Specsavers

Established in 1984, Specsavers is the largest privately-owned optical group in the world. It remains a family-owned business on a mission to change people’s lives through high-quality, affordable optical and hearing care. Despite selling 510 million contact lenses and more than 22.1 million glasses frames in FY21/22, maintaining a family-style business on an enterprise scale is no easy task.

Challenges

• Ensuring the remote support solution is compliant to the organisation’s security and privacy standards.
• Using remote support that was fast and reliable, so IT issues did not disrupt the employee or end-customer experience in-store.
• Making sure remote support could be used across all ten markets where Specsavers operates and could scale alongside the organisation.

Solution

Specsavers chose TeamViewer Tensor with Conditional Access for superior performance, reliability, and an extra layer of security in their remote support operations. In addition to computers, TeamViewer is used for secure remote access to in store devices such as the patient management system, so opticians and retail assistants can run a seamless store experience.
