34 Unify Testimonials

"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!"

"While the primary project driver was the elimination of a high risk situation (outdated and de-supported voice system), Sauder gained an enterprise voice solution, which was highly scalable, carrier grade resilient, centrally managed, and gained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

"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."

"We made a decision to streamline our communications processes to improve efficiency and collaboration. We needed a partner that could support us on a global scale, and we wanted a proven solution that we could standardize on."

"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."

"We used to organize business trips for our employees lasting up to two weeks. This travel came at a high cost, let alone the fact that our employees could not perform their regular duties while away."

"KIDS is delighted to have had the opportunity to work with Unify to develop and implement the OpenScape Xpert platform. The additional flexibility and utility of this system allows the clinical staff to be transferred between calls, to leave and rejoin, and allows the KIDS operator to create and deconstruct conferences whilst still holding individual personnel on the console. This allows expert medical staff and other key personnel to be maneuvered into and out of whichever call they are needed, so that more than one case and complex discussions can take place simultaneously. The touchscreen console is easy to use, the call handling environment is clearly visualised facilitating logical and intuitive conference call management."

"We have challenged each other along the journey to achieve our goals, and this has led to a friendship between us; one which will inspire new opportunities in the future."

"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."

"Our reception team now sees where everyone is and messages are standardised and easily accessed by different departments. The voicemail system is much easier to access and far more reliable. The system has greatly improved our efficiency and parents are complimentary about it which is the real proof."

"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."

"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."

"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."

"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."

"Since the hospital can't stop, we needed a reliable transition. Deployment went very well with no outages and no end user problems."
