LONDON, UK - 01 MARCH 2016 - 3CX, developer of the next-generation, software-based PBX 3CX Phone System, has been singled out by Frost & Sullivan for market leadership, earning an award for its high-quality, software-based Unified Communications solution.
Frost & Sullivan, a global leader in the information and growth consulting industry for more than 50 years, said that the software-based 3CX Phone System “excelled in terms of user features, architectural flexibility, ease of use and management,” in the award analysis.
The industry expert cited 3CX for its rapid annual growth rate, unequalled in the UC market, saying, “3CX’s expanding customer base and double-digit annual revenue growth rates demonstrate its ability to deliver superior performance and value in a dynamic and challenging market.”
“3CX is on the cutting edge of innovation in a fiercely competitive market,” the expert said. “3CX stands out among unified communications vendors with its innovative technology, compelling feature set, competitive pricing, and ability to respond to evolving market conditions and customer demand.”
Elka Popova, Program Director and Senior Fellow, Connected Work Digital Transformation, Frost & Sullivan said:
“Today, market evolution is driven by customer need to lower communications infrastructure costs and improve business agility. With its compelling functionality and lower total cost of ownership (TCO), 3CX has earned Frost & Sullivan's recognition as the price/performance value leader in the unified communications market. It is well positioned to capture growing customer demand for innovative solutions that provide a competitive edge while reducing the burden on internal resources. Through a strong value proposition, 3CX is better able to address changing market requirements and increasing competitive pressures than other market participants.”Nick Galea, CEO, 3CX, said:
“Frost & Sullivan is one of the leading analyst firms in our industry, and we are proud to receive this distinction. Frost & Sullivan has recognized 3CX for its growing importance in the UC market, in terms of its large and fast-growing installed base and high-quality technology. There is a clear trend towards software-based PBXs, and Frost & Sullivan has acknowledged that the features we provide are on the cusp of industry trends.”
Rich and Robust Set of Features
The award cites the rich and robust set of features available in 3CX Phone System, including voicemail and fax to email, instant messaging and presence, audio and video conferencing, smartphone and softphone clients, CRM integration and call center features.
Quality, however, is much higher at 3CX, the award analysis says. Frost & Sullivan stresses the ease of use of 3CX Phone System: “Compared with most other communications solutions, 3CX Phone System provides a greater ease of deployment, management and use for both IT admins and end users.”
Compelling Feature Set, Continuous Innovation
3CX has successfully aligned technology features development with key customer trends, Frost & Sullivan says. Businesses want improved collaboration among remote workers, and they want it to be served by powerful Unified Communications tools.
“3CX’s compelling feature set and continuous innovation resonate well with business customers,” the award analysis says. “Businesses of all sizes and industries use 3CX’s comprehensive Unified Communication capabilities to support their diverse workforce. All-inclusive licence bundles allow customer organizations to economically deliver advanced features (e.g., video conferencing, soft phones) to their entire user base.
Solution enhancements around deeper WebRTC integration with existing SIP technologies, greater HIPAA and PCI compliance, and more detailed reporting will further expand 3CX Phone System’s appeal.
The award analysis noted that 3CX, as a software-based solution, is managed from a user-friendly, Web-based console, providing a single point of support for the whole system. Users can view contact presence and choose a desk phone, a mobile device or a PC soft client to message, call and conference others, according to their availability and needs.
