Unified Communications for the Enterprise

The New Year took me into Philadelphia for WTAS, which is one of the largest independent tax firms in the United States. They provide a wide range of tax, valuation, financial advisory and related consulting services to individual and corporate clients across the country.

They have 14 locations nationwide and came to Smoothstone to incorporate them all on one seamless network. I personally trained most of these locations remotely, via a series of webinars, or through on-site training and have to say it was a pleasure meeting and working with their employees.

WTAS required an entirely new communications infrastructure from Smoothstone, which meant we had to train users on a wide range of our products and services, such as Cisco IP handsets, our web-based Phone Control, Console Assistant for the receptionists and Executive Assistants and a massive WAN Network. All locations are now connected via 4-digit dial, which will save WTAS an enormous amount on long distance charges!

So, in a nutshell, we are up and running at all WTAS locations and are happy to have them aboard as part of the Smoothstone family! BTW, the attached picture is a skyline view of Philly from the NJ side. The city of Brotherly Love!

Until next time...
