Per the partnership, Boca Raton, FL-based Jazzware will provide its proprietary software powered hospitality applications and universal connection middleware by capitalizing on Ooma’s avant-garde Enterprise unified communications as a service (UCaaS) platform.
This unique and powerful combination will enable operators and hotel owners to significantly cut down telephony costs while expanding its avenues to improve guest experience with best-in-class services. At a time when hotels are revamping their technology infrastructure to boost operational efficiencies, the latest move will help in streamlining the overall connectivity framework of the hospitality industry by eliminating obsolescent and expensive legacy services.

Markedly, its solution incorporates major hospitality systems on-premise and in the cloud, to empower staff while ensuring 24X7 service availability.

The offering will help in connecting contact centers and hotel premise to the Public Switched Telephone Network. Notably, Ooma Enterprises’ SIP and IP Trunking solutions offer unlimited usage plans, reduce operational costs and enhance phone systems with a nationwide coverage for flexible communications.
Thanks to Ooma’s affordable, customized unified communications and telephony solutions, network operators will also be able to cater to personalized networking preferences with utmost flexibility for a premium guest experience.
