挑战
Lee Wagner, president of Computer Consultants, Inc. (CCI), had been searching for a prepackaged product complete with in-depth data reporting that he could deploy on all his customers’ sites. He implemented a string of solutions, including ones from N-able, Kaseya, LabTech, and Zenith Infotech – only to discover none of them met his expectations of time savings and efficiency. About a year after Continuum separated from Zenith Infotech, CCI was in the process of running LabTech’s RMM tool – and Lee was becoming increasingly frustrated with the tool’s constant updates. “It was just more and more time on our end and it really wasn’t cutting down our workload,” he said. Fortunately, Lee had the occasion of running into Continuum representatives at the IT Nation conference. But by that point, he was cautious of migrating to yet another RMM (remote monitoring and management) tool promising quick setup and ease of use. After much consultation, Lee decided to give Continuum’s tool a chance. The decision has since proven to have significant positive impact on CCI’s business processes and profitability.

Lee Wagner decided to give Continuum’s RMM tool a chance after much consultation. The decision has since proven to have significant positive impact on CCI’s business processes and profitability. The migration to Continuum RMM was streamlined, with a fixed cost and comprehensive support. Lee was particularly impressed with the ticket submission process of the Continuum Network Operations Center (NOC). The communication with the NOC team was greatly enhanced compared to previous providers. By utilizing the NOC, CCI has been able to maintain a low headcount while still providing faster resolution of issues for their clients. The NOC team can perform tasks overnight, allowing CCI’s techs to focus on customer issues during the day. This has enabled CCI to handle more workload without increasing headcount and to take on new clients without worrying about additional specialization and labor costs.

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.
