Espoo, Finland - Nokia has announced that Gi Group, a leading Italian multinational company dedicated to the human resources market, has chosen Nokia Lumia as its business smartphone, replacing BlackBerry. The company offers temporary employment, staff leasing, research and selection, executive search, outplacement, HR consulting and training in 19 countries around the world.
Gi Group has already provided more than 800 employees in Italy with Nokia Lumia smartphones, including the eye-catching Nokia Lumia 925, the versatile Nokia Lumia 820 and the bright and bold Nokia Lumia 620, with plans to expand to all of the countries where the company operates.
The ability to seamlessly operate with Gi Groups Microsoft Outlook mail and Microsoft Office applications was an important factor in the choice of Nokia Lumia, which is built on Microsofts Windows Phone 8 platform. Using Microsoft InTune, the companys IT organization can manage the Nokia Lumia smartphones remotely, installing new apps and services and remotely wiping confidential and personal data if an employees smartphone is lost.
Our people need to be able to connect with colleagues and access and edit Microsoft Office documents, wherever they happen to be, said Barbara Cottini, HR manager at Gi Group. They also need to access our customer relationship management systems as well as their professional social media networks without having to have a laptop with them at all times. Nokia Lumia offered us a unique way of doing this, with elegant, modern smartphones and a user experience that is immediately familiar.
As a company which truly understands the importance of making a personal connection with employees, contractors and clients, Gi Group also values the ability to use Microsoft Lync for conference calling and is evaluating using Skype, together with the great cameras in Nokia Lumia, to enable video interviews with applicants when they cannot meet face to face.
Nokia Lumia also offers HERE Maps with LiveSight to help Gi Group people feel at home, wherever they happen to be as well as HERE Drive, with free, turn-by-turn navigation to help them get to their next meeting.
Paola Cavallero, general manager for Italy at Nokia said, Gi Group is a great example of how Nokia Lumia enables smartphones to become an integral part of any companys IT infrastructure, working seamlessly with their corporate systems and freeing their people to work effectively wherever they are.

The Nokia Lumia range offers business users a true Microsoft Outlook and Office experience out-of-the-box.

Combined with a design that stands out, business class navigation, security thats fit for business, and a range of Qi standard wireless charging solutions, the Nokia Lumia is the best smartphone for businesses.
