One of the major barriers cited to the growth of WebRTC has been the lack of true mobile integration into WebRTC. This has repeatedly been raised as the major potential barrier to adoption. In fact, the forecasts of a billion WebRTC devices by the end of 2013 include a large number of mobile devices including smartphones and tablets. While Ericsson showed their "Bowser" implementation, so far WebRTC has been limited to PCs and the Chrome and Firefox browsers.
Among the various facets of customer services, there is one that has always been most difficult for all types of businesses, and that has to do with managing the timely payments for goods and services. While most customer services involve satisfying various consumer needs, collecting payments - especially those that are in arrears - must also be done in an effective way that does not violate any of the regulations or state and federal laws that currently exist.

As many of you who follow UCStrategies know, I have become a strong proponent of WebRTC and the transformation that it portends. While some may say it is just an evolution, the fact of moving communications to a web model with 20 million communications hosts is a major change. Last week at the WebRTC Conference and Expo in Atlanta, over two and a half days and 33 demos, the state of the art in WebRTC was demonstrated, discussed, and examined. The excitement the technology is generating was evident throughout the hall and sessions, but became particularly clear in a number of the demos.

In this Industry Buzz podcast, the UCStrategies Experts discuss the opportunities that WebRTC presents the channel, specifically resellers, distrib
With Tsahi Levent-Levi joining the UCStrategies Experts, we are truly embracing WebRTC going forward. And why not? It sure appears the WebRTC "peers" are about to explode.
At this week's Google developer conference, Justin Uberti, one of the Google WebRTC development leaders, said that he believes there will be one billion WebRTC-enabled devices (think peers) by the end of 2013. While he is biased, there is significant reason to believe that he is probably right.
Remember me? That nagging guy who likes to tell UC vendors that they are missing it with WebRTC only to hear that WebRTC doesn't solve so many problems UC vendors face?
Well, I am back. And I want to offer a different prism through which to look at WebRTC. Up until now, the only prism UC vendors used is in the area of accessing their existing architecture and solution. I want to offer two new prisms for you. If you start using them in parallel with your current worldview - you will only benefit.
As many of you who follow UCStrategies know, since I became a UC Expert a little over a year ago I have been extolling the potential impact of WebRTC on our industry. And as you have heard, a number of the other UC Experts agree that this technology could be the next major transformation in communications.
