CollabTalk Podcast | Episode 113 with Alex Doyle

For Episode 113 of the CollabTalk Podcast, the conversation focused on how the rise of mobile phones and the internet revolutionized Unified Communications (UC), highlighting the significant impact of VoIP and IP telephony in the early 2000s and the advancements in UC systems through the integration of instant messaging, video conferencing, and mobility features. We also explore Verizon’s strategic entry into the UC market, emphasizing the shift towards cloud-based solutions and how the pandemic accelerated UC technology adoption, as well as the role of AI, VR/AR, 5G, and edge computing in shaping the future of UC.
