The Results
Stranded Oil has deployed almost every single Intermedia service. This includes Exchange Email, POP Email, Cloud PBX, SecuriSync® file sharing and backup, Email Archiving, as well as its Cloud Server application infrastructure. Finnegan is so happy that he recently pitched Intermedia’s suite of services to Stranded Oil’s corporate parent, recommending that all of Stranded Oil’s sister companies adopt Intermedia as well.
Here are just a few of the reasons why Finnegan is so excited:
Simplified management
“Today, when someone comes into the company, I only need to create one account. I have a cafeteria dashboard in which I just check the boxes. ‘This person needs a phone.’ ‘This person needs email.’ ‘This person gets SecuriSync for document management.’ From one screen, I can manage everyone’s accounts, email, phones and files.”
Expert migration assistance
“Migrating 100 users doesn’t sound like much, but there’s so much work that has to be done. Intermedia set up all of our accounts and every one of our users. This was a huge internal time savings to us. We received tons of compliments from both management and end users about how the migration was so transparent and smooth, and there were no problems, glitches or missing data.”
Cost savings
“In the old scenario, I was spending $18,000 a month for all of the solutions and users. With Intermedia, we have a much more robust system that’s way more manageable, reliable, accessible and user friendly — and it’s $10,000 a month. That’s a net savings of $100,000 a year — and that’s not even the primary benefit. The integration of services Intermedia provides has added the most value.”
Groundbreaking technology like SecuriSync
“With SecuriSync, we have file retention and version control. If someone gets a virus, we can bring up another computer for them, click a button and say, ‘Restore all their files from last Monday at 2:06 p.m.’ Boom. It’s just that easy. When someone leaves the company, all we have to do is check one box and we’ve disabled all of their systems and remotely wiped their phone, tablet and laptop.”
The bottom line for Finnegan? “We couldn’t have selected a better vendor than Intermedia. Truthfully, I don’t feel that one exists. Intermedia is the standalone leader in providing all of these services simultaneously — with a savings to us of roughly 40 percent. We’re very happy about that.”
Not to mention, the better Stranded Oil’s IT runs, the fewer trips Finnegan needs to make to Wyoming during the chilly winters.
