Connections has launched Digital Workplace – the all-in-one IT solution for Romanian companies

Connections, a leader on the Romanian digital transformation market with a presence in Bulgaria, Serbia, Germany, France, Austria, the Netherlands, USA, Saudi Arabia and Taiwan, has launched Digital Workplace, the first smart service on the Romanian market through which companies can have access to IT&C equipment, software products and specialized support at the same time.

Digital Workplace customers can now centralize their purchase of equipment (laptops, desktop or All in One system and networking), software licensing (Windows, Office, Teams) and IT support (remote and on-site) by purchasing a single service, with a single provider and without advance payments. Digital Workplace is also available for companies that have definitely switched to “work from home”.

“By accessing a suite of collaborative software, such as Microsoft TEAMS, communication between a company’s employees, through voice or video calls, has never been easier, practically two clicks away, at no extra cost. Moreover, sharing information of any kind will be just as easy to manage with access to the Microsoft OneDrive platform.

By purchasing this service, a company benefits both from a direct reduction of expenses by up to 30%, by reducing costs with its own IT department, as well as indirectly, through much easier management of the contract, given that it will have a single service provider, not three “, says Vlad Sgindar, BPM & ITO Manager Connections.

Digital Workplace powered by Connections is mainly aimed at small and medium-sized companies, with at least 20 employees, and is available in several variants, to meet the needs of all potential customers. The support teams are made up of certified staff with at least five years of experience in the IT&C field.

Digital Workplace also comes with a special offer – Mastercard digitize your business program. Through this partnership, Mastercard Business or Corporate cardholders can benefit from 6 months of free remote support, in the first year of the contract*.

“We are confident that Digital Workplace will be a service to which the market will respond very well, through transparency and predictability of costs, as well as through the simplicity of purchasing it. Another advantage is the flexibility of the service, the customer having the opportunity to upgrade either for all users or only for some of them, depending on their needs. Communication between teams will be easier and internal operating costs will decrease. Our clients will be able to focus on the activities that matter, and we will take care of the IT issues “, added Vlad Sgindar.

In addition to the standard Digital Workplace packages, customers can access other IT solutions developed by Connections.

Connections, a UiPath Gold partner, has successfully implemented robotic automation processes in a variety of industries, from FMCG/GPG and banking companies to accounting firms, BPO companies, healthcare, and retail companies.  The robotic processes targeted operational departments, where flows related to monthly reports, vacation management, entering of invoices in the accounting software, enrolment of new employees, but also back-office processes in the banking industry (establishment and collection of seizures, account management) were automated (establishment and lift of garnishments, expense account management, payment management – procure-to-play, etc.).

* The offer is valid for the purchase of at least five packages (one package being composed of equipment, software and support) 12 months. The free months are: 1,2,3, 10,11,12)
