Complaint Review: WSI - Mississauga Ontario

I spoke with a telemarketer with a heavy accent who talked in circles for about five minutes before I finally cut him off and said that I had no idea what he was talking about and hung up. Could anybody explain this firm's business model in plain English? Ripoff Report claims that this firm is on the up and up, but how can a firm that can't even explain it's own business model be legit?

Technology experts.that's a joke. They don't even understand the difference between an Intranet and an Extranet. This is some of the propaganda they are pushing in their supposed "Amazing Secrets" book, and you can see they clearly don't have the technology to offer true Intranet solutions, so they are trying to pass off their Extranets as Intranets. This is a classic example of the spin they put on things to basically push their second rate products.

"Any example of a password-protected area on an Internet site is an example of an Intranet. These can be used to create communities within
companies and facilitate internal communication such as setting up user-administered human resource departments. They can also be used
to create communities of suppliers, business partners, and customers outside the company.

Some examples include the CBC Newsworld
Internet site, and chat groups for stock investors and other communities
of interest.

The speed of the uptake of email installations from large to small organizations supports the fact that email delivers business benefits and
d e l i ve rs them fast. But the real benefits are gained when the communication is centralized and a database of the core information is
developed by way of an Intranet.

Centralized corporate communication increases organizational learning and prevents the duplication of resources. Across a company with
varying geographic boundaries, centralized communication can significantly increase the adaptability, level of innovation, and ability of
an organization to provide profitable solutions and meet increasing customer demands. The level and degree of collaboration that occurs is
increased, especially over geographically dispersed locations.

Distribution of internal newsletters, training manuals, employe e handbooks and other policy materials are some of the larger
components of corporate administrative expense. What if these could be placed on an Intranet so that any employee could access this
information at their convenience? Imagine the savings in paper, printing, distribution, and update costs-not to mention the convenience of knowing where to find all this information when the need arises.

Organizations that need to develop knowledge bases for company-wide use would benefit significantly from an Intranet. Have you noticed how most of the information stored in your own office is rarely used? If this is the case with most people in the company, then you can imagine how much information is sitting on company shelves. One can easily imagine how useful this information would be if it was available at everyone's fingertips-through an Intranet!

Hi, I was searching for a franchising opportunity and came across WSI thru a 3rd party website. I filled in a request for more information and the next thing I new I was involved in a series of "interviews"(High pressure sales calls) As a former telemarketer for a leading credit card company I recognised all the hard sell techniques and closing statments. Every time I made a positive statment the nice lady tried to close the deal. I was then told that a director of the company would call me to give some more detailed info as everytime I asked how much individual consultants were making the subject was changed. The next day I was called by a "DIRECTOR" and we began the same process but when I stated that I wasn't going to be investing for a period of up to 6 months the conversation went cold. I was informed that it only takes 3 weeks to evaluate the franchise agreement and that a 25% deposit was needed at this stage with the balance due soon after. Hardly the perfect way to begin a business relationship I thought! The conversation ended very abubtly and my 40 minute "interview" was cut to 5 min with 2words "NO MONEY"
I think that should tell you all you need to know. Be very carefull with these people.

I used to work for the company and frankly I think that they are a bunch of overworked overzealous hypocrites. They fired me because I was not willing to work more than 35 hours a week and I did not subscribe to their cult like positive attitude like they think they are somehow better than other people.

As far as I am concerned - It does not matter that they have been rated #1 - they are too indoctrinated like they are going to be the next Microsoft. Like that is a great thing to want to be Microsoft is just a Capitalist Bully that works there employees to death and they are out to crush every one of their competitors to me it's a pretty shallow goal to want to be like them.

I was a good person before this company destroyed me since they fired me 6 months ago for no good reason, my wife has left me and I will tell the world what a piece of s**t company this is until the day I die.

Here is my gift of retaliation I am posting a copy of their Top Secret Project they have been working on developing as a joint project with the Hong Kong Polytechnic Institute
