Worldwide communication problem solved for WS Atkins

Recently WS Atkins upgraded their user licences to a site licence, so impressed where they with Business Collaborator.

And here's a recent anedote from them on how useful they are finding it on projects around the world...

When working with a team of people in Egypt, WS Atkins needed to be able to exchange information and documents on a regular basis. They found this impossible using the phone system due to a poor service. They were also held up by the mail service which was very unreliable. Even email proved intermittent. The best way WS Atkins found of exchanging documents with colleagues in Egypt was to use BC, providing a quick and reliable means of communication.
