For many companies that want to switch to IP but are wary of the costs of time, people and assets, on-demand access to business critical applications are an ideal solution.  With this technology, companies have the ability to reduce their total cost of ownership, switch to an operational expense model, free up valuable IT human capital as well as converge data and voice networks.  All of which are now available through the strategic alliance of Avaya and Sprint.

 

Avaya and Sprint provide North America businesses with a new way to purchase IP functionality that can lower costs, reduce risk and allow a business to choose its own IP migration path.  The new hosted solutions, housed and fully managed in a Sprint data center, are delivered to subscribing customers in a per-seat, per-month model.  A customer can easily scale the number of users up or down as dictated by growth or seasonality, allowing them to only pay for the functionality they use.  The hosted model also provides an attractive financial model.  By preserving capital for other investments, a business can protect cash flow, virtually eliminate stranded capital and improve asset utilization metrics.

 

The joint solutions combine the world-class network, services and customer care of Sprint with the market-leading intelligent communication applications from Avaya.  Together, Sprint and Avaya are able to offer customers in all industries the leading IP Telephony, Contact Center, Wireless and Messaging solutions.
