The Fuze International and Unlimited Global plans are recommended for knowledge workers that have international clients and customers; they add unlimited outbound calls to 34 and 116 countries,respectively. Fuze Calling is best for knowledge workers with high calling needs but limited internal meeting requirements,and includes a subscription to the full-feature set of cloud-based Fuze voice calling features along with Fuze meeting capabilities. Fuze Meetings is for knowledge workers who have heavy meeting or internal communication needs but limited outbound calling requirements.

"Further enhancing the value of Fuze UCC solutions are Fuze Success Plans,which include programs for user adoption,customer support,and customer success," said Robert Arnold,principal analyst. "Fuze Success Plans are comprised of customer programs that help customers do more with their UCC solutions,expedite adoption,and accelerate ROI of cloud UCC service implementations. Customers unlock long-term value and success by partnering with experienced Fuze experts and accessing reporting and analytics tools,such as Fuze View and Fuze Discover,and consistently measuring important metrics to help understand utilization and performance."

The Fuze customer purchase and deployment experiences are truly differentiated and enhanced through Fuze Success Plans. Its variants include the Fuze Core Success Plan,which consists of a Fuze Customer Success Associate; Fuze View usage analytics reporting; and a defined set of service-level objectives. The second variant,the Fuze Enhanced Success and Premier Plans,is an upgrade for broader and deeper cloud UCC services supporting end user adoption and change management needed to expedite the value of customers' investments. The Plans are designed for customers migrating from premises-based,voice-centric environments to more robust Fuze cloud-based UCC functionality services across a larger number of users and locations.

"Unlike the majority of cloud UCC service providers,Fuze has concentrated on the specific requirements of enterprises," noted Arnold. "With a strong customer base that includes AstraZeneca,CareerBuilder,Kronos (now UKG),the PGA Tour,SAS International,and Waste Management,Fuze is well-positioned to leverage Fuze Success Plans to help customers optimize and expand their Fuze deployments,as well as attract many more new accounts."
