NEW YORK, Sept. 6, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- MetTel, the communications and digital transformation leader, today launched TrueUC, the first all-in-one unified communications (UC) hub designed to interconnect key business applications for the mobility and versatility millennial workers demand.

While today's mobile professional typically relies on a laptop and smart phone, as an alternative, TrueUC can be used with a smart phone or tablet with keyboard powered by MetTel mobile connectivity and mobile device management (MDM). Now the mobile worker is equipped with a single device that provides all business computing and communications.

"TrueUC is the first UC + collaboration solution that brings the best of the market to the device of our choice for the way we live and work today," said Marshall Aronow, CEO of MetTel. "A new generation of Millennial professionals has grown up with the freedom of mobility, texting, video+voice and the ability to carry their social lives in their pockets. We've done the same thing now for their professional lives."

For the first time, organizations can access a cloud, API-driven UC solution that combines text, voice, video, chat, email and business app integration plus mobile connectivity, Mobile Device Management, single bill and single support number --- all from a single source TrueUC provides workflow, communications and productivity capabilities, typically only accessible when in the office – now available with any mobile device.

Fulfilling a Growing Marketplace Need: Accessing Work on the Go
TrueUC can reside on any Android or IoS device and integrate with all any other smart devices, including land lines. TrueUC can easily connect a Samsung DeX enabled Galaxy mobile phone or tablet to a monitor, keyboard and mouse to work in an optimized and secured desktop experience protected by Samsung Knox™ defense-grade mobile security. Samsung Dex also enables optimized Windows VDI solutions for a full remote desktop access.

In addition to its mobile design point and SMS capability, another key differentiator for TrueUC serves as an app hub using a set of open APIs that allow integration with a range of critical cloud business applications such as Microsoft Office 365, Google G-Suite, Salesforce, Box and Twitter, among others, truly enabling a mobile office experience. The solution provides collaboration tools to improve productivity of highly mobile and widely dispersed workers. Some popular features include instant messaging, voice calling, video conferencing, desktop sharing, email and contextual content. TrueUC is also the only integrated offering of its kind to include SMS text messaging, users can now receive text messages bound for desk phones and respond to them.
