A person's hand holding up a circular light.

SoftwareONE, the global leader in software and cloud portfolio management, today announced that UC Point, a global provider of Unified Communications and Collaboration (UC&C) services, will become part of its Unified Communications business. With UC Point, SoftwareONE will extend and enhance its Skype for Business and Microsoft Teams integrated offerings, as well as strengthen its Unified Communications as a Service (UCaaS) solutions.

The UC&C market is expanding rapidly as the modern workplace requires robust and flexible digital communications tools to be successful. According to Microsoft, 80% of the Fortune 500 are using cloud-enabled Unified Communication & Collaboration solutions. While effective and customizable UC&C solutions need to be championed by management to be used across organizations and support wider business goals, this is only possible with the right tools and partners. UC Point has worked closely with software and technology leaders in the UC&C space to create tailored customer solutions that are easy to use, customizable, secure, and highly reliable through a proprietary UC Point remote monitoring system.

"UC Point is joining forces with SoftwareONE to expand its center of excellence for Unified Communications, providing organizations with a comprehensive suite of products and services designed to maximize employee productivity and improve efficiencies with every task. With UC Point’s global expertise in voice, video and collaboration, we are expanding our offerings to support the UC&C needs of complex global organizations, and staying ahead of the evolving market.", Patrick Winter, CEO SoftwareONE

"Joining SoftwareONE is an amazing opportunity for our company and group of talented employees. Combining our services and footprint in multiple regions with SoftwareONE’s global presence and existing Unified Communication & Collaboration offerings, we can deliver one of the industry’s most comprehensive, enterprise-grade voice, video and collaboration suites.", Markus P. Keller, Founder and CEO of UC Point
