Finetech, Google’s local enterprise provider, has deployed Google Apps for Work for KBSL Technologies, adding to a portfolio of over 200 customers who have successfully signed up for this app. 

This seamless intelligent communication app, used by over five million businesses across the world, gives KBSL a more professional self-determination at work and saves time and money by boosting productivity and efficiency.  

“Providing integration through Google Apps for Work means giving KBSL additional leverage to flourish in the business world,” said Finetech CEO Clehan Pulle. “These integrations are free for users and bring a lot of economic benefits through seamless integration of connectivity within the business.” 

KBSL Information Technologies is a leading systems integrator in Sri Lanka, that designs, delivers and supports integrated business solutions to meet the cyber security needs of enterprises. It operates in verticals like financial services, telecom, public sector, leisure, transport and logistics. KBSL services leading companies in the country, including a top bank, telco and private hospital.

Silmy Ahamed, Managing Director of KBSL said, “We had to simplify the internal IT operations and make use of the innovations that are taking place with Google, with minimal friction due to the familiar interface. As such, this roll out has resulted in increased sales, innovative customer service, enhanced collaboration among employees, cost savings and overall improved customer experience for us.”  

Whilst commending Finetech for their professionalism and attentiveness, Ahamed said that KBSL has seen immediate ROI via time-savings, responses to emails and queries and other collaborative internal work. 

KBSL needed an innovative approach to the way they were collaborating with their customers and internally with their employees. “Google Apps for Work stood out as the obvious choice, providing us with a well-established platform to collaborate with each other and build on our philosophy of sharing profit, power and knowledge.”

Google Apps for Work is ideal for greater collaboration and knowledge sharing in real time between staff. Sharing files quickly and easily through Google+ and Google Drive – including Docs, Sheets and Slides has meant significant savings on time, and something that would typically take hours or even weeks to plan rotas and workforce management. This allows KBSL to adopt new technologies that rapidly allow access to information, greater choice and convenience.
