The Internet channel has become a vital communications and marketing tool for most companies. It is therefore essential that customers have constant access to corporate sites.

Delivering continuous online services, however, is both complex and time-consuming. To overcome these challenges, Sony decided to outsource the management of its European Internet computing centre to Computacenter

The partnership will not only save Sony an estimated 20 per cent on its previous overheads but will also enable the electronics giant to concentrate on its core business and improve service levels.
