Atos and RingCentral have expanded their strategic partnership with the launch of a co-branded UCaaS solution called Unify Office (UO) by RingCentral. In addition to the companies’ existing system integrator relationship, the partnership will now include Unify Office as the exclusive UCaaS offering for the 40 million user base of the Atos Unify product family. Unify Office is expected to be available from 31 August 2020.

Unify Office, combined with the Atos Unify OpenScape product family and Atos Unify Cloud Contact Center offering, is set to provide Atos’ customers with access to a wide portfolio of UC services.

Under the deal, Atos will also become a customer of Unify Office and start to deploy Unify Office for Atos UCC (former Unify Division) with a view to expand this across its 110,000 employees. Unify, formerly Siemens Enterprise Communications, was acquired by Atos in 2016.

During the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, Atos has accelerated its relationship with RingCentral and engaged with the Atos Unify reseller community to certify more than 90 channel partners with an Early Adopter Program to sell the new Unify Office.

“At RingCentral we’ve always been focused on enabling employees to be productive and collaborate from anywhere, using any device and through the modality of their choice to drive effective business outcomes,” said Vlad Shmunis, the founder, chairman and CEO of RingCentral.

“By bringing Unify Office to the 40 million users of Atos Unify’s family of products, we will provide organisations with the ability to accelerate digital transformation across their entire enterprise”

Atos will add value to RingCentral’s UCaaS offering through the exclusive compatibility with the Atos Unify family of devices and services capabilities. In addition, Atos will provide fully integrated digital workplace offers with some of Atos’ technology and alliance partners. Unify Office will be the exclusive UCaaS solution offered through the Atos Unify Channel Program, allowing its reseller community of more than 1,700 partners worldwide to add their own value.

“This is a critical moment for workplace communications. Organisations are returning to their offices in a new normal and require accelerated digital transformation of their workplace environment,” said Elie Girard, the CEO of Atos. “With our unique heritage in unified communications, we’re excited about combining our knowledge with the market leader in UCaaS to start a new chapter for business communication solutions worldwide.”
