NEC has made its UCaaS solution UNIVERGE BLUE CONNECT available to resellers and customers worldwide.
The solution offers fully integrated conferencing, collaboration, screen sharing, and video conferencing capabilities available from desktop or mobile devices.
Initially launched in the US in April 2020, UNIVERGE BLUE is now available to partners in the UK, certain territories in EMEA, Australia, and elsewhere. NEC stated that feedback from its US ecosystem indicated that “thousands” of resellers and businesses benefitted from the flexible solution that supports the shift to a distributed workforce.
The comms provider is also making its CCaaS solution UNIVERGE BLUE ENGAGE available globally. The solutions can cater to businesses of all sizes, from SMBs to enterprises.
UK & Ireland Sales Director, Andrew Cooper, stated:
“As arguably one of the broadest cloud platforms available, UNIVERGE BLUE enables telecoms, collaboration, backup, security, webinars, file sharing, and more within a single solution. If purchased from different vendors, all these have their own costs along with the resources to maintain and integrate them. If these are consolidated and streamlined, the cost of ownership is lowered considerably.
“Businesses can also benefit from monthly billing – users only pay for what they use and user licenses can be altered month by month.
“On-boarding partners should be empowering, not burdening. Our partner programme philosophy is ‘We work for you' with partners getting to maintain control of customer ownership.”
UNIVERGE BLUE CONNECT and ENGAGE are now available to NEC’s UK channel partner community and customers. This marks the third phase of a global rollout, with remaining international partners expected to be able to avail of the solutions by the end of this year.
