Buy vs build dilemma with Sippo
28 November 2017
Sippo is the name of a WebRTC product family authored by Quobis which includes the following products:
An example of pre-built application is Sippo Web Collaborator, a fully-featured corporate client with advanced capabilities that works with the Sippo WAC, with key features like:
- Rich communications suite that support different unified communication methods with no need to install or update anything in the user devices.
- Features to manage seamless integration with existing NGN, IMS or VoIP networks of services providers or enterprises.
- APIs to manage user provisioning, OSS and BSS.
- Carrier-class high availability solution with fully standards based features.
- Also available as application for smartphones.
But in some scenarios, this type of pre-build applications is not enough as customer as demanding some specific features like fully-integration on existing mobile applications or third party applications like agents suites of contact center platforms.
Using the Sippo building-blocks is the best way to accommodate the flexibility that the customer is demanding to and effective time-to-market strategy, as you will take advantage of code, modules and functionalities that have been developed previously.
