Welcome to our May 2016 newsletter.
In this edition we look at our engagement with East of England Co-op. Our case study discusses how the installation of Mutiny has given better visibility and supported the team in managing their 150+ locations.
We have a number of articles this month. The first centres around home automation, its advantages and the considerations you need to take before you jump in. The second looks at the benefits of monitoring solutions to retailers. How they can be used for more than detecting network issues and actually have positive effects on the customer experience. Finally we look at how modern monitoring can be used to support businesses on the move, without the cost of extra personnel.
As usual if you have any questions or would like to talk to us about how Mutiny can help you to pro-actively monitor your technology then feel free to get in touch.

On the road - Mobile monitoring for events and exhibitions: Exhibitions and trade shows have become a key part of many businesses’ calendars. However modern exhibition stands can potentially feature dozens of devices, from laptops, tablets and phones to smart devices designed specifically for events. Traditionally the monitoring of these devices would involve the presence and costs of a dedicated IT person, however modern monitoring solutions and connected stands take away this added expense and allow you to remotely monitor and report on devices.
