What tech does a startup company need?
A solid starting setup:
- Domain, website & professional email (Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace)
- Identity & security: single sign-on, MFA for everyone, a password manager
- Collaboration: Teams or Slack, shared drives (OneDrive/SharePoint or Google Drive)
- Sales: a CRM (HubSpot, Zoho CRM)
- Finance: accounting & invoicing (Zoho Books, QuickBooks, Xero) — VAT-ready in the UAE
- People: HR, attendance and payroll (in the UAE, payroll through WPS)
- Work: project management (Planner, Asana, Trello, Jira)
- Devices: laptop management and endpoint protection (Intune)
- Backups & automation connecting it all
