With Phonism now integrated into EdgeView’s Service Control Center, provisioning and managing any SIP device, including ATAs, Desk phones, Video, or Conference devices, is simplified. Phonism eliminates manual provisioning and enables a completely zero-touch support process, and as a result, IT managers and telecom support teams are freed up to focus on high priority activities. At the same time, Phonism’s cloud-based technology handles the devices’ ongoing management, keeping them up to date with already proven and vetted software and firmware updates.
“We selected Phonism for their advanced cloud-centric approach and the seamless integration into the EdgeView Service Control Center,” said Kevin Riley, Chief Technology Officer at Ribbon. “Their proven platform with communications service providers and enterprise customers made Phonism a natural fit and a welcomed addition to manage connected endpoints in conjunction with our cloud-based platforms. This partnership is entirely in-line with Ribbon’s Intelligent Edge strategy to provide an end-to-end view of service performance and security.”
Major service providers and enterprises around the world rely upon EdgeView for industry-leading service assurance, security and application prioritization.
