SecurityWorks Inc Launches Secure Mobile Platform

The fact that it has introduced a Mobile Laptop Workstand that is optimized for use in industrial environments has been announced by a designer and manufacturer of IT accessories that allow mobility, security and ergonomics, SecurityWorks, Inc.

By allowing secure mounting of a laptop computer on a rugged, stable base suitable for industrial work environments, the industrial member of the company's Technology Workstand product family targets the needs of factories, service bays, and distribution centers. "In our discussions with IT departments in both SMEs and large companies, we learned of a strong desire among management to distribute more technology in the workplace, however, a limiting factor was how best to deploy IT assets in a secure and ergonomic way. To solve this problem we started from the ground up and designed the Technology Workstand that truly meets the needs of today's technology users," declared Christopher Meyer, SecurityWorks VP of Sales & Marketing.

Mr. Meyer noted that the Mobile Laptop Workstand's basic features include a star base with heavy-duty casters, a sturdy work surface, a large 360-degree foot rest plate, a 28-39" height-adjustable telescoping neck, a storage basket, a shelf with a lockable storage area for batteries and cords, as well as a six-socket power supply and surge protector with a 10 foot cord.

If Donn Gehret, at Rowand Machinery in Spokane, Washington is representative of other customers, SecurityWorks seems to be on the right track. Donn declared: "The Mobile Laptop Workstand provides a secure and stable method of deploying laptops throughout our repair and service facilities". He added: "As a John Deere sales and service dealer, we use proprietary software to run diagnostics on John Deere equipment, so it's a big advantage to conduct diagnostics anywhere in our facilities with the Mobile Laptop Workstands. We've also found productivity boosts by ordering parts and tracking work orders on the floor using the Workstands. The Workstands help us work more efficiently and keep our operating costs down."
