King's College London
"A-level results day represents our contact centre’s busiest time in the academic calendar. We can receive up to a thousand student enquiries within the space of an hour … storm helped us to better meet this challenge. Its effectively unlimited capacity for contact handling, with vast numbers of simultaneous enquiries queued in the cloud, enabled us to automatically scale up our contact centre’s capacity and address the excess traffic. Furthermore, the College only paid for the actual capacity it used; we were thus able to respond to 99% of enquiries whilst comfortably staying within budget.”
