PGiCOS Financial Benefits
Premiere Global helps companies of all sizes automate, simplify and improve their businesses through the application of communication technologies. Specifically, PGiCOS empowers enterprise customers with new ways to communicate with, market to and service their constituents, enabling them to increase the productivity of their knowledge workers, to improve corporate efficiency, to ensure regulatory compliance, to enhance customer loyalty and retention, and to create a fluid dialogue with all their constituents. PGI estimates that it saved its enterprise customers in excess of $1 billion in 2006.
PGI's enterprise customers benefit from the added speed and reliability PGiCOS brings to their high-volume, mission-critical business communications. Enterprise customers also typically incur a lower total cost of ownership than alternatives like premise-based equipment, as they benefit from PGI's multi-tenant architecture and the economies it garners from delivering more than six billion communications annually.
PGiCOS's on-demand model enables enterprise customers to forego capital expenditures in exchange for cost-effective, variable operating expenses. For example, customers of all size take advantage of PGiCOS’s high throughput to ensure their communications are delivered quickly. PGiCOS’s on-demand model enables these customers to access and utilize its high bandwidth – and pay for it – only as needed.
Finally, PGI’s enterprise customers forego worries of technology obsolescence and version upgrade and control, while still operating in an enterprise class, fault-tolerant, globally- redundant environment.
