Natural disasters and PositivePRO
An off topic post for me, but as a victim of the European airspace shutdown thanks to the Icelandic volcano whose name I cannot even pronounce, we felt that it was imperative that I discuss my experience with our readers.
By now, I am sure that you have heard of the volcano that erupted in Iceland. It sent a huge plume of ash and dust into the atmosphere where it happily floated over to Europe where I was attending a wedding with my family. Now, I am not here to give you a science lesson, but long story short - European airspace was closed and I was stranded.
Every flight to and from Europe was cancelled, and I had no idea when I would be able to get home, not only to my pets, but also to my...

Why companies expand remote access to everyone
Employees are really feeling the pinch these days. Cutbacks due to the recession mean that remaining workers are being asked to do more with less. Couple that with general feelings of unease over job security and you’ve got the recipe for declining employee morale. Short of the company getting healthier as the economy improves, there isn’t a magic bullet to improve employee morale. Or is there?

The Importance of Remote Access From Non-Company owned PCs
As I watched reports of the east coast getting hammered by the blizzard, I wondered how many employees wouldn't make it to work. Events like this remind me how beneficial our PositivePRO Cloud-based remote access really is.
It's widely accepted that remote access is still one of the best technologies to improve worker productivity. Something to keep in mind when deploying remote access is that more and more individuals want to access company information from their own PC or laptop. This is especially true of younger workers. An increasing number of IT staffs recognize that supporting remote access from non-company issued devices is a requirement. However,...

IT Remote Access: The Times are a-Changing
What does “IT remote access” mean to you?
IT remote access has evolved immensely throughout the years.

Today: IT remote access has exponentially grown as the flow of timely information has become a critical business advantage. Employees, vendors, customers, consultants and others all require access to company information in many places and situations.
The Future: Computing will require information anywhere, anytime, any way.
