Featured Customer Session:
"ACO versus on premise, what will your future of telecommunication and collaboration look like for your company?"


Tim Eddinger

Enterprise Networks Manager, Seneca Foods Corporation


ACO versus on premise, what will your future of telecommunication and collaboration look like for your company? Let me show you the benefits and the numbers that are helping Seneca move forward with ACO and why the time is now.

More about this session:

Stand on our own has been the motto of our entire IT Team at Seneca, but standing on your own doesn’t mean we have to keep our business applications on premise. Tim will share how Seneca has been approaching the decision to migrate to ACO. Insight into the numbers and benefits behind that decision.

Some of the topics that will be covered:

- Unifying communications
- Integration and migration
- Cost breakdown of current environment vs. ACO
- What additional services can be utilized
- Solving complex solutions that created programming challenges

Avaya Featured Session:
 
"Building Experiences with Avaya OneCloud Experience Platform" - Carolyn Laffan, Avaya

This presentation will describe the value and differentiation of the Avaya OneCloud Experience Platform. Customers are more empowered, and demanding, than ever before. In response organizations are making adjustments to how they sell, how they service, and how they work. This presentation will demonstrate the value of creating a Total Experience strategy, why an Experience Platform is more than just a simple rebrand of CCaaS, and the value of a converged platform.
