The concept of Unified Communications is to provide an organisation with one platform in which all communication needs can be met. This “collaborative communications environment” can include instant messaging, presence, telephony, audio and video conferencing, and enables simple & efficient communications across your organisation, making your business more agile and profitable. It is critical that your team has effective ways of communicating, enabled by professional, resilient & secure technology.
(*UCaaS = Unified Communications as a Service)
