Outsourcery to perform ultimate outsource as it enters administration

What will happen to their customers?

This illustrates how difficult it is to build a profitable business purely based on a recurring revenue stream. This is made especially tricky, given the amount of investment that is required from the outset to build a cloud based platform like this. The main issue I believe was down to focus from the outset as it only become clear recently that the organisation planned to focus on Skype for Business and Unified Communications. What will happen to all of their existing customers given the critical service they are currently providing? Will it just be switched off or will they try and migrate them to other providers?

Outsourcery: We've had offers for our assets (and, er, shareholders might get nothing)

Hosted Skype for Business

We've been trying to reach out to see if we can help Outsourcery with this situation and help their customers who have signed up their Hosted Unified Communications platform based on Skype for Business. We launched VIA 4 years ago, helping over 250 customers in 20 countries worldwide to migrate to Skype for Business in the cloud and replace their onsite telephone systems. We are privately owned, privately funded and profitable. I believe we can help Outsourcery by reducing it’s overheads and more importantly, their beleaguered customers, by ensuring a critical service, such as their telephone system continues to be operational.
