    NEGATIVE IMPACTS OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY ON

    BUSINESS

    1. Digital Communication Can Lead to Miscommunication


    Many of the more subtle aspects of a message are lost through text. You
    can’t hear the person’s tone of voice when they’re sending you an email.
    This makes it easy to misinterpret the meaning of text-based
    communication. Video communication is better than text, but many
    nonverbal signals are still lost. Miscommunication between team members is
    now more likely thanks to technology.

    2. Always-Connected Culture Leads to Faster Burnout


    It’s possible for business teams to communicate at any time of the day.
    While this does wonders for productivity, it has blurred the lines between
    clocked-in and clocked-out. Many employees are expected to answer emails
    and messages from superiors the moment they are received. In this sense,
    technology has made it much harder to disengage from work, which has led
    to employees burning out quicker than ever before.

    3. Generates Massive Amounts of E-Waste


    Businesses go through electronics equipment much faster than consumers,
    whether it be commercial electronics from their production facilities or
    office electronics from their brick-and-mortar locations.

    POSITIVE IMPACTS OF INFORMATION


    TECHNOLOGY ON BUSINESS
    1. IT Streamlines Communication
    Efficient communication is critical to company success. In an
    increasingly connected and dispersed business landscape, recruiting,
    retaining, and leveraging employees requires ongoing communication
    and collaboration. A key advantage of information technology lies in
    its ability to streamline communication both internally and externally.

    2. IT Facilitates Strategic Thinking


    One of the fundamental advantages of IT is its ability to enhance a
    company's competitive advantage in the marketplace, by facilitating
    strategic thinking and knowledge transfer. Accessing and leveraging
    social networks and subscription databases, for instance, has enabled
    companies the ability to assemble, interpret and transfer information
    like never before.

    3. T Stores and Safeguards Valuable Information


    Information management is essential to any business that must store
    and safeguard sensitive information for long periods of time. IT
    affords companies the ability to store, share, and backup files for later
    use, as well as protecting information from unauthorized individuals.
    As a result, IT gives businesses the peace of mind that the information
    they collect and analyze can be properly stored and safeguarded for
    future use.

    4. Reduce Business Cost

    Small business owners can use technology to reduce business costs.


    Basic enterprise software enables a firm to automate back office
    functions, such as record keeping, accounting and payroll. Mobile
    tech allows home offices and field reps to interact in real time. For
    example, field reps can use mobile apps to record their daily expenses
    as they incur them and have them sync automatically with accounting
    software back at the office.

    5. Increased Employee Productivity


    Small businesses can increase their employees' productivity through
    the use of technology. Computer programs and business software
    usually allow employees to process more information than manual
    methods. Business owners can also implement business technology to
    reduce the amount of human labor in business functions. This allows
    small businesses to avoid paying labor costs along with employee
    benefits.

    6. Broaden Customer Bases


    Technology allows small businesses to reach new economic markets.
    Rather than just selling consumer goods or services in the local
    market, small businesses can reach regional, national and international
    markets. Retail websites are the most common way small businesses
    sell products in several different economic markets.

    7. Widens Area of Promotion

    Through technology, you can add several new techniques that will
    help to grow your business whether the business is small or large.
    Businesses can generate immense profits by using technological
    methods to promote their business. Profits are the main reason why
    businesses look for technologically advanced devices. Technology is
    the most crucial factor for social media presence. Social media has
    been updated a lot due to technological advancement. In the end, all
    these things will help the business to grow to a great extent.
    8. Accuracy
    With technology, all the things are computerized and nothing is left
    manual. Due to this, there is no chance left for the mistakes. The data
    is stored with accuracy with the right statistics with the use of
    advanced technology. The figure that is inserted in the excel sheet will
    be accurately mentioned without any error. You can rely on the
    computer system for the calculations.

    9. Makes You Competitive

    With technology, a small business can now compete with large


    organizations without even investing dollars. With technology,
    everything is quick and easily accessible. You just need an internet
    connection and you can have access to all the best tools. With these
    tools available handy, you can give competition to multinational
    companies also.

    categorizing the products and services of the company. It creates
    customer satisfaction and helps build a good image of a business.
