Voice of the Customer

“Lots of our teams here are working on complex technologies and integration projects. However, most of our best team members are not technical in nature. We use Enginuity to automate all our systems, technologies and testing, it is really good. We no long battle with coding errors and constantly needing to change scripts or increase the team size like using our old test automation tools. Pinnacle allows my whole team to automate their testing, and we are able to so much more testing”

“we focus on ensuring the general public are able to successfully and confidently use the public transportation network. We want ALL of the public to enjoy a usable, performant and seamless experience anywhere on the network. Our systems are using the latest industry technologies and integrations to deliver digital services to the traveling public, although as a business team we are not technical. We used to spend lots of our time on IT projects. Since working with Pinnacle my whole team has more time to focus on our jobs, the public user experience and the acceptance of change without all the effort to support IT. Now use Authorise to automate much of our UAT testing, along with business processes and reporting. Best of all, as business users we can understand and build our own automation to have virtual workers run activities for us. I am happy they that work all day and all night on supporting IT projects so I no longer have to”

“I have know a number of the team at Pinnacle for many years, from delivery of transportation programs in Australia and Europe. We have recently engaged Pinnacle for some consultancy here that focused on trouble shooting and improving our current delivery. They helped us to target and close out over 80% of our current defects in the upcoming project releases and with in production. Resolving our technical backlog issues was a problem for us for a long time, and Pinnacle completed the outcome in just 2 releases. The cost of the defects we were carrying was significant, incurring contractual financial penalties. Working with the Pinnacle team meant that we are now no longer incurring production financial penalties, and the savings made in just the last 2 months have more than covered the engagement costs many times over. We will continue using their automation services, as they continue to provide me with savings in this and other parts of my business”
