Flex UCaaS Phone System
Empower Your Team with All-in-One Communications
What is UCaaS?
UCaaS is an acronym for unified communications as a service. It combines Internet-based phone and messaging into a full-featured communications platform. Companies adopt UCaaS to provide staff with collaboration tools to work anywhere – in the office, at home or on the go. UCaaS solutions function across a user’s computer, desk phone, and smartphone.
Unified communications integrate communications technology together, including phone, chat, messaging and video conferencing – rather than having each technology be a separate application, businesses can get the benefits of each system in an all-in-one platform.
No Boxes. No Bundles.
No Excuses.
FlexIP Delivers Managed Communications Customized for Your Business and Optimized for Performance.
Why Switch to UCaaS?
Companies switch from on-premises phone systems (PBXs) to cloud-based phone systems and UCaaS to create a genuinely future-proof business with a reliable communications solution to ensure business continuity.
Since UCaaS is in the cloud, no natural disaster, power outage, mandatory lockdown or geographically disparate employees will be a problem in keeping your daily company operations up and running.
Organizations typically move their IT and communications to cloud systems like a hosted VoIP phone system and UCaaS for these key reasons:
Avoiding Capital Expenditures
on systems and equipment and converting them to operating expenses – usually in a predictable monthly or annual subscription.
Scaling On-demand
with the growth of your business or seasonal spikes (or decreases) in usage.
Seamlessly Integrating Mobile and Remote Workers
by enabling anywhere access to applications from Internet-enabled devices.
Creating Competitive Advantage
by unifying communications and making apps always accessible so you can collaborate with internal teams easier and respond to customers more quickly.
Future-proofing Vital Infrastructure
with automatic updates and upgrades that are part of your subscription.
Offloading Management
of communications and IT hardware and software, so you can focus on your business.
Decentralizing Resources
from a personnel perspective (i.e., you can hire talent working from anywhere) and an asset perspective since your company doesn’t physically house or maintain these assets, so there is little risk and no maintenance.
