Digital dictation is a tool that has been used for years at Beswicks Legal and something they wished to continue using. But after consulting with their resident dictation provider, the firm felt they were being strong-armed into upgrading at a significant cost. In addition to their already overpriced annual support contract and additional mobile licenses.

Learning about Diktamen and our bespoke cost-effective dictation solution, it was clear that our customizable cloud solution was best suited for their needs.  Bewsicks were very impressed with the Diktamen solution and the speed of delivery, in addition to the significant cost savings from the outset.

A trial was set up for a small set of users at Beswicks to test and fine-tune the bespoke solution to their satisfaction. Shortly into the trial, the IT team at Beswicks gave the go-ahead for firm-wide roll out – as the initial feedback was very positive and it was clear Diktamen was the best way forward.

Tim Knight, Business Operations Manager at Beswicks says “Working with Diktamen has been a great pleasure. We were able to reduce the cost for Dictation significantly. The project and support team are super-fast with modifications to our system – and it’s refreshing that they do these configurations at no extra cost”

Joe DiCarlo, Vice President of Business Development at Diktamen says “Providing better value for clients is something we set out to do from the beginning, so it is great to see Beswicks benefiting from our modern approach. There is no longer a monopoly for unjustifiably expensive digital dictation in the UK, which our clients are extremely pleased about”.

With the firm growing and looking to further support team members, especially fee-ears working on the move from site to site supporting clients – Orme Law started investigating options for cost-effective mobile dictation solutions which incorporate workflow and approached Diktamen some months back.

After a demonstration of the Diktamen and conversation of the reduced costs for implementation of the solution, Orme Law requested trail for a small cluster of the team.

Once the pilot was installed, users quickly realised the benefits of Diktamen – and liked the efficiency gained when working on the move. Authors found they could send jobs while commuting from client sites, getting documents drafted faster. Secretaries found they can prioritise jobs and share workloads with team members, for quicker turnaround.

Happy with the feedback received from the users, Orme Law chose Diktamen as the best solution for their requirements and continue to add users as they grow.

Alan S M Orme, Founder, and Solicitor at Orme Law comments ”Supplying our staff with supportive productivity tools is something we take seriously, as helping them helps our clients. The seamless pilot set up and positive feedback from users made the decision to choose Diktamen easy. I look forward to working with Joe DiCarlo and the Diktamen team.”

Joe DiCarlo, Channel Sales Director at Diktamen says ”Working with Alan and the Orme Law team has been a pleasure and it’s great to hear of the benefits users realised from the short trail. At Diktamen our main objective is to support clients to alleviate workflow processes, so I am excited to hear of the further benefits found after deployment.”

Always looking to provide the most efficient client support, the firm spent 18 months looking for a faster way to dictate both in the office and remotely – allowing for clients to benefit from faster communications. The firm searched the market for a viable solution but found vendors either too expensive or not right for their needs.

After hearing about Diktamen via word of mouth, the Hawkins team was very impressed with the potential efficiencies their staff could gain via the dictation solution.

A small pilot was set up for Hawkins Family Law’s fee earners and administration staff – as a ‘test run’ before installing the solution. Users quickly fed back very positive comments on Diktamen, with fee-earners benefiting from the ability to send dictations digitally from court and away from the office, and the administration team the ability to manage their workloads.

Michelle Knight, Practice Manager at Hawkins Family Law say’s “Our business is all about customer service, and at Hawkins Family Law we pride ourselves on providing excellent service at the highest standard. Diktamen has supported us in keeping this promise, and our clients are now receiving faster communications – which was a key priority for us. Joe and the Diktamen team have been brilliant all the way through this stress-free process. I would be happy to recommend Diktamen in the future.”

Joseph DiCarlo, Channel Sales Director at Diktamen says “Diktamen is establishing a standing for quality in the UK, something that we are reputed for in the Nordics. Word of mouth referrals set the tone, and we deliver exactly what we promise. We are happy to be supporting Michelle @ Hawkins Family Law and her great team with our solutions, which are quickly gaining a trustworthy reputation for being a sound investment in the UK.”

Digital Dictation is a valuable tool that continues to be utilised daily throughout Hempsons’ London, Manchester, Harrogate and Newcastle offices.

Operating their legacy technology was perceived to no longer be an investment but a huge annual expense that needed to be reviewed.

Fresh to the UK market, Diktamen, established in 2007, and market-leading digital dictation provider in the Nordics, makes switching vendor straightforward and stress-free by being agile and treating clients with the utmost integrity.

Hempsons, impressed by the quality and responsiveness of their solution design, focusing on their user’s advice, and client needs, decided to roll out Diktamen Digital Dictation firm-wide, starting with their London office with immediate effect.

Anna Lawton, IT Director at Hempsons says ‘We had embarked on a number of projects including replacing the firm’s infrastructure with IaaS, rebuilding the entire environment and all incumbent products to best practice on the new high performant platform which would enable the firm to move to a more agile way of working.  Once this was complete and after a settling period, the next stage involved reviewing each application in terms of suitability, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness for the firm.  Digital dictation was one of the products we reviewed.  The whole process with the Diktamen team was seamless.  From Proof of Concept to GO LIVE they were attentive and delivered what they promised’.

Joe DiCarlo, UK Channel Sales Director at Diktamen says ‘Hempsons purchase of one of our innovative products is just the beginning. We see it as the start of a partnership and beautiful relationship that will grow and strengthen with time. The experience Hempsons has with Diktamen throughout this partnership means everything to us and is how we ensure we will thrive together. No software solution can reach its full potential without a great team. We are proud to work with a group of exceptionally talented and dedicated individuals.’
