RingCentral, Inc. (NYSE:RNG), a leading provider of cloud business
communications solutions, and TELUS, Canada’s fastest-growing national
telecommunications company, today announced that they have joined forces
to launch TELUS Business Connect™ in the Canadian market.
Today’s business necessities are changing. The rapid adoption of
smartphones and the need to support distributed workforces make
traditional on-premise phone systems obsolete. TELUS Business Connect
will now provide a single solution for businesses, which includes a full
bundle of communications capabilities; offering complete voice, fax, and
audio and video conferencing – all accessible from desktop devices and
apps available for mobile phones. Now businesses can stay connected to
their customers, in the office or on the go – to ensure they never miss
a call.
“The way we work is changing, and traditional enterprise phone systems
can be complicated, costly and ineffective for small businesses,” said
Jim Senko, senior vice-president of small business and emerging markets
at TELUS. “We are pleased to be working with RingCentral on TELUS
Business Connect to provide an affordable, fully-featured suite of
communications tools; so our customers can spend less time worrying
about their phone system and more time concentrating on growing their
business.”
TELUS Business Connect allows customers to enjoy enterprise-grade
functionality that is flexible and easy to deploy. As a cloud-based
solution, a customer can benefit from a single phone number that works
across all devices. Customers will receive unlimited calling across
Canada and the U.S. using their TELUS Business Connect phone number, and
have advanced calling features, including auto attendant to greet
callers and toll-free business phone numbers.
“RingCentral is proud to team up with TELUS to bring a unique
cloud-based solution combined with unparalleled functionality and ease
of use to the Canadian market,” said Marty Piombo, vice president of
strategic partnerships at RingCentral. “This is further validation of
the RingCentral solution and our ability to work with major carriers to
address the rapidly evolving needs of business customers.”
