Situation

The employment market is at its most competitive. Workers now place greater emphasis on job satisfaction, work-life balance, well-being, and flexibility than ever before. Talented UC engineers are highly sought after. We found there to be 23,000 UC engineer vacancies globally on LinkedIn.

The Challenge for UC Teams

Companies need to do whatever they can to attract, retain and motivate their experienced and valuable UC professionals. At large enterprises, the day-to-day management of a UC platform requires a large volume of moves, adds, changes and delete. That demands extensive manual, repetitive, error-prone work. UC engineers will have significantly reduced job satisfaction if they are spending a major portion of their day with this tedious work.

Solution – UC Provisioning Automation

Companies that adopt a provisioning automation solution, such as Akkadian Provisioning Manager, will find it easier to retain UC engineers. By giving them an easy-to-deploy tool that eliminates manual work, engineers will be less likely to leave, and it will be easier to hire for these highly sought-after positions. A UC service management solution that automates complex workflows, will increase job satisfaction of your UC team by eliminating manual work and allowing them to work on more strategic projects. A win-win situation for both the employee and employer.
