Avaya partner, Artelcom, conducted a technical and functional audit of the entire existing communications infrastructure, identifying various strategies for the evolution of the communications solutions for the 250 employees spread over six business units in France. Stemmer Distribution chose the Avaya UCaaS solution, Avaya Cloud Office, which met the group's specifications, providing an intuitive, easy-to-use solution that is perfect for their mobility needs.

Avaya Cloud Office has allowed us to harmonize and modernize our communication infrastructure while providing a more intuitive and mobile-friendly solution for our employees. We have been able to reduce our telecom budget, delivering cost savings without compromising on performance. Avaya Cloud Office truly embodies innovation without disruption."

Thanks to the Avaya Cloud Office solution, Stemmer Distribution has reduced its cost-per-user by 50%, while harmonizing the communications infrastructure to deliver a consistent experience for employees and customers. The solution also facilitates simplified management and administration for the IT Department, allowing them to focus on more strategic projects.

"Today's businesses are evolving their processes and a cloud communications platform provides everything employees need to be effective communicators, all on a single device, from anywhere they may be," said Tim Sherwood, GVP of Product and Offer Management, Avaya. "Avaya Cloud Office is one of the ultimate solutions for today's businesses seeking seamless communication and collaboration, with enterprise grade voice, video, messaging, meetings, and conferencing capabilities. With Avaya Cloud Office, customers can have their entire workforce on a single system, enabling easy collaboration and efficient operations, whether in-office, remote, or mobile.
