SBA names Chesapeake "Family Owned Maryland Small Business of the Year"

 

Chesapeake has been selected by the Small Business Administration’s Baltimore District Office to receive the 2010 Maryland Family Owned Small Business of the Year award.

After a rigorous evaluation process, we were notified on March 1, 2010 of our selection as the award recipient. The award will be presented to Chesapeake at an awards breakfast on Friday, May 21, 2010 at Martin’s West in Woodlawn, Maryland.

 

SBA District Director Stephen D. Umberger said “Maryland’s small business community is fortunate to benefit from your strong entrepreneurial leadership and your tireless advocacy efforts.”
 

It means a lot for us to win the award in our 25th year of business, especially during a poor economy.  We're honored to be recognized. It's a reflection of the sustained high performance of our entire team and their tireless commitment to serving our loyal customers.

CMD, Baltimore-based Call Center provider,
named OAISYS “Installation of the Month”

 

Chesapeake recently installed an OAISYS Tracer Screen Recording Server for CMD, a long time OAISYS and Toshiba customer.

CMD, which provides call center services for the healthcare and higher education markets, originally deployed voice recording on a Toshiba Strata CIX back in 2006.  They use the recordings to monitor and grade their agents.

 

Desktop Screen Video, captured by new Tracer screen recording software, is used to verify information entered into the system and monitor agent activity during calls.  Adding screen recording capabilities required an upgrade to CMD's existing Tracer software. Chesapeake worked with OAISYS to devise a plan that minimized downtime and ensured that work took place outside normal business hours.
 

The new Screen Recording Server was used temporarily for voice while Chesapeake upgraded CMD’s original version 4 system. We then moved the tap cards back to the original hardware now equipped with version 6. The new Screen Recording Server was then setup and configured the next day to immediately begin desktop screen recording on the agents’ computers.

Let’s talk about how your business can benefit from voice and screen recording. Contact us today at (800) 787-4848 or jnolte@chesapeaketelephone.com.

Chesapeake and Toshiba’s

National Accounts Program simplifies your U.S. Market telecom management 

 

Organizations with multiple regional or national offices often find it difficult to coordinate telecom management tasks among locations. Overlooking this situation could result in inconsistent technology implementations, upgrades and feature sets that could cause problems.

With its relationships with the industry’s leading equipment suppliers and service providers, Chesapeake offers you a single point of contact for orders and service calls, and predictable pricing -- regardless of where your new Toshiba systems or telecom services need to be managed.

We accomplish all this by leveraging our nationwide network of certified Toshiba dealers who locally install and maintain your phone systems. We also arrange for the installation of your voice and data cabling at each location. We’ll ensure consistent results among all your locations and even manage the daily calls that come in from the site.

It pays to get us involved early in your planning process. We’ll work with your partners to get the job done right. For more information, contact us today at (800) 787-4848 or jnolte@chesapeaketelephone.com.
