London, UK (PRWEB) October 12, 2007 -- BigHand, the Microsoft Gold Certified partner specialising in voice productivity for professional service organisations, has today announced that following an initial head-to-head pilot between BigHand and Winscribe, BigHand3 has been rolled out to 200 users in the London office of K&L Gates.
Andrew Collier, Head of IS Operations Europe at K&L Gates comments: "Over the next eighteen months the firm will move its IS infrastructure to a more robust centralised architecture, with remote access and particularly Citrix forming a vital component, therefore it was essential for us to get this decision right. Track record was everything in getting Digital Dictation working over Citrix and BigHand are leaders in this area.:
He continued, "The implementation of BigHand3 is an integral part in our process to ensure the firm is operating in the most efficient way possible. BigHand's Telephony module was certainly favourable in our evaluation between the two products. Using BigHand technology, lawyers can record dictations remotely and instantly submit to office based support for transcription, using their cell phone."
Collier added, "BigHand is leading the way in voice productivity, offering a comprehensive suite of mobility options plus thin client support; the combination is a very strong offering."
In a move to further streamline working practice and increase efficiency, K&L Gates plans to integrate BigHand3 with its document management system.
