Re-Energize Your Firm with These Technologies!

Re-Energize Your Firm with These Technologies!

The world of business is changing fast, making it easy to fall behind the competition. If you are struggling to keep up or do not know where to start when technology is the topic, do not worry, we have your back! Here are five IT tools that, when implemented correctly, can take your productivity to new heights, and help your firm stand out.

1. Virtual and Remote Capabilities (With Some Caveats)

Remember when the pandemic turned our dining rooms into new work desks? Virtual business deals are here to stay! Some businesspeople are now fully remote and look for robust remote options first when evaluating different firms. The last thing you want is to miss top talent because your technology has not kept up with industry standards!

However, this is not as easy as downloading any remote work software. Not all software is created equal! Make sure you are using tools that are SOC 2 certified, as well as HIPAA certified if you plan to work medical files: this will save you from ending up in a compliance nightmare.

The good news is that there are plenty of tools out there that meet these standards. Finding the right mix might feel like a game of Tetris, which is why Honorbound IT is here to help you fit the pieces together!

2. Backup and Disaster Recovery (BDR)

Let us picture a bleak hypothetical: ransomware hits your firm, and poof! All your digital files are gone, permanently. Talk about a disaster…

With a solid Backup and Disaster Recovery plan, you can rest easy knowing that the above hypothetical is impossible!

Whether it is a natural disaster or a cyberattack, your digital assets need protection. Robust BDR solutions will ensure you have backup copies of all your important files at any time.

3. Project Management and Knowledge Sharing Tools

Let us streamline some chaotic workflows! With project management and knowledge sharing tools, you can standardize processes and keep everyone on the same page: no more freestyling each file or losing track of vital information.

Project management software helps build templates for common processes, while knowledge management tools ensure everyone has access to the same information. This reduces the dreaded “newbie penalty” (which puts newer employees at a distinct disadvantage due to lack of information) and keeps your firm running like a well-oiled machine.

4. Partner with an IT Provider

Okay, this one is less of a tool, but bear with us! Let us face it, you did not go to college to become an IT person. Hiring a full IT department might seem like overkill, especially for a smaller firm. The solution? Hiring a qualified and specialized IT Provider!

The right IT team can manage all your technology needs, from setting up infrastructure to proactively troubleshooting any tech issues. This way, you can focus on what is most important – your firm!

Make sure you pick an IT Provider that already knows the ropes: you want a team that speaks your language and understands your compliance needs immediately!
