Bucharest, May 7, 2012 – CRESCENDO, the IT & C solution house, announces the completion of the implementation project within Generali Romania of a collaborative solution based on the Microsoft Exchange technology, based on the reorganization of the IT infrastructure of the company. The project involved the migration of over 1,000 accounts to Exchange and the integration of over 130 BlackBerry mobile users and was implemented by CRESCENDO specialists along with the IT Generali team.

Generali Romania, a member of the Generali Group, has used for a long time an email solution managed externally. To simplify administration and usage, but also to reduce costs, Generali Romania has decided to adopt Microsoft Exchange. “The bids received showed that, with comparable trading conditions, the costs of licensing and adopting the Microsoft Exchange solution were the most advantageous for our organization,” said Narcis Mircea, IT Infrastructure Manager, Generali Romania.

Following the project, Generali Romania benefits from reducing the time of entry into production of a new employee, increasing employee mobility through web access from anywhere and from any device, and simplifying the use and management of the solution; all this under the conditions of reduced administration and support costs. “By internalizing the service and using Microsoft Exchange, the whole process of activating a new user – email and BlackBerry – lasts only 2 hours from 5 days, the previous time. In addition, the sales team now has the mobility to support customers, from anywhere and any device. All this translates into time and money savings”, completes Narcis Mircea.

To implement the solution, Generali Romania chose CRESCENDO, an IT & C integrator with experience in multi-technology projects, including Microsoft. “We are glad that we have achieved the performance targets imposed by Generali, including the completion of the project in a record three-week period. We remain alongside our partner Generali to provide him with all the necessary support both for the existing infrastructure and for the next projects,” says Marius Turlea, Business Unit Manager, Business Productivity Solutions in CRESCENDO.

Nu s-a dorit sa se implementeze cea mai buna aplicatie de vanzare sau de analiza de marketing sau cea mai buna aplicatie de contabilitate, ci aplicatia care realiza o buna integrare a functiunilor din intreprindere. Un alt criteriu a fost posibilitatea sistemului de a lucra in timp real si de a(...)

Existenta unui mediu IT eterogen genera dificultati si costuri mari de administare. Practic, in lipsa unui management centralizat, intretinerea implica numeroase deplasari in centrele de date si interventii manuale pe o infrastructura al carei inventar corect era dificil de realizat. Mai mult,(...)

Am analizat piata si ofertele mai multor jucatori, iar Azure ne-a convins cel mai mult. Decizia a fost argumentata de investitiile facute de Microsoft in cloud si de utilizarea in companie a numeroase alte produse Microsoft. A contat insa, la fel de mult, si oferta foarte competitiva facuta de (...)

Intreruperile in functionare, atat pentru email cat şi pentru CRM, ne-au determinat sa mutam serverele la un furnizor extern, insa ne-am lovit de probleme cu securitatea, iar furnizorul nu ne-a putut oferi suportul necesar.

Ne trebuia un instrument familiar utilizatorilor, iar solutia Microsoft s-a potrivit acestor cerinte – cerintele noastre. Cand rapoartele si filtrarea datelor se fac intr-un program ca Excel 2013 este clar ca utilizarea va fi facila. Complementar am apreciat si PowerView care permite vizualizar(...)
