Over the past 15 years, companies have experimented with SaaS applications, taken advantage of the abundance of cheap compute and storage, and migrated desktop workloads to the cloud, but have yet to achieve digital transformation. At an event organized by NetEvents on multicloud, experts agreed that we are on the verge of a generational change in IT driven by business needs. The revolution will finally see the traditional data center model retire as software is replaced by highly distributed, high-performance, cloud-native applications. But the biggest challenge in the battle for the future remains the complexity of building networks fit for the cloud…

Waste of time looking for documentation, if it can be found, overwriting of files, duplication of documents, lack of security… These are some of the main problems derived from the lack of control over a company’s documents, from invoices, delivery notes, contracts, licenses and permits, to passwords, business cards, and tax documents, among many others. The risks of the lack of an optimal document management system can go further to lead to poor analytical capacity, communication errors and ineffective remote work in the organization. Nothing can be done to change what has already happened, but much can be done to change what is…

The digital transformation of an SME is today one of the processes that arouses the most interest in most business sectors. According to a study by Market Research for BBVA, published in 2017, 60% of Spanish companies consider digitization essential to obtain greater profits and more success in their businesses. However, the term digital transformation is often confused and businessmen believe that it implies little more than using Social Networks or having a website. What is clear is that we must adapt to the new form of consumption and get where our client is. If we are not at the same level, it will be…

Sustainable development consists of satisfying the needs that we have in the present without putting at risk the ability of future generations to do the same, as well as guaranteeing a balance between economic growth, social well-being and biodiversity conservation. The concept dates back to 1987. It appeared for the first time in the Brundtland report in which it warned about the impact that bad economic practices, industrial practices and globalization could have on the environment. Many of the problems we face, such as climate change , social inequalities, garbage, hunger or water scarcity, can only be solved if we all become aware of the current situation and if we…

Ambition at work can be a double-edged sword . The characteristic of an ambitious person is that, being aware of their work motivations , desires and goals, they have the ability to materialize them, overcoming challenges and challenges.  In the professional field , ambitious people (as long as they have a healthy ambition) are very attractive profiles, since they have high performance and are usually very results-oriented, which naturally benefits the organization.  Ambition can sometimes be a double-edged sword , it can already have negative connotations , but a priori it is a quality, since it is the engine that allows us to leave the comfort zone (the one in which we move…

One of the tools that has revolutionized the field of human resources is gamification , that is, the use of games with the aim of training and/or developing certain skills. Octalysis is a gamification system that lays the foundations to make any game (or intervention that seeks to arouse action in our team members) a success.  What is gamification in human resources When we talk about gamification in human resources we refer to the union of two apparently distant universes such as video games and the business ecosystem.  The aim of Octalysis is to use the social elements , the techniques and the motivation that…

HR experts and people recruiting new employees are very sensitive to soft skills and capabilities that we often overlook (or don’t put as much effort into highlighting). These are the so-called “ soft skills ”: those skills defined by our behavior according to our way of understanding the various social codes, and according to our attitudes and expressions in society. What are social abilities The social integration of each person depends largely on these skills, which are crucial not only for personal well-being but also for a favorable work environment, quality of work and agility in conflict resolution . But not everyone naturally has good social skills. There are people who…

WhatsApp is nowadays consolidated as one of the essential tools for doing business, because its simplicity, its multiple functionalities and the fact that it is free, make this instant messaging app an excellent option for managing clients or for communication internal to work teams. However, despite the enormous benefits that WhatsApp offers , it also sometimes generates inconveniences of different kinds that become a headache. For example, we previously talked about how to use WhatsApp from multiple devices at the same time , because doing it from the app itself is not easy or effective. Now, this time we want to address another of the most common…
