Toshiba–s UCedge Empowers Users to Communicate Across Windows/Mac Computers, Tablets and Smartphones

IRVINE, CA — (Marketwired) — 12/16/14 — Toshiba America Information Systems, Inc., Telecommunication Systems Division () today released its new Unified Communications solution for Windows® and Mac® laptops and desktop computers, rounding out the device options for users. UCedge delivers a single application that empowers users to communicate on Windows and Mac laptops and desktop computers and Apple® and Android smartphones and tablets across Toshiba–s cloud and on-premises business telephone solutions, including hybrid cloud and on-premises networked solutions.

“UCedge gives users the power to communicate on the devices of their choice, untethering them from their desks. It gives them the same client application across devices, delivering single-number reach with business number Call ID, even when used with smartphones and tablets,” said Brian Metherell, Vice President and General Manager of Toshiba America Information Systems, Inc., Telecommunication Systems Division. “UCedge users can view avatar-based presence information and exchange instant messages, even with externally federated third-party clients that support XMPP standards. “Users can also visually manage calls and voice mails and cloud sync messaging in real-time across their multiple UCedge devices.”

UCedge enables the same user productivity benefits across all device types: Windows PCs, Mac computers, Apple and Android smartphones and tablets.

Work from anywhere using personal or business laptops, desktops or mobile devices as a business phone extension;

Enable easier connections with one-number reach, in or out of the office or out of the country;

Rapidly find contacts in a list synchronized with the office phone system and user-provided avatars; and

Use UCedge from up to three devices at the same time, synchronize in the cloud, and view consolidated instant messages and call history from any of the devices.

UCedge is a single client application compatible with Toshiba–s cloud service and IP-based business telephone solutions, as well as converged digital/IP systems with an IPedge Application Server. It works with Windows and Mac laptops and desktop computers as well as Apple and Android smartphones and tablets.
