- IP Telephony: BanaBay required a flexible telephony system that could scale with the business. Communication between multiple countries can quickly become costly.

This allowed the global workforce to connect to the resources they required on demand 24/7.

Functions such as self-service password management for all of their diverse services, user & service logging, asset management and network monitoring.

About BanaBay
BanaBay specialises in the production of premium quality fruit, with employees worldwide. Communication is therefore fundamental to the successful operation of the business and Banabay is dependent on having a robust and resilient IT infrastructure. After several years of rapid continuous growth, Banabay faced the challenge of applying the appropriate technology to support communication and collaboration within the business. The main areas that presented a challenge to BanaBay were telephony cost, internet reliability, IT support, collaboration capability and the absolute need for business continuity and disaster recovery.
