What devices do you need for a flexible office?

In the new, more flexible office, the one-size-fits-all approach rarely works. Instead, CIOs, CTOs and IT departments need to think about how they support new working practices, or even think about technology from a more activity-based point of view.

But there are now more choices than ever on which devices to choose and how to use them in your office in a way that will offer maximum flexibility to employees. From convertible laptops, traditional desktop packages or support for 'Bring Your Own Device' policies, there will be a range of options that work for your business.

The key is to look at the strengths of different platforms and devices, and decide what will work best for different groups of workers or specific needs.

In the flexible office, the laptop becomes the go-to computer. They’re affordable, reliable, powerful and robust, with a variety of screen sizes giving you options for different types of workers and their differing requirements. As size goes up, easy portability goes down, but they compensate for that by offering increased usability and having the kind of screen that can handle more complex tasks.

For some teams, laptops may not be the best option if they need to run demanding native applications. However, laptops also have the connectivity to work with external screens and peripherals, so shouldn’t be counted out - even for the most advanced power users.
