Rich Communication Services (RCS) originally marketed by GSMA marks the transition of messaging and voice capabilities from Circuit Switched technology to an all-IP world. RCS and VoLTE share the same IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) investment and leverage the same IMS capabilities. For consumers, it has the potential to combine voice and SMS with instant messaging or chat, live video sharing and file transfer across all devices and networks.
RCS will facilitate many consumer-related applications and solutions. From the communication service provider's perspective, RCS is an opportunity to better compete against OTT-based service offerings. From the third-party application and content provider perspective, RCS provides a means of leveraging telecom APIs to better integrate with communication apps.
With the introduction of RCS, an enterprise can leverage various API interfaces to fully integrate with their operations, providing differentiation not found today. Integration can occur between mobile network operator (network infrastructure and databases) and enterprise assets such as CRM and employee data. Businesses can enhance their communications infrastructure by providing a single interface from which users can initiate voice, video, and messaging sessions.
RCS provides access to these features directly from a device's address book, whether the device is a smartphone, wearable, tablet, o PC. In addition to traditional contact information (name, number, email address, social media identity) the enhanced RCS address book positively identifies users and identifies whether each contact's device can join a chat, initiate a video call, or send a file.
The publisher sees significant value via open API integration for various value-added enterprise RCS applications. One of those applications is the Corporate Enterprise Dashboard, which provides a key application for the carriers most-valued customers (businesses) to provide improved internal communications. In addition, RCS represents an opportunity for business to provide improved CRM via mixed media and branded customer contact, which is very important in the world of unwanted robocalls.
An alternative IP-based real-time communications solution, Web Real-time Communications (WebRTC) provides a framework, protocols, and API that facilitates real-time interactive voice, video, and data via a Web browser. The solutions, services, applications are supported by WebRTC are in direct competition with the CSP led initiative known as RCS. Therefore, WebRTC can be very disruptive to communication service provider business models, representing both an opportunity and a threat.
