Nuremberg IT company combines software and hardware package and data center in a personalized solution

Nuremberg, April 09, 2020. With its new Workplace as a Service Enterprise solution, my Workplace GmbH from Nuremberg provides a smart IT concept that combines hardware and software with a data center solution and decisively relieves IT departments in companies. Thus, my Workplace enables customers to have a customized, secure IT workplace and switch to a home office within 48 hours.

Put together a laptop, mouse and the like according to individual needs, select the required software programs and purchase provisioning, hosting and support at the same time: Nuremberg-based my Workplace GmbH offers this all-round service. The company specializes in the rentable, modularly configurable Workplace as a Service (WaaS) and impresses customers with a flexible, rentable IT workstation solution that is ready for use in the company or home office just 48 hours after the order is placed. The WaaS developer’s product portfolio is aimed at different company sizes: with the small all-in-one digital workplace package for small to medium-sized companies or the Workplace Enterprise solution for corporations and medium-sized companies with 100 or more employees.

Outsourcing standard IT tasks in order to create free space

“IT specialists in corporate groups and medium-sized companies are actually supposed to focus on strategic tasks such as digitizing the business model. In everyday life, however, they are often called upon for routine activities such as the lifecycle management of hardware or complex client administration,” explains Manuel Wagner, CEO of my Workplace GmbH. “With our WaaS concept, IT experts can not only outsource their standard tasks and create free space for further digitization in their company, but also quickly and conveniently provide several new IT workstations and save costs.”

In the company or at home: to an individual workstation at the touch of a button

The new Workplace Enterprise solution from my Workplace GmbH includes an intuitive web configurator that digitizes the entire sales funnel and significantly simplifies it with standardized migration processes. With just a few clicks, customers select the IT workplace components such as PC, monitor, mouse, etc., after which the workplace is implemented and put into operation within 48 hours. “With the my Workplace Enterprise solution, we were able to fully set up a home workstation for our employees and thus quickly transition to a home office, all without any restrictions or loss of productivity for colleagues,” explains a spokesperson for the Institute for Behavioral Therapy, Behavioral Medicine and Sexuology (IVS). In addition to providing the hardware and software, my Workplace also takes care of integrating the employee’s email addresses and setting up the VPN connection, which allows all services of the professional network to be used from home or on the road.

Full transparency for more cost efficiency

In the Workplace Enterprise solution, decision-makers always have an overview of all PC workstations and their individual components on an intuitive dashboard. This enables them to identify potential savings, minimize downtime, and make informed decisions thanks to comprehensive reporting and analysis functions. “Above all, the clear dashboard view and ease of use helped us put together the right IT package for our employees,” the IVS spokesperson continued. “We also appreciate the expert advice provided by my Workplace IT support.”

Focus on data security

“Our goal is not only to provide our customers with a fully configured IT workplace, but also to ensure the security of their data,” explains Eduard Horn, Head of Marketing at my Workplace GmbH. Therefore, in addition to setting up the software package, my Workplace offers a data center solution as part of the rentable IT workplace. “In accordance with the DSGVO, all our customers’ data is encrypted daily and backed up in our data center in Germany. In the event of a failure or in the event of damage, these can be restored in a short time.”
