Otta's take

Xav Kearney

CTO of Otta

According to Vonage, technology should make business communication easier, but it currently makes it more complicated due to the various communication platforms that users need to spend time learning how to use. Moreover, users often realise that the platform is not the right choice for them after wasting a lot of time understanding how to navigate it. Vonage aims to change this by providing enterprises with a flexible cloud communications platform that simplifies business communication.

Vonage offers a unified communications solution that is easy to understand and use every day. The platform integrates communication via voice, messaging, video, and data and gives clients the flexibility to choose from a wide range of tools and integrations or to create new ones using Vonage's APIs.

Following its acquisition by Ericsson - a multinational networking and telecommunications company - Vonage has been focused on expanding its presence in wireless enterprises and broadening its global offerings. Vonage won the 2022 FinTech Award for Outstanding Cloud Communications Solutions in recognition of its growth and continued dedication to the development of new technologies.
