Every educational institution in the country has the same question… How do we leverage technology to deliver a better-quality educational experience to our students while reducing overall costs? In this article, we’ll explore some of the IT solutions and the IT services that are providing an answer to that question.

How Educational Institutions are Harnessing IT Solutions and IT Services

    According to a 2016 report from CDW, 67 percent of school IT solutions are delivered fully or partially through the cloud. That’s up from 42 percent in 2014. From email, storage, and web hosting, to collaboration portals and specialized mobile learning (m-learning) solutions, schools around America are embracing the benefits of cloud computing at an unprecedented pace.

    Cybersecurity and Disaster Recovery

    Educational institutions need to protect their students, their staff, and their data. Unauthorized access to private data can harm the reputation of any school. A properly implemented security strategy should provide a safe environment for students and teachers to collaborate and share information.
