We\u2019re seeing more and more enterprise customers driving demand for cloud communications, which means the opportunity for channel partners is HUGE. Increasingly, I hear customers say that going forward they will be \u201ccloud first\u201d and \u201ccloud only\u201d when it comes to all things IT. According to a recent NoJitter report, more than half of companies surveyed said they currently use or will be using the cloud for their unified communications needs in the next 12 months. Although the opportunity is great, so is the challenge of migrating enterprise customers from their legacy on-premise systems to our flexible cloud solution.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m excited to share that RingCentral has partnered with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carouselindustries.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Carousel Industries<\/a>, a leader in communication and network technologies, professional and managed services, and cloud solutions, to help bring more enterprises into the cloud.
