"Telephony wasn't our core competence, so we didn't want to make large scale infrastructure investments. We needed the right partner to design, manage and roll-out a new system in each country and then centralise things for us. We are a traditional industrial company – we operate on low margins."

"We expected our partner to deliver full functionality including all equipment, software, and services in a centralized model over a single cabling infrastructure for voice, data and video. A single cabling network allowing Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) would reduce the cost of moving people around, and make PC and telephone connections substantially less time-consuming for IT support."

"Councils are under tremendous pressure to deliver efficiencies while maintaining service levels. Our work with Siemens Enterprise Communications has delivered an enhanced voice infrastructure that has enabled flexible working for all our staff. This will support our next stage development; moving to new offices that will drive further efficiencies."

"Communications technology is becoming increasingly complex. Its operation requires specialist knowledge and ties up valuable resources. We wanted to change that with the project called 7,000 dial tones."

"Taking your number with you is getting popular around the city. Being able to make and take calls anywhere, on their smart phones or at home offices has been convenient. Once they get it, they run with it."

"Conference and event business over the last year increased 40%. That spike tells us that we would have lost 40% of the corporate events because we didn't have the communications technology. This represents a big ROI for us."

"With the combination of OpenScape 4000 and OpenScape Voice and the standardized administration of both systems with the OpenScape User Management module we have the option of a soft migration from TDM technology to a standard-based softswitch solution."

"For us it was particularly important, that no disruption to normal business occurred during the installation period. Customer access remained a priority at all stages of the process. I find it very useful that you can now access almost everything using just your Smartphone. So I can now work while travelling and even from home!"

"By tapping their 'smart card' against a reader on the computer in any patient room, clinicians are logged on or off that device. When they tap out, they are not actually logged off our system completely; their current session is just disengaged from the computer they are working on at the time. They can then move on to the next patient's room, tap their card, and pick up exactly where they left off."

"Siemens Enterprise Communications and Black Box offered an innovative and forward looking solution and service set to take our University forward. Even more, this partnership literally launched the same week as the University's new strategic plan—becomes a very real, pivotal component of CAU’s overall advancement strategy. One of our strategic priorities is to increase institutional capacity and fortify our infrastructure. The new Siemens/Black Box platform squarely meets that objective. We haven't just leveled our telecommunications playing field. We have raised our position on it."

"Siemens Enterprise Communications already knew the company's business and was providing us with good quality service. Maintaining it would lead to less impact in the changeover."

"With OpenScape Office Contact Centre, we have been able to deliver world-class customer support while also controlling costs. Moreover, we have achieved a new level of operational flexibility and can scale our resources rapidly to meet changing business demand."

"While the primary project driver was the elimination of a high risk situation (outdated and de-supported voice system), Sauder gained an enterprise voice solution, which was highly scalable, carrier grade resilient, centrally managed, and gained rich features and functionality."

"With OpenScape Voice and the extensive OpenScape Unified Communications solutions, we have achieved more efficient inter-site collaboration, as well as cost reductions."

"Our work with Unify has delivered enhanced customer service through greater management of information. We needed an infrastructure that would move with us. OpenScape Office LX provides the much needed flexibility and scalability as we continue to progress with a shared services agenda."
