Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise Launches OmniPCX Enterprise Purple, the Communications Platform Designed for the Digital Age

Paris, France–(Newsfile Corp. – November 9, 2021) – Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise (FP: CGE), a leading provider of communications, cloud and networking solutions tailored to customers’ industries, has announced the launch of Alcatel-Lucent OmniPCX Enterprise Purple, the communications platform designed for the digital age.

OmniPCX Enterprise Purple offers a new communication experience enabling organisations of any size to shape the future of work and the digital workplace their employees and customers are seeking. With SIP at its core, OmniPCX Enterprise Purple delivers all the enterprise-grade communication features with the highest level of security.

Its openness allows the integration of real-time communications into business processes and applications, reduces latency with intelligent objects, improves business efficiency, and increases customer satisfaction. OmniPCX Enterprise Purple is designed to connect to the cloud, thus enabling organisations to embrace new models such as hybrid cloud while leveraging their past investments.

OmniPCX Enterprise Purple comes with a new range of professional desk phones for the digital workplace including home and remote working. Moreover, it enables voice communications with cloud-based collaboration platforms such as Rainbow by Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise.

For customer service teams and contact centre businesses, OmniPCX Enterprise Purple enables a state-of-the-art omnichannel experience based on the upcoming hybrid cloud CCaaS solution that will help companies better connect with their customers.

Nicolas Brunel, EVP, Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise Communication Business Division, said,“OmniPCX Enterprise Purple is delivering on what is essential for enterprises and public organisations to fully embrace the digital age. By providing an open platform designed for the new workplace and integration of real-time communications into their core business processes, they can fully leverage the power of cloud.”

The launch enhances Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise’s communications solutions portfolio and is part of its Digital Age Communications (DAC) strategy which centres on three pillars:

  • The digital workplace: Enabling employees to work from anywhere (at the office, at home, or remotely), with efficient communications, collaboration, and customer service, cloud-based solutions available at any time, from any device.
  • Communications as the catalyst for enterprise agility: Connecting everything (people, applications, and objects) to enrich traditional business interactions, accelerate decision-making, automate business processes, and proactively detect potential incidents before they occur.
  • Flexible cloud-model solutions and architecture: From enterprise premises to a full-cloud solution (private, public, or hybrid), organisations can decide on the best approach to support their transformation in terms of budget, timeframe, and objectives.

OmniPCX Enterprise Purple is available from October 2021, through Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise’s worldwide network of resellers.

Welcome

The vision behind everything in Futurum’s Custom Research practice is this: research should show you what is happening, what comes next, and what to do about it. It should be personal to each audience, easy for people to grasp, and structured so LLMs can reason over it accurately. And it should be fast and turnkey; you want answers now, not another project to carry for quarters.

Whether you are defining business, channel, or go-to-market strategy; evaluating vendors or justifying ROI; or commissioning research to fill an emerging market need, we have your back, with a program that answers your questions with the objectivity and credibility to drive real decisions.

To do it, we bring unmatched data to bear: Futurum research, surveys, and market projections; validated market feeds; ETR’s 15 years of insight from 10,000 technology decision-makers; G2’s buyer and user data; and what our analysts hear every day. Add leading primary collection, from AI-moderated voice interviews to surveys and analyst-led interviews, all turnkey, and every project comes out credible, nuanced, and actionable.

And we don’t just drop the results in your lap. For internal work, we provide analyst-led sessions, interactive dashboards, and a range of formats. For market-facing work, Futurum delivers turnkey activation and amplification that actually gets seen, by people and by LLMs, through our media and share of voice. This is research that moves decisions and markets.

We will meet you wherever you are, from a fast-turn brief to a multi-year program, and shape the work to your goals, timeline, and budget. The right program for your moment.

If any of this is useful, I would love to talk.
