Technology Innovation Award Winner

The pandemic resulted in businesses having staff working across multiple devices with multiple applications across multiple locations, flexibly.  This wasn’t just a challenge faced by large corporates, but by businesses of every size and type.

The project was a challenging one.  For example, in the scoping phase Holler found that there were 45 different CRM solutions being used by the 400 businesses.  It was also necessary to embrace a large number of different call charge tariffs offered to existing clients and to offer a cloud billing solution to each company.

Once the new system was in places, businesses located within Capital Space were immediately able to offer their workforce a number of productivity enhancements and business tools to ensure they were able to meet the needs of their staff and customers in a completely new way of working.  The most compelling feature was the ability to work from anywhere and to communicate, conference and collaborate with their co-workers and customers – whether using a physical phone on their office desk, a softphone on their smartphone or on their computer.

Switching off legacy system across locations also led to a significant saving on electricity bills.
