The Mobileworker interface allows the user to choose from a list of available access options ranging from dial-up, broadband, Ethernet connection (e.g. hotels, hot desk or client site), cellular access or wireless/Wi-Fi services – whether these are provided directly by Tiscali or an alternative provider, at any specific location.
The application then augments out of the office connectivity in a way, according to Tiscali, that no other service provider can. It takes away the complexities of managing a mobile workforce by providing a “single-source” user interface whilst bringing together all the management elements of a true remote working solution including: central administration, security policy management, and transparent, predictable and controllable costs
The launch is in partnership with Fiberlink, an innovator in secure mobile workforce solutions. The Tiscali-Fiberlink partnership is expected to extend to further countries served by the Tiscali Group in the coming months.
Nathan Francis, general manager of Tiscali Business Services says: “The mobile workforce represents about 20% of pan-European flexible workers in mid-size companies, and we see a strong demand for mobile broadband solutions. The combination of Tiscali’s expertise in business broadband and flexible working solutions with Fiberlink’s experience in mobile technology will result in a compelling package for business customers.”
