People work together in different ways. And they use a lot of collaboration tools: IP
telephony for voice calling, web and video conferencing, voice mail, mobility, desktop
sharing, instant messaging, and presence, and more.
Collaboration is the catalyst for business development. Participation of employees could
be significantly improved if they are allowed to have access to required resources and
data. Better participation will surely result in higher efficiency, loyalty, and
satisfaction among employees. No matter among individuals, teams or between enterprises
and clients or partners, collaboration should be carried out in an easy and simple way.
Unified communications (UC) solutions deliver integration of these tools, with seamless
user experiences that help people work together more effectively. Anywhere, on any
device. They bring real-time communication from your phone system and conferencing
solutions together with messaging and chat and integrate with everyday business
applications using APIs.

The global economy requires new ways of doing business. It simply is not feasible to
travel to all locations to meet prospects, customers, fellow executives, and colleagues.
It’s inefficient, too expensive, and hampers productivity. Today’s companies are global
operations, with distributed workforces, worldwide clients, and round-the-clock customer
support. When the workday ends in one part of the world, it’s just beginning on another
continent. Increasingly, knowledge workers are trading cubicles at corporate
headquarters for remote offices, mobile workplaces, and virtual rooms. Travel budgets
continue to shrink, while the need to work collaboratively with global teams continues
to amplify.
These new global realities can be challenging, but they also bring tremendous
opportunities. A visionary IT and business leader can harness the latest trends and
technologies to increase productivity, maximize efficiency, reduce cycle time, extend
business reach, and improve communication.
Web conferencing offers organizations the power to reach people, share information,
collaborate, and stay connected with global, virtual teams—anytime, anywhere. The
introduction of web conferencing has forever transformed the way organizations do
business. Instead of costly and time-consuming travel, it’s now possible to reach
colleagues, customers, and partners instantly over the web. Organizations can bring
together people from across the hall, or across the globe, to attend training sessions,
present at product reviews, or brainstorm new ideas. Organizations can provide their
customers with round-the-clock support from highly qualified experts who are now only a
click away. And perhaps most importantly, organizations can help ensure that company
continues to operate even when weather, traffic, or natural or man-made disasters
prevent them or their employees from getting safely to work.
Contact centers expand on calling functionality to include other ways a customer can
contact an organization–or an organization can reach customers–like online chat, social
media, and SMS texting. Using contact center software, organizations can further
personalize interactions to go beyond simple inbound and outbound calls to help truly
transform customer experiences.
Contact center’s goal is to improve the customer experience. Helping spearhead this
initiative are digital innovation and changes in customer behavior. Technology has
expanded to include new contact channels, and customers are eager to do business with
companies that provide high customer engagement.
In an industry that used to rely on hardwired phones and email as recently as 10 years
ago, modern contact center solutions now enable a truly omnichannel approach. The
always-on nature of the omnichannel contact center includes avenues like SMS text,
social media, online chat, and yes, those trusty phone calls.
There are multiple benefits of contact center technology. It’s positively affecting the
customer experience and customer loyalty. Customers seek to interact with companies
when, where, and how they want and not be limited by an organization’s office hours.
As the way customers and companies interact continues to evolve, the contact center
industry is also adapting. Behavioral trends and technology that are shaping the future
of contact center include:
- Real-time, on-demand service
- Self-service contact center
- Personalized attention and responses
- Chatbots
- Social media
- Mobile and SMS texting
- Video conferencing
- Analytics
Employees, customers, and suppliers have big expectations when it comes to calling and
collaboration experiences. More enterprises are working and sharing globally, and the
number of remote workers continues to increase. Employees and customers have come to
expect flexibility in anytime, anywhere communication. At the same time, business
success hinges on enabling quality collaboration.
Collaboration solutions bring people together anywhere — on any device — with a single
architecture for clear delivery of voice, video, and data. Whether calling, creating,
viewing, messaging, sharing, conferencing, or using voice or presence capabilities,
organizations need to be able to do it from a variety of devices. From desk phone or
laptop to room monitor or mobile device, the experience should be seamless.
There’s no doubt that calling and collaboration solutions need to evolve to meet the
needs of today enterprises. Cloud collocation solutions provides the most flexible and
agile options to serve calling and collaboration needs.
