TORONTO – Rogers is offering small businesses a new mobile solution that it says brings the features of a traditional landline phone to a mobile phone.
Rogers Unison, powered by BroadSoft, uses a web portal to allow small businesses customers to connect with customers and employees regardless of location, which increases their productivity while also saving money previously spent on landlines, reads the news release. Customers may keep their landlines numbers and may also opt for features such as an automated answering system that greets customers and directs calls to the appropriate live person based on a directory of options, and the option to route incoming calls between employees until a live voice answers.
A Rogers Unison solution for larger businesses and the public sector will be available later this year.
"We're bringing a North American first to Canadian small businesses by making it possible for them to use their mobile phone to connect their entire business and team, eliminating the need for dated desk phones," said Rogers' Enterprise Business Unit president Nitin Kawale, in the release. "We think it's about time Canadian businesses have access to a mobile solution that not only lets them improve productivity and truly operate business on the go, but also realize significant cost savings."
