Allstream Expands Its Unified Communications Offering for US and Canadian Customers

Max UC delivers a UCaaS solution with rich voice and PBX features, video meetings, messaging and more.

PRESS RELEASE — CHANNEL PARTNERS CONFERENCE & EXPO, LAS VEGAS, April 12 — Allstream (Booth 1854 and a featured CP Expo sponsor), a leader in business communications, announced the launch of Max UC. Max UC delivers a UCaaS solution with rich voice and PBX features, video meetings, messaging, plus complete contact management features through an intuitive user interface.

Through its new offering, Max UC delivers reliable and high-quality voice services by leveraging Allstream’s Intelligent Platform. This allows for simple onboarding and key features resulting in a highly intuitive user experience. Max UC integrates messaging, meetings and video on its desktop and mobile Max client. The client is available on Windows, Mac OS, Android or iOS and is integrated with Microsoft 365 and Teams.

Remote work and nomadic work forces are the future of work. We are seeing working life moving constantly from desk to laptop to smart phone to tablet, and the workforce is becoming more distributed.

Allstream’s Max UC is the solution for the adaptable employee, providing a fully featured soft phone that enables employees to send and receive calls, instant messages (IM), or video calls from any internet connected device.

“Our philosophy at Allstream is to deliver the best customer experience with easy-to-use technology. With the launch of Max UC, Allstream is doing exactly that — providing our customers with the technology, together with our people, to help businesses execute on their objectives,” said Stephen Fisher, Allstream COO. “Max UC combines the best elements of unified communications, ease of use, and seamless integration across all devices — with the power of business enabling software that our customers will be delighted to use.”
