It’s an exciting time for the business communications market. Over the past year, we have witnessed growing enterprise demand for modern cloud solutions; industry consolidation among legacy on-premises players; new workforce behaviors driving a shift toward unified experiences delivered through a single communications platform; and an increasing appetite for integrated cloud applications for enhanced productivity.
As the global leader in cloud communications, we are once again participating at this year’s Enterprise Connect conference, the industry’s premier event focused on enterprise communications and collaborations, where we will be delivering and participating in thought-provoking general sessions and engaging in dynamic panel discussions. We will also showcase the full suite of RingCentral products and services in our booth #1907, and we’re looking forward to hosting the RingCentral VIP party at Enterprise Connect.

Connecting Today’s Enterprise Workforce with Collaborative Communications
Speaker TBD
Visit booth #1907 for executive briefings, theater talks, activities, and prizes.
Theater topics include:
Empowering the Modern Workforce
Speaker: Jim Payne, Sr. Product Marketing Manager
Modern workforces are global, distributed, mobile, and absolutely inundated with different tools and legacy systems that don’t meet their needs on a fundamental level. Users need a solution that fosters effective collaboration with teams, partners, and customers—available on all devices. IT needs a single, integrated, customizable solution that is always available and easy to manage. RingCentral is built to empower both IT and the users they support.
The Collaborative Contact Center
Speaker: John Finch, AVP Product Marketing, Contact Center
Modern contact centers are under increasing pressure and demand to deliver quality customer service and be an essential part of a quality customer experience. Legacy call center systems don’t adequately enable agents and supervisors to effectively and efficiently create a best-in-class customer experience. RingCentral Contact Center is built with omnichannel customer service functionality, with collaboration at the center, truly empowering modern contact centers to deliver on the demands made of them.
A Collaborative Meeting Experience
Speaker: Paul Comaroto, Product Marketing Manager
Virtual meetings can be an effective means of collaborating with distributed teams. Today’s meeting experience doesn’t allow flexibility in communication streams and falls flat when it comes to true team collaboration. RingCentral Meetings offers multiple experiences in a single tool, helping modern employees collaborate more effectively, moving seamlessly from video to web to team chat and collaboration.
Choosing the Best Network for the Enterprise
Speaker: Curtis Peterson, SVP Operations
Business-critical technology must always be available for the users who need it. IT and Networking leadership must ensure that all providers are equipped to provide the availability that they need from the provider. They are also given a variety of options such as Broadband, Direct Connect, MPLS, or SD-WAN for connecting these providers to their locations, and need to make the choice that will meet their needs with effectiveness.
See you there.
Enterprise Connect 2018 will be an exciting chance to network, mingle with peers, and connect with leaders in the industry. We hope to see you there!
