About The Old Spaghetti Factory (“OSF”)
Key Challenges
OSF wanted to streamline network and physical security to improve productivity, enhance safety and offer a superior guest and employee experience.
“We wanted to streamline operations and eliminate any roadblocks to grow our business,” said Travis Crownover, Director of IT at OSF.
Among the challenges facing their department:
- Network: The OSF IT team wanted to standardize network equipment across all their locations to increase efficiencies and reduce troubleshooting.
- Phone systems: Aging phone systems made operations difficult due to poor call quality and a lack of flexibility when systems failed.
- Physical security: Legacy alarm systems were complex to manage and maintain.
Solutions
OSF implemented Interface’s comprehensive suite of network, voice and managed intrusion solutions to modernize outdated systems and streamline operations across their 42 locations.
“Interface’s restaurant-network-in-a-box has allowed us to upgrade to a high-speed, secure network at all our locations and reduced the need for our employees to spend time troubleshooting network issues.” The restaurant-network-in-a-box guarantees 99% uptime and includes 4G wireless WAN failover.
OSF also chose to enhance their phone system with Interface’s business VoIP solution. “We had really outdated phones at all of our units. Interface’s phone system gives us improved call quality and the auto-attendant feature allows us to handle customer calls at scale,” says Crownover.
To improve security, Interface deployed its managed alarm solution. The new solution included a mobile application that enabled OSF employees to arm or disarm alarm systems via smartphones and easily handle alarm systems at any location they are deployed to without additional training.
