AnyDesk Home office

The increasing spread of  Coronavirus (COVID-19) is forcing employees of many companies to work from their home offices. Software company AnyDesk, offers its users comprehensive support for working from home; including a continuously updated website with useful information for the optimal home office set-up.

Charlotte, NC,USA; Stuttgart,Germany – “Working from home used to be the exception to the rule; today it is becoming the new norm”, says Philipp Weiser, founder and managing director of remote desktop provider, AnyDesk Software GmbH. To protect employees and help curb the spread of the Coronavirus, many companies have now ordered employees to set up and work from home offices. For companies that have already established working from home as an integral part of their corporate culture, this changeover to a fully remote workforce has not caused drastic changes or problems. On the other hand, employers who have not had a remote workforce culture before now are facing a new set of challenges in creating the optimal technical set-up for their employees. AnyDesk Software GmbH, one of the leading providers of remote desktop solutions, offers users comprehensive home office support.

“A lot of companies are focused on ensuring successful remote working options for their employees. We can see this from the huge increase in access to our software. We are receiving a large number of inquiries from customers and companies around the world looking for reliable, user-friendly, and secure software solutions for home offices. With our easily accessible information and comprehensive support, I’m grateful for the opportunity to meet the needs of our users in this difficult time, ”says Weiser.

Technical requirements for productivity and teamwork from home

For many employees, working from home can be challenging in terms of staying focused and productive in a ‘non-business’ environment. A lack of in-person direct contact with colleagues also poses new issues in terms of exchanging ideas and ensuring alignment. That means it is essential for companies to support employees working from home by providing communication tools and software which will allow for successful collaboration.

Remote Desktop software offers optimal solutions for digital collaboration. Exchanging data, working together on documents, and communicating with the team become a digital walk to a colleague’s desk. AnyDesk’s software is just 3.2 MB, quick to download and ready to use on any home computer. AnyDesk is scalable for all user needs, can be used on any operating system and meets the highest security standards thanks to the transmission secured with TLS 1.2 technology.
