8el rescue leading law firm Thring Townsend Lee & Pembertons out of the snow!
After the heaviest snow fall in the UK for 18 years, many transport systems and businesses were unable to continue as normal with employees struggling to get to work. However, this did not stop law firm Thring Townsend Lee & Pembertons!
As a top 100 UK law firm, Thring Townsend Lee & Pembertons (TTL&P) has an infrastructure in place that ensures its employees can access their systems reliably from any of its four offices or when working remotely.
The firm has a number of SSL licenses providing connection to the Thring Wide Area Network already in place to cater for flexible home or remote working. The unexpected snow meant that this number would need to be increased immediately to continue providing a seamless service to their clients.
Chris Harding, IT & Facilities Operations Manager from TTL&P stated "We knew we were going to have a number of employees unable to get in to work during the heavy snow. 8el currently provide our SSL licenses enabling our employees to work remotely in a secure environment, using email as well as shared network drives. We contacted 8el in the morning and an additional 20 temporary licenses were created and active, almost immediately. It saved us time and money and ensured our business and therefore our clients' businesses continued as normal".
The adverse weather has been a test for many businesses, however with the managed communications platform that 8el have to offer, business can continue as normal, Disaster Recovery plans are quickly enforced and the wonders of VoIP and Wide Area Network connectivity really do come into their own.
