Today we welcomed our 100th Samaritans branch to Three Rings, meaning that half of all Samaritans branches in the UK are now using the system. It’s good to know we’re even more popular than the old favourite of pens and paper!

The 100th branch is Leicester, who run a managed rota and have been using a DOS-based program to automatically assign shifts for the last 20 years, showing a serious dedication to making life easier on their rota secretaries! Thanks to the Autopopulator functionality we introduced in Milestone Iridium, Leicester are now trialling Three Rings against an updated version of their DOS program to see which one best matches their needs.
While they’re making their choice, Leicester are making use of our standard one calendar month free trial to see how well Three Rings suits them without any obligation until the 1st of March. That’s fine by us – while we love it when the organisations come to us are already sure Three Rings is the right choice for them, it’s equally wonderful to see a branch taking the time to experiment and make absolutely certain that they’re getting the system that best suits their style.
We’ve only been offering Three Rings to Samaritans since 2008, and we’d like to think that reaching the milestone of supporting 50% of branches in so little time is speaks for the quality of our features itself, but no matter what organisation you’re from, if you’re not sure Three Rings is right for you, you can always follow Leicester Samaritans’ example and use both the standard free trial and our special Anniversary Discount to find out!
