Integrated communication solutions provider, Telefonica will be deploying Microsoft Office 365 and Yammer technologies across its operating businesses to employees worldwide. With the deployment of these technologies, Telefónica will be allowing its people to develop new products and services for its customers and markets while spending less time on infrastructure support of collaboration services.
Adrian Steel, European Production Hub Lead and Global Director at Telefónica said, "Telefonica's relationship and transformation journey with Microsoft has brought us to this very exciting milestone. Over the past 18 months, we have built very strong foundations and are now ready to move to the cloud. Deploying Office 365 and Yammer is this next step in bringing our global workforce to the forefront of seamless communication and collaboration while still operating at the level of speed and execution we’re known for."
Kurt DelBene, President of Microsoft's Office Division said, "Companies are looking to bring people together across organizational silos and geographies to drive innovation and reduce costs. Moving to the cloud with Office 365 and Yammer makes it easier and faster to collaborate regardless of location or organizational structure. Telefónica is a great example of a forward-thinking organization that understands how the cloud can power its business."
The deployment is also expected to reduce the costs of collaboration services by up to 20 percent while supporting the company's specific security and privacy requirements.
