Avaya and Icosnet (icosnet.com) have announced a strategic partnership to jointly provide Unified Communications (UC) technologies from a cloud platform in Algeria. With growing demand for advanced connectivity and communications solutions, the new cloud-based offering will bring innovative technology consumption models to help drive digital transformation within organisations in the public and private sectors in this emerging market.
Based on Avaya Aura™ and Avaya Equinox™, the UC cloud-based service offered by Icosnet provide streamlined, mobile-first communications that are less complex than many legacy systems. The service will enable Algerian organisations to leapfrog traditional enterprise communications models and add advanced capabilities in a hybrid or pure cloud model. For example, organisations can communications-enable the business applications and browsers that are used most often within the organization, making it easier and faster for employees to communicate and collaborate with customers, partners and other colleagues.
