“ The future is clearly more in favour of remote setups – that’s why I built my company 100% remote”
Darren kingman
CEO at Root Digital
As more businesses move towards remote working and hybrid setups, and freelancers choose their kitchen table over a 2-hour commute, it’s becoming increasingly important for a whole range of people to consider everything from their desk and office chair, through to the software they use to stay connected.
The Remote Office Guide exists as a key resource to help people consider the best options for them.
Don’t get left behind in this shift towards a more balanced lifestyle for you and your teams, and keep an eye open for our latest articles discussing everything you need to remain at the forefront of remote working.
Work remotely in style and comfort
The quality of desk, software and hardware that you use everyday matters.
As a team of people who have been working remotely for over a decade, we’ve been there when it comes to that horrible dining room chair and the aches that follow.
We’ve also experienced what it’s like to travel as part of a remote team and the things to consider both before you go and whilst you’re away.
Our guides are built from years of experience and testing, so you’re getting the best advice and guidance for your own remote working setup and journey.
