Does Your Nonprofit Need an Office?

Community IT CEO Johan Hammerstrom runs through the three highest priorities for nonprofits that want to work remotely and need the IT support to do that.Community IT is seeing a huge increase in inquiries from nonprofits looking to downsize entirely and permanently from the expenses of an office that they no longer need. But without a physical office, do you need different IT support? The answer is yes, and luckily new tools and IT management processes allow entirely remote work force to be supported entirely remotely, nationally, no matter where you are working from. Our colleagues like to call this “flexible” work, because it can happen from home, from a coffee shop, while you are traveling, even back in a hybrid office at a borrowed desk. If you are considering going fully remote, or have gone remote but are worried about the implications of that on your IT, this podcast can help you get started assessing your new needs.Key Takeaways:Device managementHave you updated your Acceptable Use Policy lately? New telephony optionsIf you are already using Teams, for example, you can add on phone service licenses and keep all your calling in one place. Cybersecurity check-upThe attacks on identity and attempts to con you through spoofed emails, phishing attacks, and wire transfer fraud keep increasing.
