Advanced Communications Technology in a Rugged Tablet
Mobile computing has evolved from a specialty to a requirement for productive, task-oriented and customer-focused employees. As an increasing number of businesses deploy office applications to their mobile workforce, they realize that selecting the right computer to support the task is critical to the goal of putting the right person in the right place at the right time with the right information. To a large extent this objective requires mobile computing that incorporates advanced communications technology, including access to broadband internet, Wi-Fi service for local area networks including hot spots, Bluetooth connections for wireless connections to peripherals, and global positioning to aid in going from location to location. Mobile workers also need communications tools that effectively interface with an array of remotely accessible company CRM and ERP systems in support of the mobile work and are able to withstand harsh environments and rough treatment. Rugged tablets have changed how and where employees work as well as increased their ability to connect and share information with colleagues, customers, and partners.
