What Our Clients Say About Our Consulting, Software and Hardware Services
Dr Lawrence Rudski
In 2019, and even more so during the pandemic, we continued — as we have for decades — to innovate. In this effort, we could not have adopted mixed reality technologies without the support and expertise of the AGC team. We are grateful to have them by our side for this important shift in our healthcare system.
Gino Levesque
The successful implementation of mixed reality technology in our plants relies on the commitment of our employees to operational mastery and the promotion of these promising new tools for our future. To achieve this, we were able to count on the expertise and agility of the specialists from AGC. Their contribution has been key to the success we have enjoyed since our shift in 2019.
Mario Monty
In 2019, our IT department acquired a HoloLens 2 to assess the relevance of using this technology, but we were unable to reach a clear conclusion about the next steps. In March 2021, our Microsoft account manager followed up and introduced us to the firm AGC. Based on their success with Kruger, we decided to restart the project. Their XR Toolbox solution made all the difference in making remote assistance and holographic procedure solutions accessible. Finally, we can rely on AGC to support us through the transition driven by Microsoft’s decision in the fall of 2024.
Richard Pare
AGC was referred to us in 2020 by Dr. Rudski, Director of the Cardiology Department at the Jewish General Hospital in Montreal. Since then, we have made significant progress. Our implementation efforts in Canada caught the attention of our global IT department. We are now deploying these new approaches across Canada and Mexico. AGC’s platform (software and equipment) has been compared to equivalent solutions on the market and stands among our top selections. Their agility and creativity make them a partner of choice.
