Chesterbrook, Pa. – Sept. 29, 2020 – Boomi™, a Dell Technologies™ business and leading provider of cloud-based integration platform as a service (iPaaS), today announced the findings from its Connections Survey, benchmarking the interpersonal and technological impact of remote work. Nearly 60% of employees feel more isolated and disconnected from their work and their teams, with 49% stating they want to see their offices improve remote collaboration tools and systems.
“It’s now more critical than ever to overcome data silos and connect information, systems, and ultimately people. When we are connected, new ideas emerge, problems are solved, and human ingenuity prevails,” said Mandy Dhaliwal, chief marketing officer at Boomi. “When you connect systems and data, you ultimately connect through to people and it’s this power of connection that drives us. We are entering a new era of integrated experiences when tech infrastructure and most importantly, people, need to be better connected and offered the same, seamless experience we’re all experiencing — from telemedicine to ride sharing — as digital-first consumers.”
The survey from Boomi explores the challenges facing workers and IT leaders, as well as the unique ways they are making new connections to overcome challenges and move their organizations forward. Workers are feeling the negative impact of remote work:
For their part, CIOs and IT leaders are emerging as the heroes to help make these much-needed connections and drive organizations forward:

“During this era, it’s even more important to be our authentic selves and give others permission to do the same.

A leader in the cloud-based integration platform as a service (iPaaS) market, Boomi has helped its customers navigate this unprecedented time and overcome connectivity challenges that have been exacerbated by the large number of global organizations needing to manage a remote workforce.
