In today’s fast-paced business landscape digital transformation has become an essential driver of success for businesses of all sizes. The days of it being considered a buzzword are long behind us. In fact, it’s now a necessary consideration to make sure that your business remains competitive and relevant. At KubeNet we understand the importance of digital transformation. So today we’re sharing our top benefits of digital transformation as seen across businesses of all sizes, across all sectors.
What is digital transformation?
Digital transformation is the process of using digital technologies to fundamentally change how your businesses operates, interact with its customers, and delivers value. Essentially you’ll look at things with fresh eyes. For example, you can reimagine business models, processes, and products all with a view to leverage digital technology and data to create new value. In short, it simplifies, streamlines and enhances your day-to-day operations. So not only will your customers benefit, your team will too!
So how exactly could digital transformation work for you? Here are our top ten benefits of digital transformation for businesses of all sizes:
It improves your operations
Cloud computing platforms and services, cloud storage, AI, machine learning, automation, and other modern technologies help you streamline every aspect of your day-to-day business operations. This helps businesses speed up their response time to marketplace changes and customer demands. And it helps your employees perform their job duties more easily and swiftly. All this can positively impact your company’s bottom line.
It helps accelerate business growth
Expediting internal processes saves your company valuable time, which enables you to create new products and services faster, attract new customers, and focus on other revenue-building initiatives. For example, using a managed service provider like KubeNet frees up your time by streamlining your IT. Also key is using data more strategically—thanks to intelligent, AI-enabled analysis— allowing your business to plan change with strategic business insights.
It enables flexible, remote, and hybrid work
Your business now has several digital tools at disposal to allow your employees to work from home securely and efficiently. These tools include cloud platforms and services, unified communication systems, mobile devices, and virtual desktop technology. As more workers look for flexible work options, these changes will help you attract and keep top talent.
It optimises operational costs
Moving from analogue work to automated, cloud-based workflows will save you from maintaining or replacing costly data storage assets like physical servers and data centres. Scaling up your IT resources to meet increasing business, workload, and storage need is simpler and can be less costly because it requires fewer physical assets. Again, you’re not alone here. You can deploy co-managed IT support from our team of experts to bolster your in-house team. Or fully outsource your IT management to KubeNet to allow you to focus on other business priorities.
It unifies business communications
Managing your internal communications and collaboration from a single cloud-based platform—what’s known as unified communication—makes it easier for your employees and teams to work together in real time, thus increasing productivity. A unified communication system typically includes many productivity tools and capabilities, such as email, chat, video conferencing, voice and video calls, file sharing and version control, screen sharing, and calendars and scheduling.
It empowers employees
Equipped with more intelligent, efficient tools, your employees have an easier time completing their designated tasks. Giving your employees access to technology that lets them work more productively helps increase their job satisfaction, which helps increase your overall retention. For example, our Kube Teams Connect unified communications solution allows teams to collaborate and communicate safely and effectively, no matter where they’re working from.
It helps engage your customers more deeply
Part of digital transformation involves adjusting the way you interact with your customers and improving the customer service experience. Reviewing this part of your business allows you to recognising that different customers prefer to engage in different ways. Many businesses use this process to supplement their customer service. For example, with call centres, email, text updates, social media accounts, chatbot support, and self-service resources.
It enhances your security
Automating security patches, updates, monitoring, and logging helps you strengthen and streamline your security management process. That’s why we offer enhanced threat detection solutions to help you secure your data and networks. We can also support compliance efforts, providing the guidance you need to abide by industry and government regulations.
It improves resiliency and agility
Cloud services help increase your business continuity and give your IT team peace of mind. Automating the disaster recovery process and backing up business data in the cloud means faster recovery times. Plus, the enhanced agility means your business can adapt quicker. This allows your business to plan ahead rather than reacting to day-to-day challenges.
It drives sustainability
Less physical equipment leads to less hardware in landfills and less use of electricity. And more remote work leads to fewer cars on the road. All of this helping towards your own sustainability goals.
