WELCOME TO THE BIG LEAGUES
Despite increasing network demands, growing businesses often don't have big IT departments. They need network equipment that helps them get the job done without distractions and it must accomplish that with simplicity, reliability, flexibility, connectivity, and limited resources of all kinds. Yet, nobody -- least of all the IT department in a growing business -- can afford to throw everything out and start over from scratch. Considerably more than half (62%) of smaller-than-enterprise company technology investment in 2021 is driven by technology end of life. And, according to a survey by Aruba, a Hewlett Packard Enterprise company, small businesses rated competitive edge as the primary driver for upgrading their network while medium businesses said bringing in new customers was theirs.
55% of U.S. small and medium businesses (SMBs) accelerated their investments in digital technologies.i
Scaling business growth upward to compete with larger businesses -- and maybe to grow in size, too -- requires expanding the network, meeting increased user demands, and upgrading security. Growing the network to support the company's goals presents five significant challenges:
· CONNECTIVITY · LIMITED IT STAFFING · SCALABILITY · SECURITY · SUPPORT

CONNECTIVITY

BECAUSE YOU SURE DON'T WANT TO HEAR "I CAN'T GET ONLINE!" AGAIN
Are your employees having trouble connecting with fast network speeds? Are you challenged with maintaining strong, consistent coverage? Now is the time to get better connectivity. By any measure, your network is under stress. You have more users, more throughput, more online applications, and more devices -- including new ones such as those on the Internet of Things (IoT). All of those are accompanied by network demands that outpace your current technology. Connectivity matters. Employees rely on the fastest network speed to get their work done. And it's your phone that rings when people can't get online at the speed they require.
Connectivity begins with a robust infrastructure. So, switch your switch: · Switches are super-high-speed transmission devices that
enable connected devices to share information and talk to each other. · They are vital building blocks to any network, with a major impact on system performance.

LIMITED IT STAFFING

TECHNOLOGY CAN SCALE. HUMANS, NOT SO MUCH.
No matter the size of your team, everyone needs to be ready to back up their colleagues. And "do more with less" is the operating assumption for any growing company, because not every business can have domain experts in every possible field.
This isn't a concern only for short-staffed IT departments. Historically, growth companies that fully employ technology reap big rewards. On average they earn two times more revenue per employee; they have four times the revenue growth annually; and they are almost three times more likely to create jobs.ii

Network technology can consume scarce resources. Aruba changes that with Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP):
· Automatically configures a new switch with custom predefined settings
· Permits quick deployment in a large-scale environment
· Eliminates most of the manual labor involved
Whether you're doing hybrid work, collaborating via video, or running digital events, your network is at the heart of your business. ZTP offers simple, fast, and error-free deployment.

SCALABILITY

CONNECTIVITY LIMITED IT STAFFING SCALABILITY SECURITY SUPPORT

BE READY FOR CURVEBALLS
Are your IT professionals tired of hearing, "Is the Wi-Fi down again"? The number of devices and new connections is increasing faster than your network's capabilities.
Scalability is a must. A rip-and-replace approach is expensive, including business downtime; lost revenue; time for implementation, optimization, and training; and costs associated with hardware, software, and resources to support the transition. Not to mention the frustration of working with fractious equipment that's almost, but not quite, fast enough.

Look for smart and seamless Wi-Fi that powers productivity for employees and mobile experiences for customers wherever they connect.

· Reduce the burden on IT by scaling simply and economically
· Reduce overhead spending and spread out IT costs by moving from a CapEx to an OpEx model
· Offer flexibility and investment protection
· Remedy regular Wi-Fi complaints with insights that help networks self-heal
· Tap into the latest, ultra-high-speed gigabit performance
· Boost network performance without disrupting day-to-day operations
· Employ Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) to make deployment simpler, faster, and reduce manual errors
· Provide insights and suggest solutions to reduce time spent troubleshooting
· Resolve complex issues with flexible AI and machine learning tools that lessen the impact on your network performance

SECURITY

ERRORS IN THE FIELD
Security concerns abound. For good reason: There is a hacker attack every 39 seconds.iii
Total cost for cybercrime committed globally will reach $6 trillion by 2021. The average data breach can cost a growth business $3.9 million, and 43% of hackers target growth businesses.
Any IT professional knows that networks are vulnerable to a host of threats, including those from innocent or malicious insiders, hackers, malicious code, and much, much more. Don't let yours be among the victims.

An Aruba survey reports that 76% of respondents use firewalls to prevent cybersecurity attacks, 72% use endpoint security, and 57% use a service provider. Protect what matters most. Ensure that only authorized people can access your private information.
· Secure your network and applications from attack from Day 0 with Aruba.
· Use Wi-Fi 6 and embrace IoT to build a competitive edge without increasing your risk.
· Authenticate users to ensure only the right individuals are accessing your network and your data.
· Control access to various parts of the network.

Protect your network from a host of threats, ranging from innocent insiders to malicious hackers, using Aruba 9000 Series Gateway.
· Separate IoT device, guest, and employee traffic to protect the production network and minimize attack surfaces.

SUPPORT

COVER YOUR BASES
In a growing business, you need to run the business, not wrestle with technology.
IT departments would prefer to spend their time developing cool new features, or perhaps designing more-robust systems that connect business silos. Everyone is short on time, resources, and money -- not to mention patience. No one wants to be interrupted by an unhappy user who cannot access the network drive, whose teleconference call keeps dropping out, or who is hopelessly confused about the equipment the company supplied.
Make your network work for you.
