🔎 A deeper dive:
Curious about virtual phone systems, what "VoIP" means, and how the different types of phone services stack up? Our in-house telephony wizard, Max, wrote a guide on the differences between VoIP vs PBX systems. Or, alternatively, you might want to learn more about on-premises vs cloud phone systems.
❓ What’s UCaaS?
UCaaS platforms are like the next evolution of VoIP phone systems. They still let you have conference calls from a desktop or mobile app over an Internet connection. The difference is that UCaaS platforms give you other communications channels too, like video conferencing and SMS/MMS + team messaging. For many small businesses that don’t want to manage (and pay for) a huge bloated tech stack, UCaaS solutions are great because they consolidate a bunch of different functions into a single app or software.

📱 Need an Internet connection upgrade?
T-Mobile and Dialpad have actually teamed up to give you access to T-Mobile’s lightning-fast 5G network and Dialpad’s unified communications platform together inone cost-effective package. If you want high-quality audio and video calls from anywhere, check it out.

👉 Quick sidenote:
Not all UCaaS and VoIP phone services have the same integrations, so if this is important to you, make sure that the software that you want integrations for are included.
