[SatNews] 8×8, Inc. (NASDAQ: EGHT) has launched its suite of cloud-based…
…business communications services across Canada. The launch is the first in a series of expansions outside of the U.S. where 8×8 has been ranked as a market leader in cloud-based IP telephony and unified communications (UC) by industry research firms, including Gartner, Frost & Sullivan and Infonetics. Available immediately in most Canadian provinces, the 8×8 Virtual Office cloud communications suite provides small and medium businesses (SMBs) with services such as hosted VoIP, contact center, UC and videoconferencing. Customers can select local phone numbers in each province as well as virtual numbers from Canada, the United States and around the world, both of which save inbound callers the expense of long-distance charges. Companies with locations in Canada and the United States can now have a single, virtual PBX enabling extension dialing with high definition audio between international locations, all with no per minute charges. 8×8’s Virtual Office also gives SMBs the option, at no additional cost, of extending those services to smartphones and tablets, enabling their employees to stay productive and responsive on the road and at home.
