A business getting ahead by looking at modern, cost-effective Cloud-based solutions from a local source.
The Challenges
The inability to administer 16 locations, all of which had different phone systems with limited remote access, leading to frustrating delays in change management. A complicated billing model was in place with multi-vendor interaction, making central financial management difficult. Schools were operating off obsolete / unsupported or expensive-to-maintain products, often with limited functionality.
During the pandemic, the need to communicate between staff and pupils become ever more challenging.
“From the initial contact with SCG, everything has gone very smoothly. We wanted a new phone system for our schools and decided on the Horizon package. The proposal was very clear, the installation was trouble-free, and the training and aftercare have been perfect. We were kept informed every step of the way, and I will definitely use SCG again in the future.”
The SCG Solution
SCG provided a Cloud-based system with a single centralised admin portal, making changes quick and easy, without the need and cost for external supplier support. SCG provided a single billing platform, still allowing schools, where required, to have individual cost information, with centralised visibility, including a subscriber-based user model for ease of rapid scalability up and down to allow
for low usage periods in school holidays.
Our Cloud-based platforms allow the flexibility of a feature set, dependent on requirements, without the need for expensive on-site hardware to maintain.
The applications supported include solutions for migrating teaching staff, supporting their location via mobile applications, and further safeguarding facilities, which make the whole comms throughout the locations, easier than ever before. Our solutions allow easy mobile and desktop video conferencing, ensuring lessons and meetings continue with no loss of productivity.
