In recent years, people are used to activating as a Service licenses to easily get Cloud-based software with a ready-to-use web interface. This licensing method has become very popular for its no required specific technical expertise: it allows to quickly license plug-n play services on a time-bound subscription basis.
In the UC market, this approach allows companies to cut costs by activating only the number of needed licenses and adding/removing UC applications as required. With a monthly or yearly subscription fee, companies can take advantage of a scalable and modular UC solution, without high initial capital and stressful thought: maintenance, updates, and safety aspects are off-loaded to the provider.
This method seems to be very attractive but sometimes enterprises may feel limited with the standard proposed solutions because they cannot 100% meet any peculiar requirements. That’s why some IT Managers prefer to adopt a customizable solution, but is it possible to get a more flexible and easy-to-use UC software that meets specific needs by activating an aaS license?
Mida has its answer…
Having understood the huge potential of the aaS licensing model and the relevance of meeting different companies’ requirements, Mida has decided to propose their UC solutions for Microsoft Teams and Zoom environments a step ahead.
Mida’s products – including a contact center, attendant console, and compliance recorder – are now available with off-the-shelf and dedicated instances to let companies implement a new corporate telephony system. In accordance with their business requirements, they can decide where to host the applications:
- In Mida’s Cloud – Mida handles the infrastructure in its Azure and gives customers only access to the turnkey UC services. The activable UC solutions are ready-to-use and intuitive to efficiently handle and store business communications without stressful technical expertise. This is a good option for small companies that haven’t an IT staff or prefer to offload the deployment and the configuration process.
- In the companies’ Cloud – Mida sends customers a step-by-step guide that covers the initial part of the components’ deployment (e.g. Virtual Machines, SBC, licensing). The process depends on which component(s) the customer wants to license and which architecture has been chosen. Three architectures were available: they are specifically designed to combine the simplicity of aaS model with the flexibility of customizable solutions (contact us to get more information about the main differences). After the initial deployment, Mida takes care of the configuration of the component(s) the customer wants to enable.
In both cases, companies can quickly activate licenses and smoothly use the products. The philosophy behind these two methods is to help enterprises move their business communications to the Cloud with a simple and turnkey UC solution and a periodic payment of use.
