Getronics implements advanced unified communications to deliver cost and business performance benefits as a showcase for customers.
Company Profile: The Getronics family is an ICT Services group consisting of the Getronics and Connectis brands and is owned by the AURELIUS Group, a holding company headquartered in Munich, Germany.

THE WORKSPACE IS THE CENTRE OF EVERYTHING WE DO AND WE HAVE THE FLEXIBILITY AND EXPERTISE TO PROVIDE TAILORED SOLUTIONS TO SUIT OUR CUSTOMER’S SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS."
