Our Mission
Our reports focus on today’s most disruptive technologies, where the pace of change is rapid. These companies or technologies, which may have been relatively anonymous just a few years ago, have now emerged as highly viable solutions to resolve the business needs that led to their creation. They have, in effect, disrupted the IT landscape, which is well known for its accelerating pace of change and innovation.
The 6-12 Report is designed to provide enterprise technology leaders with a contemporary and relevant overview of the featured subject for the next 6 to 12 months. Each subject is selected based on its opportunity for adopting companies to realize competitive advantages within their particular industry, market space, or company size.
UCaaS The Landscape
Based on components, the Unified Communications as a Service (UCaaS) market has been segmented as follows:
- Telephony
- Unified Messaging
- Conferencing
- Collaboration Platforms and Applications
- Analytics

There are often different variations on these options but, by and large, features tend to fall into these categories. While many products and services fulfill at least some of these functions on a point basis, the true value of UCaaS lies in interoperability and integration. The basic value proposition is to combine all these features into a fully unified and fully compatible communications solution that displaces a series of point products, thereby simplifying management, strengthening interoperability and, in most cases, reducing cost and complexity.
