NEC announces a "global strategic partnership" with Intermedia, a provider of cloud-based Unified Communications as a Service (UCaaS) and Contact Centre as a Service (CCaS) solutions.
Together the two companies launch NEC Univerge Blue Connect, an integrated and born-in-the-cloud UCaaS solution, and Univerge Blue Engage, a CCaS solution for business of all sizes. Both solutions are built on proprietary Intermedia technology, and offer support through the NEC partner ecosystem.
