The benefits of cloud solutions are leading to a transition to the cloud in a wide variety of applications, including software designed to improve the customer experience, networking solutions that apply software-defined wide area networking (SD-WAN), and security tools that monitor the broad plane of risk that cloud technology introduces. In all areas of technology, enterprise[…]

For organizations considering an investment in cloud communications, there are generally a couple of factors driving that decision. Cloud solutions often provide sizable cost savings, with the ability to scale up or down in a subscription-based pay structure, in addition to a reduction in hardware and maintenance costs. The other major consideration is disruption. If your enter[…]

The Internet of Things (IoT) is the variety of devices equipped with sensors to collect and distribute data related to business processes. The fleet of IoT devices has exploded in recent years, with enterprises discovering new ways to reduce costs and improve efficiency as well as the end user experience with an infusion of data. As the IoT continues to grow, there are a number[…]
