Is Unified Communications right for your customer?

Could one business application really save time, money and keep staff connected, from anywhere?

With more and more hype around Unified Communications (UC) how do you really know if it’s the right tool for your customers? Could one solution integrate the various ways your customers staff currently collaborate to replace the need for all those the bandwidth-hungry business apps?

The ideal unified solution combines instant chat, ad-hoc and pre-planned conferencing, video calling, staff directory, staff presence and more.

BCR achieves …..

When did you join Gamma? I joined Gamma in June 2007.

What’s your industry ‘hot topic’? PCI compliance – it never ceases to amaze me how many organisations take credit card payments over the phone yet do not have any safeguards against credit card fraud.

What did you do before Gamma? I spent three years working for a small company on the south coast, who became one of Gamma’s first reseller customers. Prior to that, I worked for other carriers – Primus and RSL. I started my telco life as an engineer working for Central Telecom.

Do you have any achievements that you’re proud to tell us about? A couple of years ago I took up cycling and in 2017 I rode 416 miles in four days. With the help of family, friends, colleagues and partners I was able to raise £1,270 for charity. My next challenge is to ride over 450 miles in a similar time frame so I had better start training!

What are your hobbies outside of work? Cycling, Snowboarding, kayaking and generally being outdoors. Also like building stuff and recently built a new office in the garden dubbed the “Wendy House”.

And finally, a little bit about you? I like to think I’m a fairly relaxed person who is keen to get the best out of everything that I do, whether that be at home, work or play.
