Customer: PAUL HARTMANN AG
Industry: Healthcare
Services: Implementation and Management of a Unified Communications solution with UCSimple including Migration to Skype for Business and Exchange Online and ongoing Managed UC Services
“Due to our decentralized system, we were using various systems for telephony at our headquarters in Germany as well as in the branches inside and outside of Europe,” explains Helmut Schleifer, Project Manager for the Skype for Business migration at PAUL HARTMANN AG. “We had been searching for a Unified Communications solution for some time, but had been restrained by the often insufficient interfaces of Lotus Notes, our e-mail solution at that time.” After the decision had been made to replace Lotus Notes (now IBM Notes) with Microsoft Exchange Online, the way was then clear for an integrated Unified Communications (UC) solution. However, the companywide integration of the communicative infrastructure was characterized by a particular complexity, since two different telephony systems were being used: Siemens and Cisco. SoftwareONE`s UC division and their UC specialists were therefore brought on board for the planning and implementation of a Unified Communications solution using Microsoft technology.
Together with the experts from SoftwareONE the migration to Skype for Business was initiated to replace the traditional Siemens telephone system. At the same time, the e-mail solution IBM Notes was replaced by Microsoft Exchange Online (Office 365).
Skype for Business established a central and Unified Communications solution company-wide, which integrates existing systems and ensures improved cost transparency. This is how costs can be saved and workflow improved in companies in the future.
Key Benefits:
- One Unified Communications solution used company-wide
- Improved cost transparency through awareness of operation and local costs
- Cost reduction through standardization of terminals and economization of maintenance cost
