Belmont, CA, USA, March, 2021 -- RingCentral, Inc. (NYSE:RNG), a provider of global enterprise cloud communications, video meetings, collaboration, and contact center solutions, announced that it has been recognized as a Leader in two IDC MarketScape reports for UCaaS Enterprise and small and medium-sized business (SMB) market segments. The Enterprise report evaluates 19 different vendors that sell to organizations with 1000 or more employees, while the SMB report evaluates 15 different vendors that sell to organizations with fewer than 1,000 employees. In both reports, RingCentral was named a Leader.

IDC estimates that worldwide UCaaS service provider revenue, including Over the Top (OTT) providers, will reach $16.1 billion in 2024 in its Worldwide UCaaS Service Provider Forecast, 2020–2024 (Aug 2020). As businesses look for ways to empower employees to communicate easily, share information, and meet as needed with colleagues, customers, and partners, opportunities to use UCaaS solutions expand around the world.

"Enterprises should consider RingCentral when they need a UCaaS platform that has an emphasis on security and reliability and has been integrated across a broad portfolio of unified communications and collaboration solution elements with access to a platform that comes with numerous integrations to enterprise software and services," said Denise Lund, research director, Worldwide Telecom and Unified Communications at IDC. "RingCentral offers SMBs a good value with its RingCentral Office solution, but the company has also made a significant investment in its free video conferencing and team messaging solution with RingCentral Glip, to address the entry point barrier for any business to easily start their journey to a full cloud communications solution."

Carson Hostetter, senior vice president of Worldwide Field Sales at RingCentral said, "We’re observing a major shift in how we work, how we communicate, and how we collaborate. RingCentral is helping Enterprise organizations support their workforce to work from anywhere with secure, reliable cloud-based communications. We’re proud to be recognized by the IDC MarketScape report as a Leader in UCaaS. The combination of an enterprise-ready platform that easily integrates with existing enterprise applications and adds capabilities such as team messaging, video meetings, and a cloud phone system is exactly what large organizations need to help their people work productively from anywhere."

Faiza Hughell, senior vice president for Small to Medium Business at RingCentral said, "Small and medium-sized businesses are at the heart of every economy in the world. Enabling those organizations to support their people working from anywhere with the same capabilities as larger firms is our business. We support them as their needs change and as they expand their business. We are thrilled that the IDC MarketScape report recognizes our capabilities and our commitment to giving these organizations the very best communications capabilities."
