RingCentral-8×8?
RingCentral has approached 8×8 about a possible takeover. This is according to an unnamed Investing.com source who says that RingCentral is working with an investment bank to evaluate a potential transaction.
Blair Pleasant is president and principal analyst of COMMfusion.
“If the deal goes through – and that’s a big if – there would of course be the usual integration and migration issues facing both companies. It would be challenging for channel partners initially, as these things always are,” Pleasant said. “I would expect to see a pretty clear road map emerge fairly quickly, combining RingCentral message, video and phone with 8×8’s CCaaS and CPaaS offerings.”
