Vodafone offers Small and Medium Businesses a complete cloud-based communications and IT solution with Microsoft Office 365

Vodafone is to offer business customers a complete communications and IT solution with Microsoft Office 365 alongside its hosted telephony service, Vodafone One Net.

Vodafone One Net, which has over 1.4 million users across Europe, gives SMEs a simple, cost-effective, one bill solution for all fixed and mobile users. Intelligent call routing means that no matter what number a customer dials it can be answered on desk phones or mobile.

Tom Craig, Vodafone Business Services Director: “Small and medium sized businesses are the backbone of the European economy and it is imperative that we provide them with the tools to compete with big business in a challenging marketplace where customers expect fast responses 24/7. The combination of our fixed and mobile communications service with Office 365 helps deliver the benefits of agility, productivity and flexibility. This allows firms to respond extremely quickly to queries and puts them on a level playing field with larger companies.”

Marco Limena, VP, Business Services, Operator Channels at Microsoft: “Office 365 is our next generation cloud productivity service, combining the best productivity solutions in the market. Vodafone is an experienced partner in offering integrated communications and IT services to businesses, helping firms to do more with less. By extending their portfolio to include Office 365, Vodafone is set to give businesses a further boost in today’s challenging economic climate.”

Recent research from Vodafone highlighted that Small Businesses across Europe were missing out on new business opportunities because they were unable to respond to customer enquiries fast enough in a world where customers increasingly expect around the clock service.
