Using the Verizon Business IP network, all of Helly Hansen's offices can access vital business applications such as Enterprise Resource Planning and video conferencing. Helly Hansen also is trialing a Verizon Business Voice-over-IP service at its headquarters and intends to eventually deploy VoIP globally.
Explained Lonnum: "We already had a MPLS network in place but decided to re-tender. Verizon Business was able to offer us twice the bandwidth, the best technical support and a dedicated account team, all at an extremely competitive rate. It was no contest really."
John Irvine, vice president of International Marketing for Verizon Business, said: "Helly Hansen demands a lot from its network and needs a secure and robust service to run its critical applications and programmes across all of its sites around the world. Verizon Business was able to meet its rigorous demands today, and also provide the extra flexibility and scalability Helly Hansen needs to continue developing its global business in the future."
Norwegian Helly Hansen is a global leader in action-utility wear for survival, work and sport. Innovation has been a foundation of Helly Hansen since the company established in 1877, and its technical outdoor products are designed to be an enabling layer between human will and nature's forces.
Local-to-global IP networks service provider Verizon Business, a unit of Verizon Communications, is a leading provider of advanced communications and information technology (IT) solutions to large business and government customers worldwide.
