Unify’s OpenScape Cloud Launch
Few days ago, at the global partner conference in Monaco, Unify launched OpenScape Cloud in its portfolio combining the Top Two Unify Solutions, OpenScape Voice and Circuit into a single hosted service.
Previously, Circuit was available as a service and OpenScape as a licensed product. To create OpenScape Cloud, Unify has moved into Unified Communications as a Service (UCaaS). UCaas is a delivery model in which a variety of communication and collaboration applications and services are outsourced to a third-party provider and delivered over an IP network, in both public or private cloud.
At the moment, OpenScape Cloud is available in the US, UK, France and Germany and Unify are aiming to expand to many other countries by the end of this year.
What makes OpenScape Cloud different from the flow is:
- Channel friendly
- Aimed directly at service providers
- Offers a migration path for organizations with premises-based UC solution
Luiz Domingos, Head of Product House for Unify said:” The move to cloud is a major market trend, and our customers and partners are looking for more options and stronger offerings than are available today. Unify’s OpenScape Cloud provides superior functionality and the flexibility for public or private cloud deployments, so Unify and our partners can offer customers the deployment choices and flexibility to migrate at their pace.”
If your communications are not in the cloud yet, it’s time to move forward!
