We’re very excited today to announce the launch of our new Unified Communications as a Service (UCaaS) platform. The new service is the latest development from our long term partnership with NEC and we think it is going to be a powerful new communications platform for our partners and customers.

 UCaaS from Node4 is a fully managed and hosted cloud-based communications platform that utilises NEC’s award winning UNIVERGE 3C to combine feature rich and user centric IP telephony with a powerful collaboration tool.

Crucially, UCaaS will be available to customers as an entirely OPEX service model. This new pricing model is a first for NEC UNIVERGE 3C, which will provide customers and resellers far greater flexibility over their UC deployments basis – enabling organisations to scale up or down seamlessly in line with their precise business needs.

The new platform fits perfectly into our portfolio of infrastructure and tools that can be tailored to the exact requirements of every company we work with. We firmly believe that no two companies are alike and IT systems need to reflect this with maximum flexibility built into solutions. The new UCaaS platform is a great example of how this flexibility can be achieved and the benefits it can bring to customers.

Node4 and NEC will be showcasing the new service at this year’s Connected Business Expo, 4-5 March, London Olympia. We will be offering live demos, real life customer experiences and a more detailed look at the UCaaS pricing structure on stand F605.
