CloudBond™ 365
CloudBond 365 cements the connection between on-premises and cloud, allowing companies to enjoy the full potential of Skype for Business while providing the flexibility desired to leverage the power and promise of the cloud.
AudioCodes CloudBond™ 365 is a modular, adaptable solution for the data center, customer premises or the branch. A versatile all-in-one Skype for Business appliance designed for hybrid environments, it combines the best of the Skype for Business server, the Cloud-PBX and the service provider’s voice services.
The industry has validated the concept of unified communications (UC) as a staple in the workplace with trends indicating that cloud is the next wave to hit. These two technologies, combined in the form of cloud-delivered UC, represent a seismic shift in how organizations interact both internally and externally.
