Other potential cost savings might include conducting staff training and collaboration with third parties via Raspberry Pi-enabled IT, saving travel and other expenses for your company. If fewer workers are in an office at any one time, it becomes possible to start by renting smaller (and cheaper) premises or opt for a co-working space, a major consideration given that rents are a large part of any company’s expenses. With employees working regularly from home, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, a startup or other small business has an opportunity to reduce the often considerable costs of leasing office space. One of the many benefits of this is to allow your company to buy the bare minimum of potentially expensive IT equipment for their offices (for example, equipment to support high-end IT functions, such as running servers). Combined with remote access, the Pi can offer cost-effective ways in which to fulfil your office IT requirements.įor example, staff can be issued with a Pi rather than a desktop computer to allow them to work from home and remotely access company assets from their own device. With its low unit cost, the Pi allows companies with limited means to maximize their budget. Many businesses have demonstrated that, with a little ingenuity, the Pi can be used in lots of creative ways as a powerful business asset. But just because this credit card-sized board is cheap, it doesn’t mean that it’s underpowered. The latest generation of Raspberry Pi, the Raspberry Pi model 4, retails for around $35, a fraction of the cost of a normal PC. One of the attractions of the Raspberry Pi, and one of the reasons for this former startup’s impressive success, is its price.
Raspberry Pi is a series of small board computers developed by Cambridge’s own Raspberry Pi Foundation, just around the corner from RealVNC’s offices. Raspberry Pi and remote access in the office In this post we’ll examine ways in which combining the Raspberry Pi with a remote access solution can allow small businesses and startups to make the most of limited budgets and offer them opportunities to drive their growth.
We decided that our experience was worth sharing to help other entrepreneurs and startup founders benefit from these affordable tools to boost their business. As an idea of their popularity, sales of the Pi reached 19 million by March 2018.Īs providers of a remote access solution built into Raspberry Pi’s operating system, we had the chance to talk with many of its users and heard about some really innovative use cases.
