Manufacturer Siemens Flow Instruments has made substantial time savings by choosing TeamSeer to track teams and manage absences. TeamSeer has centralised administration and provided managers with an effective tool for day-to-day team and absence management.

Siemens Flow Instruments had been grappling with tracking teams across the organisation. Administrators were storing team information in several large databases and spreadsheets. This made team and absence tracking a time consuming activity for staff, and ensuring that the information on file was up-to-date was a big challenge. Before using TeamSeer, holiday approval was a paper-based process, giving managers no visibility of planned team absences when approving holidays. In the past this had led to potentially damaging absence clashes that are now avoided.

TeamSeer now stores online all the information Siemens Flow Instruments used to hold across several databases and spreadsheets. Centralising all of this information has made data instantly accessible, and, because of the unique way TeamSeer works, Siemens team tracking and absence management is now automated and always up-to-date. "TeamSeer saves me a lot of time on a daily basis," comments Elaine Hendrie, HR Officer at Siemens Flow Instruments, and Richard Johnson, General Manager Administration at Siemens Flow Instruments, points out "TeamSeer gives me access to any team information or reports I want straight away, saving me and my staff valuable time".

TeamSeer has automated absence approvals and managers now make fully informed decisions when approving holidays. Richard Johnson continues, "Before using TeamSeer there was no way for me to see other planned absences for the same period, this in the past has led to frustrating clashes which TeamSeer now avoids". Today TeamSeer gives every member of staff an instant overview of the whole team.

TeamSeer is committed to providing software that helps focus teams by building efficient, and collaborative office environments. At Siemens, this has noticeably been the case. Richard Johnson concludes, "TeamSeer has been excellent and receives my highest recommendation, we could never imagine returning to our old system".
