Located in Kerala, India, the Somatheeram Ayurveda Hospital with a Resort Ambiance is the best place for not only visual rejuvenation but also physical and mental rejuvenation. Through Ayurveda, Somatheeram provides means to shed all worries, anxieties, and illnesses.
With the objective of combining Ayurveda and Tourism, the Somatheeram Research Institute & Ayurveda Hospital was founded in the year 1985, thus making it the world’s first-ever Ayurvedic Hospital in a Resort Ambiance. The Somatheeram Group of Companies came into being with the efforts of the Founder Managing Director, and Architect Mr. Baby Mathew.
Somatheeram has multiple resorts, located at different locations. Multi-location communication can prove to be an expensive affair if communication devices are not chosen wisely. Their dependence on public service providers for communication added to their woes of communication between their resorts.
To elaborate:
- Feasibility of existing telephony: Existing telephony became impracticable considering the frequent communication between multi-located properties.
- Managing different protocols: Interface with different telecom networks requires managing different protocols, which can be cumbersome, time, and energy-consuming.
- Absence of modern phone features: The lack of advanced features like Abbreviated Dialing, Call Pick Up, and Internal Call Restriction, prevented them from becoming efficient in day-to-day operations.
- Transition to modern communication with existing Infrastructure: Their investment in existing infrastructure needed protection while also a provision had to be made to modernize the communication using existing infrastructure.
Matrix analyzed the challenges of communications for Somatheeram, and crafted a solution that was the best fit. The solution offered was based on the fundamentals of Multi-location communication solutions. This included the Matrix range of IP-PBX (ETERNITY GENX12S) and GSM Gateway (SIMADO GFX11 and SIMADO GFX11 4G) that optimized the feasibility of communication and helped the firm become more efficient.
