Editor’s Bottom Line of Broadview
Broadview Networks offer their own take on a unique solution to solve the age old problem of communications. With a massive $320 million gathered in total venture capital funding since their founding way back in 1996, it’s no surprise that Broadview Networks is still a prominent force in the industry. It is also no surprise to see the industry, and individual providers, to shift from legacy to cloud based operations – something that Broadview was quick to do back at the beginning of the industry, during the original development days in 2005. Broadview has also since grown their capabilities, originally focusing on the small to mid-size business, the provider is now capable of outfitting entire Enterprise companies with the right solution.
But, over the years Broadview has expanded beyond just VoIP and telephony communication capabilities. The provider quickly recognized the need to branch their solutions into not only an entire Unified Communications platform, but even an overall cloud network platform, and even a contact center solution. Broadview’s UC solution is not reliant on phones, servers power or any independent devices to operate – the entire solution is 100% in the cloud, and according to Broadview, they offer the only 100% cloud-based unified communications solution. Broadview is also capable of providing users with a robust, cloud based meeting platform to reduce the hassle of online video conferencing, for up to 100 participants.
On top of it all, highlighting Broadview’s understanding for Enterprise needs, the provider understand the upmost importance of security, and aims to ensure the highest level of robust encryption and security practices to protect not own their own network, but your business’s network and data as well. And speaking of Data, thanks to the unique Broadview cloud network, the provider can help your business manage data and intelligence with their solutions as well. Broadview’s platform utilizes a “unique technology platform, and SilNET, instead of SIP or open source technologies” to help ensure the best security, compatibility and reliability.
