LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM--(Marketwired - Sep 1, 2016) - Arkadin, an NTT Communications company, and one of the largest and fastest growing global providers of Unified Communications and Collaboration services, announced it has been recognized as a Challenger in Gartner's Magic Quadrant for Unified Communications as a Service, Worldwide, published 23 August 2016. The combined NTT Communications/Arkadin entity is one of only 16 companies evaluated with services that met Gartner's stringent qualification criteria for eligibility.
"We believe our move to Challenger is a significant milestone for demonstrating our success in meeting global customer demand for cloud-based UC services," says Didier Jaubert, Arkadin CEO. "We feel this achievement is especially gratifying since fewer companies were included this year, which we believe makes the stakes even higher."
"Together with NTT Communications, we are committed to remaining at the forefront of UCaaS, with the most sophisticated infrastructure, networking and telecommunications capabilities," continued Mr. Jaubert. "We're especially excited about our new managed services offering which seamlessly integrates more advanced services, such as contact center, advanced reporting and PBX replacement capabilities, so organisations can easily benefit from the full range of hosted UC applications."
