SPAR chooses Avaya’s real-time, cloud-based collaborative Scopia

GUILDFORD, UK: Avaya, the global provider of business collaboration and communications solutions, announced that SPAR UK has selected Avaya's real-time collaboration technologies, delivered via cloud and provided by our partner Videonations Ltd, to increase the company's efficiency across seven business units.

SPAR sought a reliable, scalable, collaborative video solution to ensure that employees of all seven business units were able to communicate effectively without loss of time in travelling. The seven business units previously used basic teleconferencing systems - which was inefficient and ineffective for collaboration - and required executives to travel to have face-to-face meetings instead.

The clear answer was videoconferencing, and so the company evaluated several different systems, but ultimately sought a system with strong integration and extensive capabilities to ensure ease-of-use and cross-unit collaboration, plus the ability to scale with a hosted platform as adoption increased - all features provided by Avaya's Scopia solution.
