Atos to acquire Unify from Gores and Siemens - Seite 2

 

New services for the digital age

Together with Unify, Atos would bridge the gap between communication and IT services. Unify is recognized by Industry analysts as "leader" in corporate telephony and "visionary" for unified communications. Leveraging over 3,000 patents, Unify technologies would expand Atos' digital transformation offerings.

 

In particular, Unify developed "Circuit", a category defining communication solution, the first of its kind enabled by the new Web RTC. It provides with HD audio and video quality amazing seamless channel/device movement, powerful and contextual search, social collaboration, content storage, contact integration with other systems (e.g. LinkedIn, Outlook) with a simple single application and user interface as opposed to most existing solutions. This convinced Siemens deciding for Unify against competition and to become the first enterprise customer to use Unify Circuit on a large scale.
