Ytel Launches Ytel UCaaS, a cloud phone system; delivering the first truly unified communications experience across UCaaS, CCaaS, and CPaaS

The company now delivers the first truly unified communications experience across UCaaS, CCaaS, and CPaaS.

LAKE FOREST, CALIF. (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 16, 2021

Ytel, a leading cloud communications platform provider, today announced the launch of the first-ever Communications Triangle, including a business phone system with video collaboration (UCaaS) and advanced contact center software (CCaaS), built on top of developer APIs (CPaaS). The communication triangle utilizes a purpose-built carrier network delivering HD quality and multiple modes of communication, including voice, SMS, and more.

With this multi-channel workforce communication software, users only need access to the internet, and no special equipment is required. With the addition of UCaaS to Ytel’s CPaaS and CCaaS offerings, businesses can provide a more seamless customer experience. Actions like transferring a conversation from the contact center to an employee’s handset are simplified for Ytel’s customers.

The decision to add UCaaS was driven by research into phone systems Ytel could suggest to their customers.

“We were shocked to find out that only 20% of businesses had migrated to cloud-based phone systems. For years, our existing customers, particularly those using our cloud contact center software, have been encouraging us to provide a phone system that their entire workforce could use – not just their contact center agents,” said Brian Keep, COO of Ytel. “They weren’t getting the multi-channel tools or HD call quality from their phone system that they had come to expect with Ytel’s cloud contact center. It was with these customers in mind that we committed to adding Ytel UCaaS into our product offering.”

Many of Ytel’s customers were also stuck with on-premise phone systems that were single-channel, didn’t accommodate a growing remote and mobile workforce, and had difficulty handling simple requests like receiving a transferred call from the cloud contact center. Ytel decided to offer a solution in-house that meets the increasing demand industry-wide for a unified platform to support those needs.

“Ytel UCaaS is far more than a phone system because in addition to allowing calls on a hard phone, browser, and mobile device, it also allows for texting, live chat, and video conferencing – all from a single platform,” continued Keep.

Per Ytel standards, all product offerings are accessible in a unified interface, reducing complexity for mid-size and enterprise companies that often require three to five different vendors to accomplish the same task Ytel provides out of the box. Using the full product suite together makes for a more user-friendly experience for customers and employees.

Businesses using UCaaS solutions become more sophisticated and naturally gain the need for contact center and communication API offerings. Ytel’s all-in-one Communications Triangle now meets those requirements. Learn more about our UCaaS solution.

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.
