Going back to the office? Here are five major tech problems that lie ahead of you

Author(s): Cassandra Cooper

IT departments have had a hectic few months. With organizations across the globe switching to remote working overnight, the majority of IT professionals report that their workloads have increased significantly – by as much as 37%, according to recent research. And unfortunately for support desks, this might only be the beginning.
