With the Coronavirus continuing to impact people around the world, companies have been forced to move to support a remote workforce.  We've talked to many customers that didn't have work-from-home capabilities, or even had policies against teleworking, suddenly forced to enable working at home in a matter of days.  Projects have gone from business enablement to business survival, cutting spending in order to avoid cutting staff.    

At Opkalla, our top priority is the health and safety of employees, customers, partners, and communities.  This is why we have shifted our focus to helping companies reduce their IT expenses so they can be in the best position to recover from the economic impacts of COVID.  What we have learned in recent weeks are common themes across IT departments that companies commonly share the same opportunities for cost savings.  Many times the ability to reduce IT costs is simple as renegotiating a contract, or analyzing licensing opportunities. In some cases their desperate need to reduce costs enables more disruptive technology changes and savings.  All our customers in one way or another are embracing new ideas and technologies that they wouldn't have otherwise considered pre-COVID.

Many companies are no longer talking about what they're going to do after COVID, rather they're talking about what they're not going to do.  Old company habits, cultures, and traditions are changing.  Leaders are reflecting on how they can capitalize on these unprecedented changes to transform their business for the better.

At Opkalla, we are committed to being customer relationship focused.  We are your trusted technology advisors, unbiased, and enabling positive change in your business.  We are here to support you.  With more than 40 years of domain expertise in the industries we serve, we are here to help you adjust to what's next.  Reach out to us and ask how we can help.
