Today’s tech designers and software developers approach their work with your productivity needs in mind. They understand the face of business is shifting for nearly everyone. Companies are increasingly relying on a flexible workforce, which means that tech companies need to respond to new needs and challenges that include moderate budgets and productivity for solopreneurs and small- and medium-sized business owners.
A Portable Printing Hub
As your freelance client roster or small business grows, you may occasionally work at the local library or at a coworking space where the facility offers printing services. With the xPrintServer from Lantronix, which is small enough to easily tuck into your professional messenger bag next your laptop, you can manage your printer needs. The xPrintServer allows you to wirelessly connect to over 4,000 printers.
A High-Quality Smartphone
Out of all the amazing smartphone choices available, we landed on the Apple iPhone 6s.

Featuring a long battery life, you can work away from your desk if that helps keep you fresh and alert. It allows you to get to each out-of-office meeting without worrying about a crucial missed message. You will love the iPhone 6s’ crisp 12-megapixel iSight camera that also takes 4K video to seize any visual inspiration for your project in an instant, or to record the perfect video presentation. As always, it is tough to beat the security and functionality of Apple products.
