Atos and RingCentral have announced the expansion of their strategic partnership with the launch of a co-branded UCaaS solution called Unify Office (UO) by RingCentral.
In addition to the system integrator relationship announced previously, the expanded partnership will now include UO as the exclusive UCaaS offering for the 40 million user installed base of the Atos Unify product family. UO is expected to be available starting August 31, 2020.
This will allow Atos to maximize the global market opportunity in digital transformation by adding a strong cloud communications solution to its portfolio. UO, combined with the Atos Unify OpenScape product family and market leading Atos Unify Cloud Contact Center offering, gives Atos customers unique access to leading solutions across all the major UC categories.
Atos will also become a customer of UO and start to deploy the solution for Atos UCC (former Unify Division) with a view to expand this across the 110,000 employees. Unify, formerly Siemens Enterprise Communications, was acquired by Atos in 2016.
During the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, Atos accelerated its relationship with RingCentral and engaged within the strong Atos Unify reseller landscape to certify more than 90 channel partners with an Early Adopter Program to sell the new UO product.
