SecureON helps set up businesses in various industries for optimal collaboration and communication.
What is CCaaS?
CCaaS (Contact Center as a Service) shares similarities with UCaaS as both are cloud-based, subscription-driven platforms that streamline communication. However, the primary difference lies in their intended use and features. UCaaS supports internal communication, offering tools like video conferencing, project management, and collaboration features. In contrast, CCaaS is tailored for contact centers, focusing on external communication and customer service enhancement tools.
CCaaS solutions enable seamless management of all customer interactions, including calls, emails, chats, and social media support, ensuring that every inquiry gets addressed quickly and efficiently.
CCaaS features include multichannel messaging, real-time and historical analytics, queuing, routing, call waiting, SMS texts, voicemail, video voicemail, AI-powered workflows, social media messaging, international numbers, custom greetings, live chat, IVR menus, IVAs, automation, and Help Desk and CRM integrations.
How UCaaS Can Work For You
UCaaS (Unified Communications as a Service) is a cloud-based solution that syncs various business communication tools into a single, unified platform. UCaaS streamlines both inbound and outbound communication channels, enabling seamless interaction without bouncing between multiple platforms.
Primary features of UCaaS include team chats, video conferencing, VoIP audio calls, screen sharing, whiteboards, and various in-meeting collaboration tools. UCaaS also supports mobile apps and integrates seamlessly with third-party tools such as CRM systems and project management software via APIs. SecureON can ensure all of these features are optimized for your unique needs.
