Does your business have a list a long list of priorities to accomplish before the end of the year? Even though a lot of businesses are struggling with technology issues, updating equipment usually isn’t at the top of their priority list. A recent survey reported that U.S employers are losing up to 1.8 trillion due to outdated tech. If you’ve been putting off updating your infrastructure, it’s time to consider what your outdated tech might be costing you.
Time Spent Troubleshooting
How much time do your employees spend troubleshooting technology every week? Do meetings start on time? Are conference calls difficult to connect to? Although these things might seem minor in the workday, they can add up to a sustainable amount of wasted time. The long-term success of your business depends on high-productivity levels, and investing in a functional tech infrastructure shouldn’t be something you put off until next year.
Energy and Productivity
What technology problems are your employees regularly pouring unnecessary energy into? Many employees spend large amounts of time in their workday navigating through slow loading times, faulty internet connections, and collaboration issues. People are spending too much energy trying to get a piece of equipment to work, and it leaves less room for employees to do the job they were hired for. Trying to make dysfunctional technology come together right before a client meeting is a stressful experience. When employees have to spend additional time fixing technology issues, they aren’t able to give your business their best work.
Employee Loyalty
You might think that outdated conference rooms won’t affect your employee retention rate, but it can absolutely be a factor in someone’s resignation. If your team is constantly facing the stress of faulty conference room equipment, it could impact their desire to stay with your business. By investing in updated technology, you show every single member of your team that you value them and the work they do every day.
