| Verizon Business Selected by Helly Hansen Verizon Business has announced its selection by Helly Hansen, the global manufacturer of clothing and survival products, to provide a Managed Private IP network connecting its major offices around the world. The MPLS network will provide secure and reliable connections between Helly Hansen's mission critical headquarters in Oslo, Norway and seven other major sites in Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, the U.K. and the U.S. Helly Hansen employs more than 700 employees in 17 countries around the world, all of whom rely on applications and communications tools hosted at its headquarters in Norway to run daily business operations. The company selected Verizon Business not only to manage the data network connecting its global sites, but also provide a secure gateway to ensure that vital business applications from headquarters are always available. Verizon Business has installed two routers and dual access lines, dramatically increasing Helly Hansen's network capacity to support current and projected voice and data needs. Using the Verizon Business IP network, all of Helly Hansen's offices can access vital business applications such as Enterprise Resource Planning and videoconferencing. Helly Hansen also is trialing a Verizon Business Voice over IP service at its headquarters and intends to eventually deploy VoIP globally. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Networking News :: home page |
