Working on the Move!

STS can help you set up a Virtual Private Network (VPN) that gives you and your staff remote secure access to your networking systems whilst on the move, or working from home.


By being able to work whilst they're away from the office brings obvious benefits to businesses looking to improve productivity, maximise time away on business or looking to introduce flexibile working arrangements and cut travel and time costs.



Case Study: Great Bear Distribution




A Virtual Private Network (VPN) is a cost effective means of giving staff secure, remote access to bespoke systems and office applications such as telephony, email and documents held on your network using an Internet connection.    It’s a technology that can play a vital role in ensuring communications are maintained between staff, suppliers and customers, and is a practical and cost effective approach to implementing long-term flexible working arrangements.      

     

Great Bear Distribution is a privately owned company operating from 20 locations in the UK, providing multi-user and dedicated warehousing and distribution solutions for a number of blue chip clients.  


The Management Team are forward looking and always considering ways to innovate.   With a mobile workforce operating throughout the whole of the UK, the company considered how they could give staff secure access to systems whilst they were on the move.  Through consultations with STS, a VPN solution was found to be the most appropriate answer to meet the clients’ needs. It could be rapidly deployed to give staff remote access to all of the business applications.


“We provided a CISCO VPN solution to provide the flexible access to the Great Bear network required by their mobile workforce. VPN’s eliminate the need for provisioning dedicated site to site circuits for small remote offices or home offices and provide flexibility for employees by allowing secure access to the corporate network from any location with an internet connection. The solution specified is scalable enabling the company to give other users access to the system as required,” said Richard Shelley, Solutions Sales Consultant.
