RingCentral is the museum’s official enterprise
cloud communications partner
RingCentral, Inc. (NYSE: RNG), a leading provider of global
enterprise cloud communications, collaboration, and contact center
solutions, today announced a new multi-year partnership with The
Computer History Museum, based in Mountain View, California.
RingCentral will be the museum’s enterprise cloud communications
partner, bringing a modern and unified communications
infrastructure—including messaging, video and phone—to the Bay
Area-based institution.
The Computer History Museum is a nonprofit organization with a
four-decade history as the world’s leading institution exploring
the history of computing and its ongoing impact on society. Over
the last several years, the museum started to digitally transform
the institution in order to extend its reach to various audiences
virtually across the globe. Once the COVID-19 pandemic hit, the
museum accelerated these initiatives by transitioning to an
all-digital format, offering digital tours and video content across
its various channels. With RingCentral, the museum will be able to
accelerate these initiatives by enabling employees and partners to
communicate from any location, on any device, across any mode - all
from a single application, while leveraging the technology to cater
to global audiences virtually.
“Computing has long contributed to many technologies that
enhance human capabilities and has had an immense impact on the way
we operate as a society,” said Dave Evans, chief information
officer and vice president of technology, Computer History Museum.
“Our mission at the Computer History Museum is to communicate
digitally with audiences all over the world, which is now essential
for business continuity given the current climate. RingCentral’s
state-of-the-art cloud technology will enable us to modernize our
communications infrastructure and reach our goal of transforming
into a 21st century museum for the new digital age.”
Recognizing the robust capabilities of RingCentral, the museum
will use RingCentral’s cloud platform to communicate and
collaborate with visitors, partners, and employees. RingCentral
enables greater mobility, flexibility, and delivers message, video,
and phone capabilities, all from one unified solution in the cloud.
Additionally, the museum will leverage RingCentral’s open platform
to seamlessly integrate with other applications they plan to use on
a daily basis. Easier to manage and more flexible and
cost-efficient than legacy, on-premises communications systems,
RingCentral’s cloud solutions meet the needs of today’s mobile and
distributed workforce.
“The Computer History Museum is an incredibly important
institution that combines preserving and enhancing the history of
computing with advancing knowledge and facilitating learning and
the exchange of ideas,” said Anand Eswaran, president and chief
operating officer, RingCentral. “We look forward to enabling the
museum to reach its digital transformation goals and finding new
modern and creative ways to reach its diverse audiences
virtually.”
