management_suite2

How it works

 

CONNECT includes two key components:
SIP to Web interop and Management Suite.

The SIP to Web video call interoperability is done by the CONNECT service in cloud which handles the real-time media.

The Management Suite is easily implemented on your own network with a VM image that can be hosted within most virtualized environments. This way, all CDR and booking data remain safe within your premises.

This “dual implementation” ensures data privacy while providing the scale and flexibility of a cloud service.

Please note that the Government solution has a different setup.
