INTELLIGENT WORKPLACE, 3.2.2. A NEW DIMENSION If there is one notion making its way around business circles, it is the notion of “office”. From a fully-equipped fixed physical station, the office is now any place from which you can work to boost productivity and sometimes it is not even an office. Of course, the boom in mobility has a lot to do with it. These new user needs require a choice of products and adapted accessories, ready for use, the “zero touch”, enrolment, and MDM solutions for secure efficient deployment supporting hyper-personalisation with autonomous users and transparent integration.

Econocom Products & Solutions acts as an integrator of digital solutions to meet the needs of customers and simplify the daily lives of users.
