Ongoing Market Trends:

Trend No. 1: Hardware-Based Cybersecurity

Cybersecurity is paramount for small business owners. Beyond being aware of various threats like malware, phishing, and ransomware, understanding the best security practices is crucial. Hardware-based security is a key approach, minimizing the attack surface and severely limiting potential access points for hackers. Modern cyber threats demand a comprehensive defense that spans application, software, firmware, and hardware levels.

Business-grade PCs, equipped with hardware-rooted security technologies, provide a robust defense against invisible firmware attacks and go beyond traditional threat detection methods. This end-to-end security solution safeguards PCs at every level, protecting both employees and data.

Trend No. 2: Performance

Consider the performance capabilities of your business PCs. Employees can lose valuable work time waiting for older computers to boot up. High-performance, responsive business-grade PCs, such as those powered by the latest Intel vPro® Essentials platform, optimize productivity and multitasking. These PCs dynamically adjust processing based on actual usage, ensuring fast system performance with minimal interruptions.

Investing in PCs tailored to the demands of business enhances employee satisfaction and retention. A 2021 McKinsey study found that positive employee experiences increase the likelihood of employees staying with a company by eight times.

Trend No. 3: Rapid Connectivity

Modern collaboration and connectivity rely on Wi-Fi and cable technologies. Technologies like Wi-Fi 6E (Gig+) and Thunderbolt™ significantly enhance business productivity by offering high-speed data transfers, cable management, and flexibility for external port access. Rapid connectivity, whether through Wi-Fi 6E, 4G LTE, 5G, or Thunderbolt™ technology, enables efficient resource access, better customer support, and more effective collaboration.

Trend No. 4: Mobility and Remote Workforce

The shift to remote and hybrid work is now commonplace due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Employees favoring the flexibility of remote/hybrid work require mobile-friendly, durable, and high-performance PCs, along with secure and reliable remote access. Business-grade PCs based on the Intel vPro chipset Essentials platform come with built-in hardware-based security features and remote management capabilities. This allows centralized management of your PC fleet, providing patches, upgrades, and troubleshooting whether your team is on-site or remote. This ensures productivity regardless of the work location, supported by built-in remote PC management and security features.
