Consulting Firm Emergent Success Picks Hosted Phone and Fax System from RingCentralBy Mae Kowalke, TMCnet Senior Editor Businesses in many industries struggle with decisions regarding the best phone solution to meet their needs. No matter what product or service a company offers, the ability to easily and affordably connect with customers, and to keep internal teams — whether at the same site or geographically dispersed — in touch is of vital importance.
One such company, Emergent Success, wrestled with the phone system question and decided that the hosted business phone service from RingCentral (News - Alert) was just what it needed. Emergent is a consulting firm with a distributed workforce, and as such efficient communications is key to its success.
With the goal of optimizing its efficiency and staying true to its business model, Emergent tapped RingCentral for a multi-extension business phone service setup with the features one might expect in an enterprise-class solution but at a price affordable to a much smaller company.
“We wanted the professionalism and functionality of a Fortune 500 phone service but needed flexibility to connect easily with our team of professionals, regardless of their location,” said Janet Buck, co-principal of Emergent Success, in a statement. “RingCentral delivered all of that and more at a dramatically lower price than traditional telecommunications services.”
With the RingCentral system, Emergent’s staff of consultants can access voicemails and faxes from their BlackBerry (News - Alert) PDAs. This access is just part of the power the service offers. Buck also cited the following capabilities as key reasons why Emergent picked the RingCentral solution:
Buck said that ultimately the decision to go with RingCentral had a lot to do with the fact that the company really understands the communications needs of small to medium-sized businesses (SMBs).
“Every facet of the system, from the Web interface to the professional feature set, was clearly designed with the entrepreneur in mind,” Buck said. “With RingCentral we can confidently and seamlessly grow our business knowing that the system is scalable, cutting edge and synergistic with the needs of our business.”
