Factsheet Access Solutions 31/01/2006

Improved communications for your mobile workforce - cutting your costs whilst boosting your productivity

Depending on your business, mobile workers may need to stay in touch from a variety of different locations; from a hotel-room in the next county to an airport overseas. For your organisation to maintain the essential edge against fast-moving competitors, it is vital that your mobile users, wherever they are, can access corporate data and applications as easily as if they were deskbound at your HQ.

With a Citrix Workforce Mobility solution, ISC can help you extend your IT resources far beyond your normal office environment. This can lead to better remote sales, improved communications and enhanced customer relationship management.

Workforce Mobility gives staff on the move a single point of secure access, from any device, to precisely the same IT resources as colleagues in the office. Users enjoy rapid, secure connection over any type of network, with full authentification, access control and server-to-client encryption to safeguard even the most sensitive information.

All applications reside on a central server for reduced desktop administration. This ensures that network performance is optimised, security is strengthened and operating costs - from maintenance and applications deployment to IT staffing - are slashed. In addition, applications can be both web- and wireless-enabled with no redevelopment cost.
