Unified Communications Business Success Example
One of the UK's premier entertainment venues struggled to manage the massive influx of bookings and customer enquiries during peak ticket sales times. They needed to renew their contact centre to handle high call volumes, ensure PCI-compliant payments, and introduce additional communication channels.
Their goals:
- Simplify communication traffic management in the 20-seat Box Office.
- Improve contact centre reporting to assess the charity’s ‘cost to serve’.
- Provide flexible, resilient, and cost-effective voice services with SIP and failover to ISDN.
Solution:
Instead of updating their existing system, the venue chose a Mitel UC platform and contact centre. Managed by Britannic, this resilient, hosted solution unified the contact centre and back office. Key features include Red Box Recorders’ Quantify for training and PCI compliance, and Bizvu for social media management. All services are delivered via Britannic’s SIP platform, NetX, underpinned by a 24/7/365 Platinum Service Level Agreement.
This has allowed the popular venue to manage communication more efficiently, especially during peak times, enhance customer service, and ensure secure, compliant transactions.
