But there are steps you should take to ensure you not only get the ROI you expect from cloud telephony services, but that you remain in control of your UCaaS spend.

Calero-MDSL, a leader in the high-growth Technology Expense Management
(TEM) software space, announced that it is making a significant expansion to
its solution offering by launching a Unified Communications-as-a-Service
(UCaaS) Expense Management module as part of its platform. The company is
the first-to-market with a comprehensive solution for managing and optimizing
both the variable and fixed costs associated with UCaaS programs integrated
with its established wireline and mobility programs.

It's a great bet that you never did any thinking about moving all your employees to work from home before we all had to do so at the start of the COVID pandemic. But have you done any thinking yet about how to best bring some or all of them back to the office when it ends?

The secret sauce to a great relationship between clients and their technology expense management (TEM) provider is a blending of information, business insight, and interpersonal communication. When these three elements are combined properly, with healthy measures of trust and confidence stirred in, the results are a successful business relationship beneficial to everyone. This is the foundation of promoting a positive, proactive, productive partnership.
