EUC applications should never evolve by accident; rather, there should be a defined strategy behind each and every aspect of EUC. After all, when the EUC experience doesn’t meet consumers’ expectations, they might be take it upon themselves to go out in search of their own solutions, which unfortunately can drive away business.
As we covered in a previous post, “What is End User Computing?” end-using computing allows workers more flexibility, better productivity and more access to creative stimuli. Yet, EUC is only successful when utilized correctly. EUC strategies should consider the fact that every user-controlled app should be monitored and supervised, unless they wish to compromise the safety of their company. Further, strategies should include all the tools users will need to carry out their tasks and work more productively. While EUC is a valuable tool, without a strategy backing it, it will not be sufficient enough to offer you the help you need.
What Customers Want
According to Arraya, customers are in search of several characteristics when it comes to EUC. First and foremost is consistency. End-users are seeking an experience that is flexible and tailored to their needs. Secondly, the average worker wants to be able to do their job from anywhere at any time of the day. Employees are seeking a work experience across devices, where they have the freedom to use them at home, on the go and in the office. Thirdly, end-users are more eager to troubleshoot their own issues rather than having to rely on an outside source. Things as simple as changing a password are tasks that end-users feel more and more empowered to do, freeing time up for the Service Desk to tackle more complex issues. Fourthly, employees want the devices they use to be secure. Finally, employees seek the best and newest when it comes to devices. While following the above list to a T might prove tricky for some businesses, having an EUC strategy that is consistent, flexible, and customizable will prove only to be beneficial to prospective consumers.
