mobility for your business are not just theoretical. Here\u2019s a quick snapshot of three businesses reaping the benefits right now.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a id=\"two\"><\/a>Veritas Logistics embraces SMS to stay connected from anywhere<\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Company type<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Supply chain logistics<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Number of employees<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: 10<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ringcentral.com\/whyringcentral\/casestudies\/veritas-logistics.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Veritas Logistics<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, high-touch and high-level communication is the lifeblood of the business. Every job the company takes on begins with communication.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That&#8217;s why <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ringcentral.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">RingCentral<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is critical to their operations. The company can sync all of its communications across devices, no matter where its delivery drivers or shipments are going. Because it&#8217;s so affordable and easy to implement, Veritas Logistics was able to get everything set up and all employees trained in just a few weeks.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Due to the highly mobile nature of the business, Veritas Logistics team members aren&#8217;t always in the office. This doesn\u2019t impact their operations though. With RingCentral, their office phones can ring to their smartphones and employees can pull up customer information at their fingertips. Even bulk text messages can be set up to communicate with multiple drivers at once.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The company doesn\u2019t just use the bulk SMS feature to save time. The team also uses individual SMS messaging to communicate quickly with customers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"quote-text-break-point\">\n<p class=\"qute-text\">&#8220;RingCentral\u2019s SMS texting feature is fantastic. If I want to send a quick update to one of our drivers, the app lets me send that text from my business number. That\u2019s such an easy, timesaving way to stay connected with our business partners throughout the process\u2014because with everything moving to digital platforms, it\u2019s much easier to communicate via text.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p class=\"quote-text-author\">\u2014Brian Hastings, Supply Chain Leader at Veritas Logistics<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\t<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-49777 aligncenter\" src=\"\/us\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Voicemail-transcription-Dark.png\" alt=\"RingCentral SMS text\" width=\"930\" height=\"700\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a id=\"three\"><\/a>Advantage Plumbing simplifies the calling experience<\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Company type<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Plumbing, HVAC services<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Number of employees<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: 30<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before partnering with RingCentral, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ringcentral.com\/whyringcentral\/casestudies\/advantage-plumbing.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Advantage Plumbing<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> dealt with outdated phone systems and struggled to help its field technicians reach clients quickly and efficiently. The problem was that field technicians were using their personal mobile devices to make client calls. Clients didn\u2019t recognize the number, and many simply didn\u2019t answer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The technicians would then call the office, requesting that the office call the client with the message from the technician.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With RingCentral, field technicians can still use their mobile devices, but when clients get the call, the Advantage Plumbing office number appears. With that simple change, the company has reduced call attempts (needed for technicians to reach out to customers while in the field) by 75%.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"quote-text-break-point\">\n<p class=\"qute-text\">&#8220;One great benefit of RingCentral is that our field technicians can now more reliably reach customers, because even if they\u2019re calling from their own cell phone, it always shows up as an Advantage business number. That\u2019s definitely helping us improve our customer experience.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p class=\"quote-text-author\">\u2014Macy Sorrell-Devereaux, Operations Manager at Advantage Plumbing<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\t<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-50994 aligncenter\" src=\"\/us\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Dial.gif\" alt=\"RingCentral Dial\" width=\"1280\" height=\"800\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a id=\"four\"><\/a>Finkelstein and Partners builds stronger relationships with videoconferencing<\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Company type<\/strong>: Legal services<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Number of employees<\/strong>: 300<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When the time came to retire their 30-year-old case management system, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ringcentral.com\/whyringcentral\/casestudies\/finkelstein-and-partners.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finkelstein and Partners<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> knew it wanted to upgrade to a cloud-based communications platform that could modernize operations.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When the pandemic came, the need for a communications tool that fully supported hybrid and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ringcentral.com\/us\/en\/blog\/hybrid-remote-work\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">remote work<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> accelerated.
