If I were to describe Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise with a few words, I would probably say solution-orientated, efficient and easy to work with.

Le Sfide

  • Needed an application which allows guests to access hotel services directly from their smartphones or mobile devices
  • Be the first hotel in the world to deploy the Mobile Guest Softphone application service for their guests
  • Quality WiFi is critical in Sweden where hotel guests complain in under 5 minutes when they experience connectivity issues.
  • The Winn Hotel Group had aging infrastructure that impacted bandwidth capability. 
  • The group capitalized on the implementation of a Softphone solution at the Lund hotel to start discussions with Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise about a one-provider, unified solution to upgrade and simplify data and communications infrastructure at all their hotels and headquarters.

Risultati

  • All communications run through a “media gateway” powered by a centralized PBX at the group’s headquarters, simplifying management and maintenance, and facilitating communications across the portfolio

  • The new switches deliver 4 times more bandwidth for high-quality wireless connectivity at all 14 sites
  • The Mobile Guest Softphone was technically easy to integrate

 

Financial benefits

  • The Winn Hotel Group saved money since there is no cost for cabling and installing phones in all the rooms
  • The communications network solution capitalizes on existing infrastructure, like cabling and handsets, avoiding unnecessary costs

User experience benefits
