How we have helped UK businesses take control of quarantine.

Client Emails Lost in Quarantine

A Manchester solicitors practice had legitimate client emails disappearing into quarantine without notification. Staff were unaware messages had been held, leading to missed deadlines and client complaints.

Quarantine digest notifications deployed with twice-daily delivery. Self-service portal configured. Zero legitimate client emails missed in the following six months. Client complaint rate dropped to zero.

IT Team Overwhelmed by Quarantine Queries

A Birmingham technology firm had their IT helpdesk receiving 30 to 40 quarantine release requests per week. Staff were unable to access their own quarantine, creating a bottleneck.
