Business Wire
8x8 Solutions, the UK/European arm of 8x8, Inc, today announced
that its new London City office, located at 65 Fenchurch Street,
EC3M 4BE, is fully operational and will ensure that 8x8 is well
positioned to meet the growing demand for cloud-based
communications throughout the UK.
The new Fenchurch Street premises will provide 8x8 with
additional and more central meeting and demo facilities to
complement those of 8x8 Solutions’ Aylesbury Head Office.
“We are seeing a significant rise in interest in 8x8’s
cloud-based unified communications, contact centre and
collaboration services. This interest is being driven by the
growing awareness of businesses, across all sizes and sectors, as
to the substantial business benefits and competitive edge that
cloud communications can deliver,” explained Kevin Scott-Cowell,
8x8 Solutions’ CEO.
“Our decision to open an office in the City was clearly a good
one as it has been closely followed by the announcement from the
International Monetary Fund (IMF) that the UK’s economy is growing
faster than those of every other major developed country!”
continued Scott-Cowell.
8x8’s secure and reliable cloud-based communications solutions
replace traditional premises-based business telephone and contact
centre systems with a flexible, easy to deploy and cost effective
alternative that solves critical challenges faced by many
businesses today such as managing globally distributed workforces
and mobile devices, ensuring business continuity, and integrating
with core enterprise applications and IT systems.
“With demand growing for our services, plus growing confidence
in an improving economy, this really is an exciting time for 8x8
and its channel partners. We are working hard to make sure that we
are able to take full advantage of the increasing business
opportunities we are seeing. 8x8 is extremely well placed to
continue to deliver robust and secure cloud-based services which
allow our customers to improve productivity, efficiency, business
agility and deliver a great customer experience by enabling their
employees to work smarter, all at the same time as reducing costs!”
concluded Scott-Cowell.
