"Integrated mobile technology has been well received because ultimately it gives care workers much more flexibility."

"We’re very proud of our website now. The customer experience is much better and we know this because we don’t hear about it. We no longer get complaints from customers and staff about the site crashing and we’ve seen a huge reduction in the number of negative comments posted on the web."

"We considered large and small providers from the UK and US... in the end, we chose Advanced NFP out of all of them for demonstrable sector expertise and a track record of successful delivery."

"Advanced has enabled us to obtain the best value for money from its technology investment. As a charity it is critical that every ‘£’ spent on IT offers more than a ‘£’ back in benefit. The Advanced approach, that begins with aligning IT to business goals, has created the strategy and infrastructure to allow us to achieve this."

"The technical support we have received has been key in allowing us to develop our new e-commerce application with Advanced acting as both a trusted partner and technical consultant throughout the process."

"Advanced are the right size and fit for HS1 in the right location (both head offices are just over a mile apart in London) to provide a tailored IT managed service. Consequently Advanced will act as an ‘IT shepherd’ for HS1 on all IT related matters."

"Introducing Advanced Cloud Marketplace has significantly reduced the transactional costs of ordering and paying invoices for items procured through the system."

"Advanced has proven to be a highly responsive partner – the close collaboration with the University is driving innovation that benefits the whole of the Higher Education sector."

"Today, nearly a thousand users at Berwin Leighton Paisner use electronic forms supplied by Advanced’s Laserform."

“We weren’t too sure about this at first as we hadn’t heard very much about PDA (Netezza), but we did some research online and found there were a lot of case studies where people were reporting they were getting 100-500 times better performance. So we became very interested, and asked Advanced for a proof of concept so we could have a closer look and ensure it would meet our requirements. Advanced approached IBM and we received agreement for a loan of the appliance for a one-month proof of concept. The PDA (Netezza) server spreads the load of the query over multiple processing units and multiple disks. Once you get the appliance set up and the database has been replicated across, you can actually start using it straight away, you have no complex design of a reporting database or anything like that.”

"Web integration and online services are crucial to us at Beating Bowel Cancer. We simply could not manage community fundraising without remote access for our fundraising staff. As the charity grows we can continue to recruit more staff on the ground and be confident that they have the necessary support and infrastructure at their finger-tips to ensure they can do their job effectively."

"The solution is a powerful purchasing tool for all staff including researchers and academics, but also provides Procurement with essential visibility and financial control over spend.”

“Purchasing of highvolume products through the system is efficient and simple via catalogue management with end-to-end electronic transactions.”

"We have streamlined our processes and been able to tailor Exchequer to suit our methods, such as handling up front payments, creating a bespoke solution that you would never get out the box."

“As a business we are delighted to have such a great tool, to ease reporting of events that give rise to concern, in such a straightforward manner.''
