Ashley Furniture Increases Productivity, while Decreasing Operating Costs

Furniture manufacturer and retailer increased productivity and expanded globally

Furthermore, the company’s demanding 24/7 parameters for service-call response necessitated a solution that could be supported and improved with its own in-house team.
