With the mass transition to at-home workers, customers are forced to quickly adjust or even overhaul their network policies and technology to prepare. With many remote staff that will likely continue to stay working at home, how do you talk about the short and long term network strategy?

1. Preparing Your Customer’s Network for the Work
from Home Transition

2. THE METRICS
https://www.fundera.com/resources/working-from-home-statistics
73%
By 2028, one study estimates
that 73% of all departments
will have remote workers.
74%
About 74% of CFOs surveyed
by Gartner expect some of
their employees who were
forced to work from home
because of the COVID-19
coronavirus pandemic to
continue working remotely
after the pandemic ends.
$44B
Employers offering at
least part-time
telecommuting flexibility
collectively save $44
billion each year.
86%
Even more, 86% of
employees say they’re
most productive when
they work alone—devoid
of distractions like
inefficient meetings, office
gossip, or loud office
spaces.
-50%
In a Stanford University
study, employers who offered
a work from home option had
employee turnover rates fall
by over 50%
According to Gartner, about 25% of those surveyed expect 10% of their employees will remain remote, 17%
expect 20% will remain remote, 4% expect 50% will remain remote, and 2% expect over 50% of employees now
working from home to permanently work from home after the pandemic subsides.

3. Even global enterprises
don’t have the staff nor
the resources to invest
in a team internally for
major at-home network
rollouts
For many organizations,
CIOs and leadership is
tasked regularly to take
on new technology
challenges, making
pivoting difficult without
a strategic partner
When staff goes “home”,
it becomes more
difficult to manage
network access and
ensure security across
the board
Tracking users across
the country, let alone
the globe, is hard
enough. Trying to roll
out updates, changes,
etc is time consuming
and complicated
Nonstop performance
monitoring across the
network is tasking on
the team and time
consuming to interpret
the data that comes
from it

5. SOLVING FOR THE WORK FROM HOME STRUGGLE
Policy Management
Design policies around data centers or branch offices
differently than work from home users
Change and update policies across the network from a
central management point
Create traffic priorities based on corporate traffic over Netflix
or gaming

6. SOLVING FOR THE WORK FROM HOME STRUGGLE
Security
Connecting to the corporate network over home WiFi
can create security vulnerabilities
Monitor security traffic and create policy adjustments as
needed
SD-WAN passes traffic securely to the network to ensure
adherence to security policies

7. SOLVING FOR THE WORK FROM HOME STRUGGLE
Performance & Stability
Without SD-WAN, it can be difficult to manage performance on a
network convoluted with everyone home
Keep the kids from stealing all the bandwidth and
making calls or video choppy
Prioritizing enterprise traffic like Zoom or RingCentral
can help eliminate poor performance

8. SOLVING FOR THE WORK FROM HOME STRUGGLE
Speed of Deployment
Rolling out a brand new network solution like SD-WAN
can be intimidating and time consuming
QOS designed a proprietary solution, inDeploy, and can
roll out new home users at the speed of 1,000 a day
With a very low rate of error, your customers can rest that their
new network solution is being rolled out accurately

9. NETWORK DEPLOYMENT WITH INDEPLOY
The QOS inDeploy AI is the
central point for initiating,
configuring, and deploying
network solutions to our
customers. inDeploy is a tool
designed from the ground-up
to automate the processes
behind deploying network
hardware like SD-WAN devices
including distribution facility
processing, technical

Customer is moving their staff during COVID-19 time period to full work-from-home. With around 9,000 employees
moving to a remote work status, the customer needs to ensure their network security is in place, users get the
same performance with their at-home service provider, and all systems are operating and manageable remotely.

12. CONNECTED EDGE
QOS is enabled to monitor a number of SD-WAN solutions depending
on the customer’s preference. With over 30,000 edges deployed, our
SD-WAN capabilities are numerous.
SD-WAN
We support the monitoring integration of on-premises switches and
routers that support any number of edge devices. The QOS team
monitors these devices remotely and provides visibility through
Concourse.
SWITCHES AND ROUTERS
Network redundancy can easily be achieved with a Cradlepoint addition
to the network. QOS will monitor redundancy devices and ensure they’re
functioning in the event they need to be activated
REDUNDANCY
Brand edges today often have WAPs onsite that need network
integration. QOS will integrate those into into the Intelligent Network
Platform for complete monitoring insight.
WAPS
QOS manages edge network devices from within our monitoring platform, the Intelligent Network
Platform. inDevice includes the monthly management of these devices.
