LOUISVILLE, Colo. \u2013 August 23, 2021 \u2013<\/strong> JumpCloud<\/a> today announced the findings from its recent survey, \u201c2021 Impact of COVID-19 on SMEs.\u201d With global changes in the workplace due to COVID-19 and the Delta variant, small and medium-sized enterprises are continuing to adjust their workplace models. The survey results detail the impact of the Delta variant of COVID-19 on SMEs, how SMEs are making adjustments to the workplace, and what the future of the SME workplace might look like. JumpCloud\u2019s 2021 Impact of COVID-19 on SMEs survey represents more than 500 decision-makers from small and mid-sized organizations in both the U.S. and the U.K.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSMEs continue to exhibit great resourcefulness, flexibility, and initiative in responding to the pandemic and the Delta variant,\u201d said Rajat Bhargava, CEO of JumpCloud. \u201cAs an SME ourselves, we know the current conditions are extremely fluid, and like the majority of respondents, we had to rethink and delay our office return and hybrid workplace options. While SMEs grapple with how and where employees will work, we are rapidly expanding functionality delivered through the JumpCloud platform with new security like our recently announced one-touch push multi-factor authentication<\/a>, that makes it easier and more cost-effective for small IT teams to adopt advanced security policies.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
