Effective immediately, Avaya is offering free 60-day access to Avaya Spaces, a cloud meeting and team collaboration solution accessible from a browser or mobile app that enables people and organizations to connect and collaborate remotely – and goes beyond integrating chat, voice, video, online meetings and content sharing. Initially offered free to education institutions and eligible non-profit organizations worldwide to help during the COVID-19 pandemic, Avaya Spaces is now available for free to organizations of any kind that need a simple, secure, and effective way to track communications and manage tasks when travel and connectivity are limited.
Additionally, the company is now offering free 90-day licenses to a wide range of Avaya unified communications solutions compatible with virtually every Avaya platform, to enable organizations to transition their teams into remote work environments to stay engaged and collaborate from anywhere in the world. The Avaya unified communications portfolio enhances engagement and productivity with powerful capabilities related to calling, collaboration and meetings, as well as a range of flexible, connected phones and devices.
As organizations worldwide rapidly shift to remote operations, Avaya has empowered over 300,000 workers to connect and collaborate remotely, and has seen a 700 percent increase in video collaboration traffic on the Avaya Spaces platform, helping ensure business and organizational continuity. For example, EVO Payment International is among the largest fully integrated merchant payment processors in the world, and needed to quickly adapt to a remote workforce. “As we are transitioning to more remote work and collaboration, we are depending on our Avaya solutions more than ever before,” said Richard Shaget, Global VP – Network and Telecom, EVO Payment International. “Avaya unified communications and collaboration solutions are part of our business continuity efforts and are enabling us to continue to meet the needs of our customers and keep our workforce safer and productive during this challenging time.”
