LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM--(Marketwired - Aug 8, 2017) - Arkadin, an NTT Communications company and market leader in cloud Unified Communications and Collaboration services, today announced two prestigious awards for the company's new digital meeting space.

2017 Communications Solutions Products of the Year
Arkadin Vision was recognized for exceptional innovation by global integrated media company TMC. "Congratulations to Arkadin for being honored with a Communications Solutions Product of the Year Award," said Rich Tehrani, CEO, TMC. "Arkadin Vision is truly an innovative product and is amongst the best solutions brought to market in the past 12 months that facilitate business transformation in voice, data and video communications. I look forward to continued excellence from Arkadin in 2018 and beyond."

Gold 'Best-in-Biz International' Award for Best New Product Feature of the Year
Arkadin's newly launched SmartStart end-user onboarding portal is viewed as a game changer in solving the vexing problem of user adoption. Introduced with Arkadin Vision, the new tool designed for the digital workplace gets users up and running quickly and efficiently for achieving high levels of productivity and ROI. Market intelligence demonstrates that no other company in the UC space uses a tool of this kind to drive customer adoption of services in such a quick and efficient manner. The multi-channel onboarding tool also addresses the growing trend for customer self-care by giving customers all they need in one easily accessible place.

"We created SmartStart in partnership with Oracle Eloqua to create an onboarding journey that is fully automated and personalized," says Nikki de Kretser, VP Marketing at Arkadin. "SmartStart not only helps users to get started quickly and easily, it removes the hassle faced by the IT group who are tasked with embedding these new digital transformation technologies. We're thrilled to have this recognition for our efforts."

Arkadin Vision Meets Market need for Simpler, more Streamlined Collaboration
Arkadin Vision reflects trends underway that are driving the need for instant connectivity between different technologies and platforms. Momentum for Skype for Business in enterprises and mobile workforces that requires virtual collaboration anytime, anywhere and from any device, including video room systems, are key factors. The service bridges the more restrictive, traditional approach to collaboration, with a unified all-in-one solution that maximizes technology investments while removing barriers to communications.
