Yorktel Saves a Financial Insttuton Hundreds of Thousands in Videoconferencing Planning, Implementaton Costs

Yorktel worked with a large Financial Services Company operating in 16 countries after Hurricane Sandy exposed the need for more flexible videoconferencing and remote work capabilities. The company was struggling with an aging proprietary video conferencing system, room hijacking, and limited interoperability, while also preparing to equip a new 12-story building in Jersey City.

Yorktel provided professional services, integration, managed services, staffing, and maintenance, implementing Cisco Telepresence across 130+ spaces and building a $900,000 professional studio, along with digital signage and video NOC monitoring/support. Yorktel also resolved a Cisco-Lync/Skype for Business incompatibility with Acano, saved the client hundreds of thousands in construction rework costs, reduced ISDN usage by nearly 98% from 5,300 hours to 110 hours per month, and grew management coverage from 143 to nearly 240 endpoints.
