Hay Group selects iPass for its enterprise mobility solution

iPass Inc.‘s enterprise mobility service has been selected to help Hay Group reduce the overall costs of managing a highly mobile workforce, while helping secure intellectual property assets. The award-winning service combines worldwide 3G mobile broadband networks, Wi-Fi hotspots, hotel Ethernet and dial-up access with comprehensive management control over connectivity, devices, and costs.

Hay Group consultants can now simply, securely and conveniently connect from home, when they travel, and at worldwide client sites, leveraging the largest mobile network in the world with over 140,000 enterprise-grade broadband venues. iPass also helps Hay Group enforce security and compliance policies by ensuring that antivirus and security applications are up to date before allowing consultants to connect into the corporate network over the VPN.

"Forward-thinking, global companies demand enterprise mobility solutions that give visibility and control over user connections and costs no matter where its employees happen to be when they are connecting," said Steven Wastie, senior vice president, marketing, iPass. "Hay Group is meeting employee demands for anytime, anywhere connectivity while improving the productivity of its mobile workforce."

"We're constantly watching our bottom line at Hay Group and we noticed our mobility costs skyrocketing. We needed a better way to get visibility of and manage these costs," said Daniel Little, director of customer support at Hay Group. "Once we moved over to the iPass service, it was a real game changer. From a technology standpoint, iPass just works! We don't have any support calls. And, from a process standpoint, we have eliminated day passes, hotel connectivity charges, mobility support costs -- all those black budget items that ended up on expense reports that no one understood."
