REMINDER: NEC’s UNIVERGE BLUE business is being directly assumed by Intermedia Cloud Communications
What you may not know is that Intermedia has been the underlying technology provider for the NEC UNIVERGE BLUE platform since 2020, meaning there is no action needed on your part at this time and there is no change to your solution and services.
You will begin to see banding changes and logo changes with some future software updates to Univerge Blue.
Other than the logo and name, everything else will continue to work as it has previously.
REMINDER: you will still contact Clarktel at service@clarktel.net for all of your technical support needs.
