I want to assure you that we are operating as normal to help you run and protect your business. You will continue to receive the exemplary levels of service that you come to expect from Edafio, and we will be leveraging all the technologies at our disposal to engage and support you.

We will be monitoring the situation regularly and updating this with any new information.

For Edafio Clients and Partners

Has Edafio closed its offices?

No. Edafio has recommended that all associates that can work from home do so. We operate in and service our clients in such a way that remote work is often times even more rapid and effective than delaying a response until an on-site visit can be made. Our offices will continue to remain open and accessible to associates who need to visit an office, as well as for our service desk associates.

Does Edafio have any recommendations for our business?

While every business is different, we do have some recommended best practices for businesses working to adjust to the current realities of the marketplace. These include a philosophy of enabling a remote workforce in a secure manner. While Edafio has multiple options for services that include cloud deployment, many of these can take an implementation that will not match the speed of the response needed in which to adjust to making a remote workforce feasible for a response to this situation. However, we do have some rapid deployment options such as Office 365 and utilization of Microsoft Teams for remote collaboration. Contact your client manager to arrange additional licenses or other options.

Will Edafio continue regular on-site visits?

Many of our clients have instituted a “no vendor – no visitor” policy at their physical workplace in an effort to protect their associates. Edafio is supportive of these policies and will work within the guidelines of our clients. For clients that need on-site assistance where remote assistance is unsuccessful, we will coordinate with that particular client to determine the best time of day for the service visit in order to minimize disruption as well as protect the health and safety of both our client and Edafio’s team members.
