The iPad has been touted by reviewers as an excellent way to consume technology. The benefits for productivity in the workplace have been expressed as well, just not as frequently as the advantages associated with entertainment. Using an iPad for office work, in this context, means using it in addition to a more powerful computer as most people will never use an iPad exclusively at work. Here are the top ten advantages of using an iPad for office work.
1. Portability: The biggest advantage of using an iPad at work is that the device is portable and can be used anywhere. This applies to both the WiFi and 3G+WiFi models. The iPad is completely portable and there are dozens of accessories to help make computing power even more portable. You can get cases, keyboards and other devices to make your office work portable.
2. Cloud Computing: The iPad is generally used with productivity apps where the data is stored in a remote location. The benefit here is that the information created and edited on the iPad can be accessed from anywhere and by anyone with proper access. This is great news for people who travel or visit out of office locations and need to make information available on an immediate basis.
3. Enhanced Communication: For those who value and rely on constant communication for their jobs, the enhance communication options on the iPad make it simple to stay connected. There are a myriad of apps that make it possible to read email, monitor and post to social networking apps including Twitter, Facebook and others. If communication is a big part of your office work, then the iPad will definitely be a great device for you.
4. Low Time Overhead: The iPad turns on immediately and unlike a traditional computer there is no warm up time required. Apps are also loaded immediately. There is a huge time savings involved when using an iPad.
5. Cheap Apps: Most of the productivity apps that you would need to do office work on the iPad are far less expensive than if you purchased similar software for your laptop or desktop computer. Therefore, one of the advantages is that at least for certain tasks, you can do them cheaper.
6. Scheduling and Calendar at Your Fingertips: Saving time and being efficient are important in office work, right? Well with the iPad, you have immediate access to your calendar and schedule. Whether you are in the car, in the office or at a coffee shop, you can get to the information you need.
7. No Lost Files: The iPad comes with autosave. This means that you will never suffer a loss of information because you forgot to save your file. With cloud computing and the iPad autosave feature for all documents, you will find that you are not wasting valuable time recreating information and files that should never have been lost in the first place.
8. Simple to Use: Anyone can use an iPad. If you have staff members who do inventory constantly or just need a few simple touch screen apps, then you can use iPads to replace traditional computers. As said above, most people will not use an iPad exclusively. But for some people, the simplicity of the iPad makes it a good option for a primary office work computing device.
