Skype for Business

Certification validates Nectar’s commitment to Skype for Business deployment success

Skype for Business has matured just as corporate organizational complexity has jumped off the charts. The need to be connected in the office, from the home, on the road, even from the seat of an airplane or train is more than just a hallmark of this digital age. The ability to reliably and securely collaborate across distance, device, and location is critical to effectively managing the modern multinational enterprise.

We at UCStrategies have long advocated the importance of executive sponsorship for UC deployments. However, it is often a challenge to get the executive team interested in something that is often seen as a tool and is not easily linked to business results. While most executives agree that providing their employees with great tools to collaborate and work better is critical, making that a focus of the organization is often challenging.

You know how important digital transformation is - but do you know how to start the journey and get your desired results? To remain competitive, your enterprise is going to have to embrace technology that will deliver better and more relevant customer experiences, enable more productive employee outcomes, and help to realize new and more sophisticated business models.
