For many of our customers, ways of doing business have substantially altered...

Healthcare/NFP

“We’ve had to go totally online and innovate our service design, as people could no longer come into the physical locations.”

Financial Services

“We’ve had to do some tweaking of the network just to adjust things. We purchased a new connector (VPN) so we weren’t all going through the same pipe.”

Retail Chain

“We’ve had to react quickly to this new environment… it’s been critical to be totally in control of our supply chain so we’re flexible enough to adjust to the ups and downs.”

Energy Company

“We were lucky that we had all our IT internally resourced, so we’ve been able to react really quickly. People I know in other businesses are now seeing the value of having this and looking to bring it in-house.”
