Extensive portfolio enables Ribbon partners to deliver secure cloud migrations to rapidly growing UC platforms like Microsoft Teams and Zoom, while mitigating fraud and robocalls 

PLANO, Texas, April 11, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Ribbon Communications Inc. (Nasdaq: RBBN), a global provider of real time communications software and IP Optical networking solutions to service providers, enterprises, and critical infrastructure sectors, today announced that it will be demonstrating key solutions at the Channel Partners Conference & Expo, April 11-14, in Las Vegas.

"Hybrid work is completely changing the basic tenets of business communications, and that will be on full display during this year's Channel Partners Conference," said Dave Hogan, Vice President Growth Segments at Ribbon. "Across the globe, Ribbon's channel partners are helping businesses facilitate the transition to hybrid work environments by making it easier for organizations to securely migrate to cloud-based communications for unified communications (UC) and contact centers."

Ribbon will be demonstrating its carrier-grade solutions that enable migrations to Microsoft Teams, Zoom Phone, and other leading cloud UC services globally. Additionally, Ribbon will highlight its ability to migrate and protect some of the world's largest contact center deployments.

Our partners are experts at delivering enterprise-wide our voice, security and analytics solutions to national and multi-national organizations, allowing them to gradually and seamlessly migrate legacy assets to secure cloud-based communications technology."
