Companies worldwide are seeking to move their corporate communications to the Cloud by adopting UC applications that completely fit their business needs. Choosing these solutions is not an easy and immediate decision but one aspect is clear: any entity can benefit from selecting UC solutions as a Service (UCaaS). Let’s go deeper into the main advantages of this increasingly required pay-per-use licensing approach.

 

  • Subscription-based services in the Cloud

Firstly, by paying a monthly fee, enterprises easily activate the licenses of the UC solutions they need to efficiently manage business communication. This means employees have direct simple access to the solutions from any location in the Cloud with their credentials and the company pays just for what they use.

Furthermore, companies are allowed to personalize their cloud-based UC system with their preferred applications. All they need, such as voice and video applications and messaging solutions, are included in a system provided and handled by Service Providers and System Integrators. In other words, no additional aspects are required to get advanced UC features.

 

  • Hand-off maintenance

The “as a Service approach” offloads maintenance, upgradings, security, and implementation to the provider of these solutions who oversees all these system aspects. Companies no longer have to worry about having a dedicated team that only deals with them. Thanks to UCaaS, the solutions are ready to use as well as companies only activate a license to immediately use them.

Consequently, this model makes UC solutions more accessible for enterprises because it is the easier, quicker, and simpler approach they can choose to shift their communications to the Cloud. In brief, it is a time-saving approach: solutions are provided as turnkey up-to-date UC applications on a single platform. Employees are empowered to easily use them in their day-to-day activities. 

 

  • Cost-saving, scalability, and efficiency

Since companies pay just for what they use, UCaaS is an ideal adoption model for unpredictable markets and growing businesses. By relying on it, entities are allowed to rapidly increase or decrease the number of licenses they need as well as add or remove applications in the subscription. Thus service inefficiencies are avoided and entities can take the most from the UC solutions they have activated. 

Furthermore, it is important to consider that with this method no hardware costs are required as in the on-prem infrastructure. With a perpetual license and a high initial investment, on-premises systems do not allow such a scalable and efficient scenario, typical of the UCaaS model.
