Eye-Able and the German Red Cross
In our partnership with Eye-Able and Microsoft Azure, we provided assistive technologies for the visually impaired to the German Red Cross (DRK). Eye-Able uses assistive technologies such as screen readers, magnifiers, and text to speech software to improve digital accessibility.
We look forward to working together to advance digital accessibility in the education sector and beyond.
Digital inclusion and accessibility are vital to the DRK. Eye-Able ensures that critical services such as disaster relief, healthcare and emergency services are accessible to all, regardless of capability or circumstance. Eye-Able is making an amazing contribution to DRK’s impact on society.
International Orthodox Christian Charities – MD, USA
International Orthodox Christian Charities (IOCC) aims to enhance their operations and security. They sought assistance from Microsoft TSI (Tech for Social Impact) who recommended SoftwareOne.
The SoftwareOne Impact team standardised communication with Microsoft Teams, migrated and optimised SharePoint to meet IOCC's specific needs, and deployed Intune for improved security.
As a result, amid the Ukraine conflict, IOCC's staff were able to collaborate and coordinate more efficiently across different countries and enhance device security against cyber threats.
With our new collaboration tools, we have been able to mobilise more quickly, especially in areas facing a crisis.
PowerToFly
In 2019 SoftwareOne started its collaboration with PowerToFly, initially in the USA and now globally. PowerToFly is a diversity network and sourcing partner.
Our collaboration has many benefits, such as providing us with diversity sourcing, where PowerToFly sources candidates for any of our job requisition. This has led to more diverse pool of candidates from different groups and backgrounds.
SoftwareOne is now recognised as an employer of choice, as seen in the recent inclusion of SoftwareOne in the America's Greatest Workplaces for Women 2023 (newsweek.com).
