Orange Business Services claims cloud Unified Communications launch first

摘要

Orange Business Services has launched what it claims is the market's first global Unified Communications as a Service (UCaaS) offering. The solution enables enterprises to deploy video conferencing, unified messaging, IM and telephony together in an app onto all mobile and desktop devices, via a web portal hosted in the cloud. Building on its existing Cisco-powered Business Together UC offering, Orange Business Services is expanding its service to become a multi-tenanted Mobile Device Management (MDM) platform that supports every smartphone OS apart from BlackBerry 10 and which integrates current UC and VPN technologies such as Cisco WebEx, Cisco jabber, IBM's Sametime and Juniper Pulse.
