While many organizations are anxiously awaiting the time when at least some of their employees can return to the office, others are pivoting to a 100% remote model. The global pandemic taught us that work is not about where people go, but about what they do. It also shined a light on the importance of employee safety, wherever they are located.
In light of these developments, colocation providers are looking for new ways to engage their clients while maintaining the highest possible standards of safety and efficiency. Now more than ever, doing so requires the ability to provide a touchless experience throughout the entire customer lifecycle — from touring and selecting a site to monitoring, managing and protecting the data center infrastructure.
Here are four key ways colocation providers can deliver the touchless experience that today’s multi-tenant data center tenant demands:

- Security
