AVANT Communications Launches UCaaS Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) Assessment Tool
Leading Platform for IT decision making adds calculator to Pathfinder to help Trusted Advisors assist enterprise customers in faster, more informed UCaaS decision making
AVANT Communications, a platform for IT decision-making and the nation’s premier distributor for next generation technology, announces the launch of the UCaaS Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) Assessment Tool as part of the company’s Pathfinder platform, the most powerful face-to-face IT decision-making tool for enterprise customers. With the new tool, AVANT’s network of Trusted Advisors will be able to provide insight into costs of UCaaS solutions across a variety of variables to empower companies to make informed decisions for long-term impact and success.
The UCaaS TCO Assessment is a user-friendly, interactive tool that allows enterprises to calculate the return on investment for cloud communications solutions vs. traditional on-premise PBX solutions. Enterprise customers indicate their needs which are then entered as variables into the tool by their Trusted Advisor. The resulting output produces a visualization of costs and savings of cloud vs. on-prem solutions. AVANT Analytics, the market research division of AVANT, found in its latest 6-12 report on UCaaS solutions that 67% of businesses are planning to replace legacy telephone systems with UCaaS over the next 12 months. The highly anticipated assessment tool is equipping Trusted Advisors with the proper analysis to serve the needs of IT decision-makers in a period of immense innovation and rapid digital transformation.
