Disaster Recovery Outsourcing Trends and Customer Experience 2023

Now, emerging from pandemic lockdowns, most businesses are retaining these remote work capabilities, even if they are to support a hybrid work model. Businesses are now more resilient, not just in facing another pandemic but in supporting remote work in the event of other natural or man-made disasters.
