挑战
JMC IT, a company that provides IT support and expertise to companies and organizations across the UK, was looking to expand its remote support solution. The company's clients are primarily located within the North of England, but often have remote or satellite offices around the UK, Europe, US and Asia. Changes in IT, like greater calls for staff flexibility, the evolution of remote working and Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) initiatives, have all had an impact on IT support requirements. Keeping pace with these dynamic IT changes means that JMC is continually looking at its own support services and how they meet customer requirements. Prior to implementing Bomgar, remote access to customer devices was undertaken on an ad-hoc basis and via a wide variety of different technologies. While access was always secure and conducted via VPN or Citrix Access Gateway, the ability to conduct all sessions in the same way was not possible.

解决方案
JMC IT decided to implement Bomgar's appliance-based solution to expand its remote support solution. The decision was based on the requirement for security and audit control, as well as the ease of use for the support team that would be working with the tool on a day-to-day basis. The Bomgar solution was chosen for its simplicity, security and audit features, which were far above the other solutions on the market. The return on investment exercise that JMC went through also demonstrated extremely strong results. After the implementation of the Bomgar appliance was completed, the support team saw a significant improvement in both service to end users and support staff productivity. The JMC team has also been able to promote remote worker support and Bring Your Own Device / Mobile support as part of its overall service offerings, as Bomgar allows them to support a wide range of mobile, tablet and PC devices.

Flex Contact Center: Supporting rapid business growth with IBM Connections Cloud and IBM Verse
Flex Contact Center, a professional services company offering telesales, call-center, anti-attrition, back-office, helpdesk and collection services, has grown rapidly since its establishment in 2009. With operations in 12 sites across two states and four cities in Brazil, the company employs more than 11,000 people. However, the company realized that to prevent barriers to future expansion, it was essential to make it as easy as possible for its people to work together effectively—even if they were based in separate geographical locations. Traditional approaches to collaboration—based on email and phone calls—threatened to reduce productivity. Flex Contact Center wanted to enable better collaboration and communication across its workforce, but did not want to make large investments in infrastructure.

PureFluent: Connecting to partners and customers through the cloud for enhanced productivity
PureFluent, a translation services company, was facing challenges in managing its translation and document review processes. The company often received files in uneditable formats from customers, which required staff members to transfer text to word processing or spreadsheet documents. During the translation process, maintaining version control was a challenge because PureFluent sent work to hundreds of translators in multiple geographic locations. It was also time-consuming for staff to manage the large volume of emails and FTP transactions required to submit translations for customer review and ensure the integration of requested changes. Furthermore, staff were spending significant time hunting through their emails for specific attachments.
