Wi-Fi is everywhere, and only when it’s not available (and you’re in a location where you cannot get cell service) do we realize just how much of a luxury it is to have a solid connection. You can give your team the solid wireless connection it deserves by carefully selecting where you place your organization’s router. Here are a few tips you can consider when placing your office’s wireless router.

It's a fact that computers generate heat. From the laptop fan whirring away on your desk to the massive arrays of servers powering cloud computing and AI, these machines require cooling to function optimally. As our reliance on the cloud expands, however, the sheer scale of this cooling requirement is transforming into a significant environmental and financial burden.

You might want to get as much life as possible out of your technology, but this is often counterproductive. While it might cost serious capital to invest in new computers and servers, even when your current equipment works “just fine,” there will come a day when “just fine” doesn’t cut it anymore. Your outdated hardware comes with all kinds of hidden costs that will slowly leech capital from your business and leave it worse off compared to if you just bought new tech.

The phone is a critical piece of business communications, but it has traditionally been a consistently stationary piece of technology for most of its existence. Basically, if you were anywhere but your desk, you couldn’t answer any important calls or listen to your messages.

Your business runs on its network, and when your network hardware isn’t running up to speed, it can have a significant impact on business operations. It’s also far from the most interesting topic, and other parts of your business—like the software that makes and manages the products or services you provide—likely takes up the spotlight. Here are some of the common networking solutions that are often neglected and why they should be a priority instead.

We’re at a weird point in the technology world (but honestly, when is it not at least a little convoluted?). Right now, modern technology has been slowly shifting between a few different technologies and consumers and businesses are stuck in the middle trying to figure out what to do and how to future-proof their hardware investments.

If you look at the loadout of ports on a new laptop or desktop and you are confused, we don’t blame you. Between awkward naming conventions for ports, a lack of education on the differences between these technologies, and brand new legislation for companies like Apple to ditch their proprietary technology to use something more standard, it can be daunting to make sure you get a device that connects to the other devices you already have.

We’re going to break down these new ports, from USB to Thunderbolt to HDMI, and help you make the right decisions before you purchase that new device.
