Avaya Spaces™ Evaluated Less Than A Year After
Introduction of the Video Meetings and Collaboration App
Avaya (NYSE: AVYA), a global leader in solutions to enhance and
simplify communications and collaboration, today announced it is
already a Niche Player in the 2020 Gartner Magic Quadrant for
Meeting Solutions1. Gartner defines ‘Meeting Solutions’ as
offerings that “blend communications, collaboration and content
sharing to enable virtual meeting scenarios to satisfy a variety of
use cases.”
Avaya Spaces™, a video meeting and collaboration app that was
launched earlier this year to meet the needs of a
work-from-anywhere world, has modern user experience, strategic
partnerships, and global geographic reach. Avaya Spaces is an
all-in-one video meeting and collaboration app for the digital
workplace that changes the way work gets done in nearly 100
countries. Avaya Spaces helps businesses, schools, governments and
other organizations to bring together distributed groups of people
instantly with immersive work spaces where they can message, meet,
share content, manage tasks and collaborate in the cloud.
“The explosive growth of video conferencing and the
proliferation of platforms has created the need for easier to use,
all-in-one solutions that improve collaboration and reduce the
fatigue of too many apps,” said Simon Harrison, Senior Vice
President and Chief Marketing Officer, Avaya. “Customers and
employees need the right tools to elevate their work-from-anywhere
experience, as well as a fundamental shift in thinking when it
comes to using those tools - moving away from the idea of ‘just’
video meetings to collaborative, cloud-based work spaces. Avaya
Spaces enables businesses to excel at the usual day-to-day tasks,
but also the unplanned and new-priority work that arrives nearly
every moment of every day. For Avaya, being named in the 2020
Gartner Magic Quadrant for Meeting Solutions once again is
indicative of the progress we continue to make in customer-led
innovation.”
Avaya Spaces has seen significant growth since its introduction,
and has been an especially important solution for organizations
addressing the challenges of COVID-19. At the peak of the pandemic,
Avaya Spaces was offered for free to enable companies, schools,
governments and organizations of all kinds to adapt to remote work
and collaborate, stay connected and be productive while keeping
employees safe. As a result, Avaya Spaces video traffic increased
up to 2500 percent during the pandemic.
Avaya also recently announced a relationship with NVIDIA that
brings a new level of market-defining, AI-powered meeting
capabilities to Avaya Spaces, helping increase the impact and value
of visual, audio and collaborative experiences. Avaya Spaces is
offered with Avaya OneCloud™ Subscription, as well as on a
standalone basis.
More than 130,000 customers around the globe rely on Avaya to
reliably deliver secure, intelligent connections for their
customers and employees, including 90 percent of the Fortune 100.
Avaya has been named an April 2019 Customers’ Choice for Unified
Communications, and Avaya Spaces was reviewed by customers from a
wide range of industries2:
