Barnardos NZ is a charity organization with 80 offices throughout New Zealand that provides services to children and families. They implemented Microsoft Lync to improve communication between their dispersed offices as their old phone systems were failing and it was difficult to communicate. Lync provides integrated phone services, video conferencing, and mobile integration. This has allowed for more efficient meetings, remote training sessions, and connectivity for even small offices. Key success factors included appointing a technical project manager, piloting with large offices first to demonstrate savings, and customizing training for different user skill levels.
