  1. This quarter our team has been hard at work preparing product updates and apps for Kazoocon. Be sure to secure your tickets and join us in Las Vegas! Partner Spotlight Did you know that agents typically spend close to 10 minutes on a single call? The agent then spends nearly the same amount of time documenting and classifying the calls, writing 100-word summaries, and completing other required actions in the company’s system of record. In this case, note-taking is approximately 50% of the total handle time. CPaaS Acceleration Alliance recently featured a game-changing innovation by Vinix and 2600Hz - one that could redefine how we handle note-taking during calls, saving both time and money. Mark Diaz, the CEO of Vinix, highlighted the challenge of taking notes during a live call. Listening and typing simultaneously is not only arduous but often results in critical information being missed. It's a skill that many call center agents struggle to master effectively. Recognizing this challenge, 2600Hz and Vinix joined forces to devise a groundbreaking solution tailored for outsourced call centers. This innovation harnesses the power of artificial intelligence to transform the note-taking process. By actively listening to conversations, this AI technology can transcribe and analyze spoken language while also gauging sentiment. The result? Precise and valuable notes generated mere seconds after the phone call concludes. Here's a quick rundown of what makes this development so exciting: ▶️It's available today: No long wait on this technology. It is ready today! ▶️ It's easy to deploy: It's designed for effortless integration. ▶️ It provides real benefits to enterprises: It offers tangible benefits to any call center, saving both time and money, while also improving customer experience. Don't miss out on this new AI technology. Vinix and 2600Hz's real-time call transcription and note-taking solution is set to revolutionize how we handle customer calls. Click here to see Diaz's full presentation. Marketing Updates It wouldn’t be a 2600Hz newsletter without some media and press updates. Here are a few highlights from Q3: The clock is ticking! Kazoocon will take place October 23rd-25th at the Palms in Las Vegas. This conference is all about pushing boundaries, having a blast, and creating lifelong connections. Secure your tickets today! A recent press release highlighted our impressive lineup of sponsors for Kazoocon 2023. We are proud sponsors of Cavell Summit | North America! Has cloud communication innovation plateaued? Patrick Sullivan, 2600Hz's Co-CEO, affirmed that the innovation cycle is accelerating. Read more about his response here. Sullivan writes a LinkedIn Article on the ups and downs of kiteboarding and startups. It's been a decade of knowledge, innovation, and connections. Take a trip down memory lane to understand the evolution of Kazoocon and what to expect at Kazoocon 2023! Stay tuned for more announcements and solutions coming soon. Remember to follow us on LinkedIn and Facebook.

We have one of the top 3 largest North America wireless providers as our customer (and about to bring on a second). 3. We have customers and opensource users in 6 of the 7 continents. Still hoping to find someone in Antarctica that needs a distributed communication platform. 4. We have 90+ employees (still mostly engineers/product people). 5. We are still bootstrapped. Our passion is to bring all business communications together. We could never have done this without the amazing team members and our customers who believed in us.

Listen to the full podcast here. We wrapped up the 3rd quarter with a UC Today article introducing comm.land, our new end user portal that unifies the communications provider's solutions into one UI.

As always, we’ve been busy and are excited to share these updates with you. Highlights From Q2 In April, we published a new podcast with Xarios Technologies that provides an update on the strategic partnership we launched between KAZOO and Dimensions in March of 2020.

  6. Q1 2021 Quarterly Newsletter From March 30, 2021 It’s hard to believe that we’re almost at the end of the first quarter of 2021 — time flies!

  7. Q3 2020 Quarterly Newsletter From September 30, 2020 Fall is here and we only have one more quarter of 2020 to go. The 2600Hz team took no breaks this summer, which means we have a ton of exciting updates for you. One of the many things we did in Q3 was create a Product Survey Forum in our Community.

You don’t have to be a current customer to participate in the surveys, so check them out and make sure to join the Community and follow the topic so you’ll be notified when new surveys are available.

We are thrilled to be recognized for our innovation and growth, and are grateful for all of our partners. We couldn’t have done it without all of you! Learn more about the UC Awards and see a list of all the winners here. In August we announced a new and exciting partnership with OneBill, a leading billing and revenue management platform provider.

We are always proud to be a partner of the Cloud Communications Alliance, and never cease to enjoy attending their events. The CCA, along with The Cavell Group, did a fabulous job putting on the multi-day virtual event where we gained a ton of valuable insights about the state of the market (which we summarized for you here). Not only that, but our very own Alisa Bartash had the opportunity to represent 2600Hz in the event’s Shark Tank competition — and won!

This application allows you to set unique rules that modify the caller ID display based on the outgoing phone in just three easy steps. You can set rules that match a feature code, area code(s), or a Regular Expression. Once set, each outgoing call that matches the pattern can display a modified phone number on the caller ID screen. Check out our video, user guide and FAQ here. 988 National Suicide Prevention Lifeline — The FCC has designated 988 as the new nationwide 3-digit phone number for Americans in crisis to connect with suicide prevention and mental health crisis counselors. All phone service providers are now mandated to direct 988 calls to the existing National Suicide Prevention Lifeline by July 16, 2022. 2600Hz has already implemented 988, so for customers using 2600Hz minutes, 988 will automatically route to the hotline.
