Evolve IP and Cisco Deepen Partnership to Deliver Evolve Anywhere with Webex KING OF PRUSSIA, Pa. — February 17, 2022 — Evolve IP®, a leading international service provider of Work Anywhere™ solutions, today announced that it has partnered with Webex, a leading provider of cloud-based collaboration solutions, to develop Evolve IP’s new unified communications solution, Evolve Anywhere with Webex. Powered by Cisco, the fully integrated UCaaS solution brings together enterprise-grade calling and cutting-edge features provided by Evolve IP Global Voice with Webex’s advanced messaging and meetings capabilities, all within a single app.   Evolve Anywhere with Webex was developed to help customers successfully manage the unique business requirements of today’s ‘new normal’. During the sudden shift to remote work in response to the pandemic, businesses quickly discovered that the meetings and collaboration solutions offered with traditional UCaaS solutions could not adequately support their remote teams. Companies, therefore, started looking for solutions that supported both at home collaboration and more traditional in-office communication needs in a single solution centered around the world-class solutions they already used – like Webex.     “The average business is using 3.5 different collaboration solutions and most expect users to continue to work away from the office the majority of the time,” said Christian Teeft, Chief Technology Officer and EVP of Global Engineering and Software Development at Evolve IP. “By embracing Webex as the center of the employee experience and providing superior voice quality, premium features, and world-class integrations, Evolve IP is able to meet users and businesses where they are. Making it easier for them to successfully adjust to a Work Anywhere future.”  Today’s announcement builds on Evolve IP’s and Webex’s already robust partnership.   “Building on our mutual vision to delight the mid-sized businesses, Cisco is thrilled to join with Evolve IP to deliver Evolve Anywhere with Webex,” said Tony Lopresti, Senior Director of Product Management at Webex. “With fully integrated Webex technology, Evolve IP’s users will experience a modern, all-in-one collaboration tool that delivers simple, flexible, communications, making their businesses more productive and more secure, with any device from anywhere.”   Evolve Anywhere with Webex enables enterprises to call, meet, and message in an always on workspace to facilitate continuous workflow—all in a simplified, automated, and compliant manner:  Calling – Evolve IP adds high fidelity voice and PBX features natively to the Cisco Webex application with coverage in over 50 countries and seamless support for a variety of traditional handsets and Cisco devices. Meetings – Energize meetings and get results with immersive HD video that integrates with users’ calendars and other devices at the touch of a button. Personalized layouts and immersive sharing, noise canceling abilities, rich AI-powered transcriptions and translations, and people insights, are just a few of the features users rely on to be more productive and effective in the workplace.  Messaging – Users easily connect and collaborate with people inside and outside of their company to stay on top of what matters, all in one place. Messaging, file sharing, and one-click calling online and offline is a breeze using searchable spaces that integrate with business apps to improve efficiency and workflows.   Collaboration – Integrate Webex with essential apps for simplified collaboration, such as Outlook to schedule, view, and join Webex Meetings from a users’ calendar. Embed Webex Calling and Meetings into the Microsoft Teams UI. Share and co-edit OneDrive or SharePoint files from within a Webex space.  By building upon their partnership and platforms, Evolve IP and Cisco continue to advance their shared vision of helping people achieve more delightful, immersive, and inclusive work experiences.

Hybrid Workplace

Empowering the Hybrid Workforce is the Catalyst Behind Evolve IP’s Recent Brand EvolutionKING OF PRUSSIA, Pa. — March 7, 2022 — Having made a name for itself by partnering with the world’s biggest companies to bring together their unified communications, collaboration, voice, virtual desktop, and contact center tools into a single, secure solution, Evolve IP’s® success also embodies a distinctively human element in its approach to technology.Since its launch in 2007, Evolve IP has been committed to helping enterprise IT focus on user experience, not infrastructure; designing a new, better way for organizations to buy and deploy IT services. As Ciara McNeely, Vice President of Marketing for Evolve IP, explained, Evolve IP’s people-centricity has always existed, but it was the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting move to remote work that brought the company’s central tenet to the forefront of their story: “For the past 30 years, IT strategies have been based around locations as the ‘unit of measure’ for most of the business investment,” McNeely said. “Fast forward to today, though, and hybrid work is here to stay and, in many cases, 100% of employees are remote at least part of the time. This shift has made the base unit of measure in any IT strategy the end user and it has completely changed the way businesses consider cloud services. So, we felt like it was time to focus our entire brand around making the future of work better for everyone and counting our success in terms of people served, not locations supported.”Making the future of work better for everyone is not only a company mantra, but also a deeply ingrained component of the company’s business strategy, further built on a 5-month-long rebranding effort in conjunction with Liquid Agency, a leading Silicon Valley brand consulting firm.One of the biggest takeaways from the rebranding work for Evolve IP’s CEO, Pete Stevenson, was viewing Evolve IP’s brand story through the lens of today’s ‘new normal’. “We rebranded because our approach to the market has to incorporate the rapid changes and adoption of remote work solutions that have become commonplace in today’s business world.” Stevenson said. “Our Work Anywhere solutions have become significantly more relevant and critical in hybrid work environments,” explained Stevenson. “We believe our brand promise isn’t just about technology and services, but also about how we care for our customers. It’s the combination of it all that represents who we are, how we go to market, and our team’s attitude towards solving complex communications problems for our clients. It’s that simple”In a world where the hybrid workplace is here to stay and a company’s ability to support remote teams could be the difference between retaining or losing valuable talent, Evolve IP is uniquely positioned to be an essential IT ally to its customers. The seamlessly integrated, easy-to-use productivity solutions deliver an unparalleled employee experience platform tailored to today’s hybrid workforce. As Christian Teeft explained, “The workplace is no longer a location, but a collection of people—people who need to work together whenever and from wherever they are. The technology they depend on needs to play well together and we make sure that it does.”To learn more about how Evolve IP is making the future of work better for everyone, contact Evolve IP today.
