Pure IP has achieved the milestone of providing full PSTN replacement services in 50 countries after expanding the offering to Latvia and Turkey.
The global cloud voice connector, which was acquired by BCM One earlier this year, also recently launched PSTN replacement services in South Korea.
In total, Pure IP supports enterprise telephony users in around 80 countries, which it believes acts as proof of its ability and intention to offer multinational organisations effective voice solutions and cross-border expertise.
Diana Florea, Technical Solutions Director at Pure IP, believes that these figures do not even fully capture its global service footprint: “We are excited to have reached the 50-country milestone for providing licensed full PSTN replacement services, which shows our commitment to serving global businesses that are looking for one single cloud telephony provider.
“However, while this number is significant, it only tells part of the story, as our global customers also care about the number of countries where we are actively supporting users, which currently sits at nearly 80, as well as the potential countries we could support, which is nearing 140.”
According to Pure IP, its enterprise voice service gives customers a “secure and robust” network, with features including local ring back and emergency services across all regions.
The company takes an ‘agnostic’ approach by supporting legacy systems and devices and enabling connectivity to various platforms, such as Microsoft Teams, Zoom Phone, and Cisco Webex.
An Eventful Year for Pure IP
This time last year, Pure IP became a Certified Calling Provider through Cloud Connect for Webex. This meant customers could choose Pure IP to enable Cloud Connect for Webex Calling. Pure IP was one of a selection of providers that underwent a rigorous certification process.
In February 2023, Diana Florea, Director of Technical Solutions, Pure IP and Adam Gent, Program Manager, Webex Calling, discussed their new Cloud Connect PSTN Connectivity Program with UC Today.
The big news dropped on April 5th, 2023, that BCM One was acquiring Pure IP.
BCM One is a prominent provider of next-generation communications and managed services. The CEO of BCM One, Geoff Bloss, said that Pure IP’s expertise in migrating enterprise customers from PBX and UCaaS platforms to Microsoft Teams was the biggest motivator behind the deal.
It adds a “robust” means of connecting international business to Microsoft Teams, including pre-sales planning, solution architecture, pre-sales assessment, and dedicated support resources.
The acquisition was completed a few months later, making Pure IP its ninth acquisition.
Bloss spoke to UC Today’s David Dungay about its acquisition of Pure IP, in which he explains why the acquisition complements its current portfolio, as well as its implications for customers and partners.
More recently, in August 2023, Bloss provided UC Today with an update report on its Pure IP acquisition. The BCM One CEO said he felt “extraordinarily positive” about the progress it has made alongside Pure IP so far. He explains that the main purpose of the acquisition is to future-proof BCM One’s foundations, as both the market and its business are heading in the direction embodied by Pure IP.
