LoopUp Co-CEO and Co-Founder Steve Flavell has been featured in Intelligent CIO North America, highlighting why multinational enterprises are moving away from fragmented, region-by-region telecoms toward unified, cloud-based models integrated with their UC platforms. The piece explores how legacy procurement and operating models from traditional providers are out of step with how global organizations now run Teams and other collaboration tools at scale.
Steve outlines the market’s recent shifts: the move from on-premises to cloud services, the integration of telephony into UC platforms like Microsoft Teams, and the acceleration toward single global providers that can deliver consistent service, contracts, portals, and support worldwide. He notes that more than 100 telcos have aligned with Microsoft’s Operator Connect and Direct Routing programs as enterprises prioritize unified communications.
The article makes the case for eliminating the inefficiencies of multiple regional vendors. With one provider across countries, enterprises gain simpler management, consistent SLAs, and a platform that supports modern work and AI-readiness while keeping users productive wherever they are.
