Cisco announced it is now hosting a record eight billion calls monthly across its cloud calling platforms, the most of any cloud calling provider.
To meet enterprises growing global needs, Cisco has extended its domestic calling coverage to include the United Kingdom, with more than 65 countries covered with its Cisco Calling Plans and Cloud Connected PSTN services – the most in the industry. Enterprises such as T-Mobile, Office Depot, Cigna Health, and CDK Global are relying on Webex Calling to power their businesses.
Webex Calling is part of the Webex Suite – the industry’s first suite for hybrid work that provides cloud calling, messaging, meetings, polling, events and socio in a unified, secure offering. Reliability of calling systems is essential, as they are embedded in businesses’ everyday workflows. With a hospital, for example, if a call is delayed by even a minute, it can be the difference between life and death when a patient arrives in critical condition.
“With the move to hybrid work and increasing pressure to delight customers, there’s never been a greater need to unify communications across the entire workforce,” said Jeetu Patel, executive vice president and general manager, Cisco Security and Collaboration. “As enterprises look to migrate calling solutions to the cloud, Webex Calling offers the leading end-to-end, secure calling experience that makes unified communications a reality.”
Webex Calling innovations benefit customers with:
- Broader global footprint – Cisco Calling Plans are available to United Kingdom business customers, and cloud connected PSTN supports domestic calling in more than 65 countries
- Increased flexibility – Customers can customize PSTN solutions, mixing and matching options to best meet location and operational requirements
- Speed enhancements and ease of use – Integration of cloud connected PSTN in Control Hub enables customers to automate ordering and provision of new numbers quickly and easily. As a result, organizations can achieve in minutes what previously took days. This is made possible in partnership with Cisco integrated service provider IntelePeer via Webex Control Hub
