Helping SMEs increase their productivity with cloud computing
29 March 2012
NetIntegrate is a Swedish
IAMCP partner (International Association of Microsoft Channel Partners) that provides cloud based solutions for SMEs. The 2 employees of NetIntegrate are committed to providing customers the piece of the digital communications puzzle that allows them to shift focus from ICT maintenance to business processes, thereby increasing levels of productivity.
Since 2004, NetIntegrate has offered flexible solutions that enable their customers to work from remote locations without loss of data. In 2011, NetIntegrate began to leave its mark on the Swedish cloud market by focusing on Microsoft cloud based services and it now seeks to expand into other countries.
One example of how NetIntegrate supports its customers is how it has worked with communications consultant Katarina Törnell of
Balanserad Kommunikation since 2011, by moving her into the private cloud and simplifying the way her data is managed while on the road.
As a sole-trader, Törnell was frequently on the go between numerous client meetings and central office, and therefore required an IT solution that made it easy to access data from any place at any time. Initially, she relied on a POP3 email server to retrieve her email from her ISP, which did not sync properly with her phone and off-premise devices. NetIntegrate saw an opportunity to guide Törnell into the cloud with
Office 365 and
Exchange Online.
NetIntegrate’s solutions ensured secure data synchronization and access for Törnell. As a result, she gained the benefit of “3 screens and 1 cloud”. The interoperability associated with Office 365 meant she had the capacity to access real-time information on her clients and their needs. Moreover, the flexibility to use any device to access her data allowed her to respond to her own customers dramatically faster, leading to higher productivity and time gained.
Additional use of
Lync Online has allowed Törnell to stay well-connected with NetIntegrate for trouble-shooting and assistance. NetIntegrate also has plans to add SharePoint Online to further unify her data storage.
Office 365 gives Balanserad Kommunikation a more efficient data storage venue, making it easier for Katarina Törnell to respond to her customer’s growing demands. NetIntegrate has streamlined her operations.
Balanserad Kommunikation is typical of NetIntegrate can use cloud-based services to help customers focus on what really matters to them and not get distracted by IT issues. As it expands beyond Sweden into other countries, we wish the team the very best of luck.
Each month, to highlight the continuing growth of cloud services provided by European SMEs, we will feature in the Microsoft Cloud & Interoperability Centre in Brussels, the technology of another innovative, growing small business
