
