Announcing Your UC Awards 2018 Shortlist

We searched through the most incredible UC solutions in the industry to bring you our shortlists for 7 categories.

UC Awards 2018 shortlist

Excitement is in the air here at UC Today as the day of the big UC Awards winners announcement edges closer.

As you know, we introduced the UC Today Awards for the first time this year, to acknowledge and celebrate some of the companies delivering the highest degree of innovation and development within this extraordinary industry.

We've seen an incredible response from our amazing readers, which means that we've had a tough time sorting through applications to find the ones that we feel deserve an extra-special mention this year. Every single application came packed with information about the innovative brands that make up today's UC landscape.

The Shortlist for Each UC Today Awards Category

While every contestant is a winner in our eyes, we eventually needed to narrow down our choices. Believe us when we say it wasn't an easy process. We couldn't possibly have predicted the amazing response we got to our debut award event, and we want to thank you for your fantastic support. We received applications from all around the globe, and each had its own star points to mention.

Before we announce the shortlist, we'd like to tip our hats to the judges that assisted us with this mammoth task. Matthew Townend from the Cavell Group, Blair Pleasant from COMMfusion, Tim Banting from GlobalData, and Dave Michels from TalkingPointz were all fundamental in helping us make our decisions.

So, without further ado, here are your shortlists!
