The ESI platform delivers tools and fea­tures that have streamlined the operation allowing automated communication to our customers through E-mail and SMS. Remote engineer access to systems has also delivered a major time saving to the operator staff."

"We have worked extremely closely with Neil and his team over the last year to deliver a be­spoke solution to specifically meet the needs of GB Monitoring", says Paul Dodds, Managing Director of ESI (UK).

The ability to monitor site accounts, maintain key holder information, remote test and extensive reporting for audit trail fills a ma­jor area of demand for our end users."
