To serve as a trusted advisor to our clients, we need to stay up to speed with the latest IT trends and solutions. To achieve that, our team of IT experts attends weekly training sessions conducted by various IT solution providers. Based on our extensive experience and sales volume with the suppliers, we receive exclusive, direct and usually in-person training from these suppliers. Our Tech Talks blog series offers a snapshot of these educational sessions.
A national car wash company with 70 contact center agents and 450 locations wanted to utilize Microsoft Teams for corporate end users and replace their existing cloud phone system at their car wash locations, as they were unhappy with their unified communications platform provider’s support services. The company turned to one of our partners, a leader in the cloud communications arena.
Our partner deployed a Teams direct routing solution along with traditional unified communications as a service (UCaaS) and a cloud contact center platform. These products allowed staff members in car wash locations and corporate offices to communicate effectively, and the provider’s enterprise support model with a dedicated team of engineers ensured high-quality support for the software.
