SII Group Teams Up with 3CX and SAMcloud to Augment Mobility Initiative

In spending so much time facilitating the technological needs of customers, SII Group started to see its own communication system needed modernization. A cost-effective solution was needed to foster greater collaboration and mobility, with minimal disruption to critical business operations. Luckily for SII Group, they had employed the services of 3CX partner SAMcloud, and soon enough their new, modern 3CX PBX was being deployed.

The Challenge

SII Group is one of the most well-reputed technology partners for businesses of all sizes across France. The Paris-based Group has 74 sites in France and abroad, with over 7,000 highly-skilled employees prepared to offer high-value, customized and turnkey solutions geared to drive business outcomes.

As one of France’s leading technology partners, though, it was clear from the onset that the installation and deployment of a modernized system could not be allowed to disrupt operations or SII’s ability to service its own client base.

3CX Offers a Solution

3CX works with a global network of partners and resellers, which in turn empowers 3CX users through superior, local, technical support. In this case, partner SAMcloud was available to take the call to deliver a seamless installation and deployment for SII Group.

Fortunately, SAMcloud was able to install and deploy SII’s new 3CX phone system within just a few hours, during which no downtime was incurred.

Employees, too, were able to keep business moving as normal. As 3CX was intuitively designed for optimal user experience on the most popular operating systems today, employees recognized and understood the system immediately, with no added need for training for already busy employees.

“With our old Orange & Bouygues Telecom system, we experienced uneasy configuration of profiles and seriously outdated technology. We wanted to use new technologies to be able to be reachable on a smartphone and a PC, in the office or away. We evaluated 3CX based on the great price, the compatibility with the platform, and the scalability. With over 7,000 employees, the features and flexibility of 3CX were a clear choice to foster greater mobility and collaboration.”

The Results

Upon successful deployment, 3CX took control over SII’s 32 lines and 30 Snom and Yealink phones, relieving the IT team from burdensome management and maintenance roles. The transition enabled SII to standardize costs across its various branches, and gave an immediate boost to the mobility of its 7,000-strong employee base. Now, SII has the flexibility, budgetary space and mobility to provide even greater service to its own clients today. With a feature-rich phone system leveraging the most innovative communications tools, SII is uniquely positioned for success in the years to come, as well.
