The newest generation of enterprise mobility - Business Mobile Convergence (BMC) - promises to integrate mobile voice and unified communications as a service (UCaaS) capabilities more tightly than ever, removing friction and security risk from the mobile work experience. BMC leverages the user's mobile number as the UCaaS phone number, enabling a true single number identity across devices and platforms. BMC solutions are available from several leading vendors, and have the potential to gain popularity among knowledge workers and frontline workers who need to communicate, collaborate, and perform business processes on mobile devices. In this session, two leading analysts will provide data and insights from their research on BMC and UC, and highlight the main benefits and challenges. You'll come away better able to evaluate and implement BMC solutions to improve employee experience and business outcomes.

Takeaways:

  • Learn how BMC differs from previous-generation mobile convergence.
  • Understand how BMC offerings are differentiated.
  • Understand the availability and maturity of BMC offerings.
  • Get details on costs and BMC offerings, and whether they provide ROI.
