Fuze is committed to meeting the communication needs of the modern worker and continues to enhance its offerings to address these constantly changing demands.

Gartner also says, “By 2023, the number of remote workers will have doubled to over two-thirds of digital workers, shifting buyer requirements to demand work-anywhere capabilities. By 2024, 75% of enterprise users will not use a desk-phone, up from 30% in 2020.” Gartner defines unified communications as a service (UCaaS) as a cloud-delivered service that provides many of the same functions as premises-based unified communications (UC) solutions.

Over the past year, Fuze has expanded its suite of integrations, launching two Microsoft Teams offerings, Click to Connect and Direct Routing, as well as integrations with Zapier, Slack, and Gmail. This portfolio is part of Fuze’s Integrations Ecosystem, which extends Fuze’s open platform strategy with adjacent enterprise technologies empowering organizations to tailor workflows with pre-built and custom integrations that drive productivity and efficiency. The company also developed a “Remote Work” resource center that includes best practices for working remotely in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
