As the pandemic circled the globe it quickly became evident that organizations needed to react rapidly to enable their teams to begin working remotely.

As the world begins to assimilate the new reality of remote working into daily life, 我们得问问自己, can things go back to the way they were? Or, has all that we’ve been through opened the door to the possibility of a new normal, 也许更正常.

当需要 商业continuity became real, companies were forced to react quickly to enable their teams to work from home and maintain something that resembled ‘normal’ in their daily work life. The companies that succeeded in a seamless transition to the new remote working situation sought out a solution where employees could easily download an app and have 21st century communications and collaboration at their fingertips. 对有些人来说，这很容易.

Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise was ready when the call came. We jumped into action with a 商业continuity offering that has provided 成千上万的猎人 of Alcatel-Lucent Rainbow™ 免费保管许可证. This program has enabled ALE customers to quickly implement the remote working environments that they needed to keep employees safe and continue to operate through this challenging time.

Following are just some of the types of organisations around the world leveraging the Rainbow platform to ensure 商业continuity during these troubling times:

• An official IT partner of a major European city requested 10,1000张帮助公民的许可证, companies, visitor, and students, 所有人都住在城市里, 更好地与城市官员接触

• A South Asian National Army is utilizing 1,000 licenses to enhance its internal communications

• A South African research and development facility have requested more than 3,000 licences to ensure 商业continuity during the coming months

• A local government branch of a leading European city with over one and a half million constituents have 2,000 licences to enable staff to work remotely during the recent pandemic 

• A major South American household electronics retailer have implemented more than 2,500 licences to facilitate remote working and ensure employees can continue to work from safe locations

• A school district in North America have requested approximately 1,000 licences to continue to deliver remote classes to students

• A hospital in South America is deploying 1,000 licences across all departments to offer more secure, effective, and manageable internal communication processes

With more than 50% of ALE employees—which quickly escalated to 100%—working from home prior to the pandemic, we had the experience and expertise to help our customers respond rapidly and keep their businesses running in this new work from home (#WFH) environment.

While it’s an understatement to say that ‘much’ has changed over the last few months, as organizations around the globe undertake the task of re-opening, 我们得问问, has remote working become YOUR ‘new normal’?
