IT Pro 20/20: Meet the companies leaving the office for good
The 15th issue of IT Pro 20/20 looks at the nature of operating a business in 2021
Welcome to issue 15 of IT Pro 20/20.
For this issue of 20/20, we wanted to address a problem that most businesses will face in 2021 - the return to the office.
You’ve likely seen that a handful of companies have taken the bold decision to close their offices for good and extend the remote working policies that have worked so well during lockdown. The jury is still out on whether this will lead to long-term success, but to better understand the thought process behind such a drastic approach, we’ve spoken to those companies taking the plunge.
Elsewhere we look at the best ways to measure success in a cloud-first business, what green cloud might mean for the industry, and the pros and cons of using Slack and Microsoft Teams for inter-company communication.
We hope you enjoy reading this month's issue. For more insight and advice, head to www.itpro.com.
