3)    Business Process – Value-added solutions can be deployed into Ricoh’s devices directly to support business processes. Additionally, customised processes can be created to optimise workflow and enhance workstyle.

4)    Cloud – Includes connectivity to the cloud as a standard support to more advanced productivity. It has standard browser technology and a multitude of cloud connectors, enabling complete access to cloud services.

The ever-changing work environment compels businesses to adapt to a workstyle that will help them remain competitive.

SMEs and individuals will find this especially beneficial as they can edit, save, store, access data and present their ideas easily anytime, anyplace and anywhere, all the while being on the go. When a suite of Ricoh products are synced using the RICOH Smart Device Connector mobile app, the app acts as a central control to navigate documents at a click of a button.

“In this day and age, information is king. It is great to see how the landscape of technology has vastly transformed in the last few decades, shifting the paradigm in work cultures. The new workstyle allows businesses to get their message across faster and be one step ahead of changing trends. To meet the growing demands businesses encounter, we have put together the Workstyle Innovation to make working anywhere and effectively, a reality,” shared Nick Tan, General Manager of Marketing of Ricoh Malaysia Sdn.
