Selection of RingCentral Is Part of a Broader Digital Transformation Agenda to Enable Multichannel Communications and Customer Service

BridgeClimb, the operator of Sydney’s iconic Harbour Bridge experience, has selected RingCentral Australia Pty Ltd, a leading provider of global enterprise cloud communications, collaboration, and contact centre solutions and a wholly owned subsidiary of RingCentral, Inc, to enable multichannel communications and customer service.

“We were looking at upgrading all of our business systems to provide BridgeClimb with the flexibility to scale in the future, and that included our telephony and contact centre provider,” said Parth Gandhi, Head of IT, BridgeClimb. “When we were assessing unified communications and contact centre solutions, RingCentral ticked all the boxes in terms of functionality and cost savings. I also like choosing partners with a vested interest in continually enhancing their systems over time, which is exactly what you get with RingCentral. The transition to our new RingCentral environment was smooth.”

The RingCentral Office solution provides voice, video, online meetings and team messaging to support the communications needs for all BridgeClimb’s staff members. With this solution, BridgeClimb has replaced at least five different internal systems that they had been running previously to provide these various capabilities. RingCentral Contact Centre provides BridgeClimb’s customer service team multichannel capabilities with email, phone and chat in a universal queue. It is integrated with RingCentral Office and provides extensive performance reporting and analytics across the entire platform.

RingCentral’s Professional Services team completed the design, configuration and implementation of the unified communications and contact centre solutions. It took just seven weeks from the initial meeting between RingCentral and BridgeClimb to complete the cutover of the new solution.

Key benefits of RingCentral for BridgeClimb include:

  1. Resiliency – BridgeClimb no longer has any single points of communications failure and no reliance on any physical infrastructure. RingCentral has a high availability, fully-redundant cloud and telecommunications infrastructure, end-to-end performance monitoring and SLAs, and real-time disaster recovery.
  2. User experience – as a people-first organisation, the employee experience is critical for BridgeClimb. RingCentral’s user interface is very intuitive with similar functionality to the consumer communications apps that are already very familiar to most users. This made the transition to RingCentral a very smooth experience for BridgeClimb’s staff, and also ensures easy onboarding and training for new employees.
  3. Scalability – with RingCentral’s subscription model and no communications hardware requirements or user onboarding constraints, BridgeClimb can continue to grow its business without any technology limitations.

With BridgeClimb currently undergoing an extensive digital transformation, RingCentral’s ability to integrate ‘out of the box’ with many other systems and applications was another critical decision factor. RingCentral is already integrated with BridgeClimb’s Microsoft Office 365 environment, and the company will be looking to other integrations in the future, including a new CRM solution.

“We’re delighted to be associated with the iconic Sydney tourism experience BridgeClimb, and really looking forward to seeing how the BridgeClimb team leverages RingCentral’s open platform for further innovation and business transformation as they roll out new digital applications and services,” said Peter Hughes, Regional Sales Vice President for Asia Pacific, RingCentral.

Retention More Critical than Recruitment, Say Healthcare HR Executives in Workforce Institute Survey

A national survey conducted by The Workforce Institute at Kronos Incorporated finds that healthcare professionals are satisfied in their current roles, but – as the current job market favors job seekers – keeping staff happy requires work. While healthcare leaders continue to focus on the widening skills gap to attract both seasoned healthcare workers and new entrants into the workforce, they must also commit to retaining good nurses, doctors, and IT staff by providing the tools and resources that empower them to perform at their fullest potential – something only 41% feel in a position to do today.

Read More: Sabio Group Strengthens Leadership To Support Accelerated Growth

To reveal what healthcare workers expect from an employer of choice, a study by The Workforce Institute and Regina Corso Consulting, “2020 Vision: Working in the Future of Healthcare,” measures employee satisfaction among registered nurses and IT professionals in healthcare and compares that with the steps HR executives say they are taking to recruit and retain best-fit talent.

  • Joyce Maroney, executive director, The Workforce Institute at Kronos
    “More than ever, the frontline workforce has freedom to be highly selective among a sea of employers actively hiring for open roles. Good pay alone isn’t enough to attract high performers in healthcare or keep your best nurses from leaving. To maintain staff satisfaction and engagement, work culture really does matter: from ease of scheduling and flexibility to training and development opportunities. These things are critically linked to an organization’s ability to retain staff, as are HR’s efforts to help current employees understand what is being done to maintain staffing levels and, in turn, manage fatigue.”

  • Nanne Finis, RN, MS, chief nurse executive, Kronos
    “Technology and the need for innovation in healthcare is driving positive outcomes. Healthcare IT – once considered a back-office function – is now a business-critical infrastructure driving work efficiency and effectiveness. In many ways, it is a differentiator as today’s most intelligent HCM technologies are empowering organizations to deliver an attractive work culture and unlock the true potential of their workforce. As we begin a new decade in which we will see adoption of modern workforce technologies surge, the future of work in healthcare is more exciting than ever.”

It also proves our commitment to invest aggressively behind Episerver’s ambitious customer-centricity strategy, visionary product roadmap and growing market presence.

More than 70 percent of global B2B decision-makers surveyed confirmed the majority of their company’s revenue will come from B2B e-commerce websites they own and operate within the next five years, but 57 percent of B2B leaders say they are currently held back by a cultural resistance to change and new technologies.

Innovations in Customer Experience, Infrastructure to Drive eCommerce Growth in 2020

According to the latest figures from the Department of Commerce, US eCommerce volume for the third quarter of 2019 was up 16.9 percent over the same period in 2018; eCommerce now accounts for 11.2 percent of total US retail sales. Monica Eaton-Cardone, a fintech executive and eCommerce specialist, looks at some leading industry trends she believes online retail merchants should take into consideration as they plan for the 2020s.

Read More: Top SalesTech News Of The Week – 16th December 2019

As with any rapidly changing activity, estimates vary as to just how many important trends are taking place, ranging in recent publications to as many as 402. Eaton-Cardone has identified ten she considers particularly noteworthy for eCommerce expansion; they fall into four general categories:

I.    Customer experience. In a retail environment market in which gaining a significant advantage in terms of price or selection is virtually impossible, the major differentiator is the quality of the customer experience. Key trends in this area include:

  • Personalization. “Consumer privacy issues aside (see below), a merchant’s ability to deliver a highly personalized experience may be the single greatest factor in determining success or failure in the coming decade.”
  • Trust and privacy. “Here, consumer education is essential. Common misunderstandings about privacy and security can result in buyers losing trust in legitimate merchants while walking headfirst into scams perpetrated by fraudsters.”
  • Unified commerce. “It’s no longer multichannel, or even omnichannel: it’s one channel. Every point of entry has to supply the same complete customer experience.”

II.    Business models. Retail is a brutally competitive business and shows no sign of becoming less so. The more efficiently every part of the enterprise works, the better the margins it delivers. Trends here include:

  • Customer analytics. “As available customer data becomes more and more granular, it will play a greater role both in personalizing the customer experience and optimizing the supply chain and product offerings.”
  • Subscriptions. “Recurring billing is popular with consumers and good for cash flow, but it also results in increased numbers of chargebacks. We need to find a way to offer greater stability.”
  • Enterprise marketplaces. “Particularly for brands not traditionally digital natives, this approach offers a quick pathway to establishing an online presence.”

Read More: New Valassis Data: Retailers Can Profit From Holiday Returns

III.    Infrastructure. The rules governing what a website is and does are changing rapidly. Here are some factors driving that change.

  • Visual commerce. “Expanding the ways a consumer interacts with a product image—clicking to see a garment on a model, a product information video, etc.—offers the closest possible analogue to an in-store experience, increasingly vital as channels merge into one.”
  • API-based commerce. “Also called ‘headless’ commerce, it means that the backend of the website—fulfillment, billing, CRM, etc.—does not have to change to accommodate innovation in what the customer sees. It’s a way to experiment without breaking things.”

IV.    Technologies to watch. There are some areas of development that we are pretty sure will be important, but less sure of when or how.

  • Artificial intelligence. “Rather than make sudden leaps forward, AI seems likely to develop steadily and gradually come into wider use.”
  • “Thing” commerce. “The logical next step in the Internet of Things: a consumer could order milk from a smart refrigerator. Before wide adoption, some major progress will have to be made in customer verification.”
