CHALLENGES

The Fiducian Group is a multisite organisation, operating in offices than span capital and regional Australia. Their communications setup was comprised of on-premise PABX phone systems that were not meeting their requirement for unified communication.

Each site was essentially acting as its own communication silo, making ongoing management and upgrades more time-consuming, complex, and expensive. The need for a cloud-based and unified solution that could manage all sites from a central location was clearly needed.

Arrow’s consultancy services provided a clear direction for our solution engineers to match business objectives with the best solution. 8×8 was chosen as the cloud provider that could best service The Fiducian Group’s unified communications needs.

SOLUTION SUMMARY

The Fiducian Group required unification of 13 of their sites, through transitioning to cloud-based unified communications that could be managed centrally.

Arrow specialise in on-premise to cloud phone migration, with additional experience and expertise in managing more complex multisite deployments.

The custom designed solution utilised 8×8 X Series, providing integrated communications that are not only cost-effective but also have a strong focus on customer experience. This aligns with The Fiducian Group’s values that include building long-term client relationships based on mutual trust.
