Enterprises and service providers around the globe trust software and network solutions from Ribbon Communications. The solutions help organizations secure and advance their networks and are used by financial institutions, healthcare providers, the transport industry, defence, and government agencies.
Ribbon Communications stands out from the crowd because its products are crafted to address mission-critical activities. They’re more resilient, fault-tolerant, secure, and offer more scalability than competitive offerings.
The network provider’s products thrive in multi-vendor setups and leverage open standards. You won’t be limited to a single vendor. Ribbon can unify legacy landscapes designed from mergers and corporate acquisitions. Government agencies and corporations now enjoy cost-effective, secure, and innovative real-time communications solutions. What’s more, they are more effective than alternative proprietary UC and PBX products.
Why are More Organizations Relying on Ribbon Communications?
Ribbon solutions are deployed across sophisticated enterprises and service providers globally.
The communication network provider’s SBC SWe Lite with the Quick Launch Wizard from Azure can dramatically lower the duration required to instantiate and set up direct routing voice services for clients on Microsoft Teams in minutes. The latest version (8.1) also offers SILK media services that facilitate quality voice calling in Teams over low-quality or low-bandwidth connections.
You’ll get these SILK media services at approximately 33% of what you’ll pay for Azure Virtual Machines for competitive solutions. The price points uniquely address small and medium-sized entities’ needs.
The latest SBC SWe Lite version includes a media bypass that improves voice quality. It creates a better, seamless Team experience by storing the call local’s media portion. This makes it a better concept than the relatively ineffective “hair-pinning” of media to the cloud.

But Ribbon can help you simplify the process. They offer risk-free modernization, integrated threat protection for your organization’s OT and IT, and improved optimization.
Analytics and Insights
The telecommunications landscape continues to change rapidly. Organizations now have to boost customer satisfaction, operate their networks efficiently, improve network security, and innovate new solutions.
Factors like OTT (Over The Top) hurdles, (IoT) Internet of Things, mobile technology growth, and 5G network deployment will offer comprehensive datasets on network and subscriber behaviour, needs, and preferences. So your organization must leverage machine learning and artificial intelligence with an analytics perspective to improve network security and operations, boost satisfaction, and grow your revenue base.
Ribbon analytics encompasses security, operations, and monetization tools. It delivers vast out-of-the-box cases for subscriber growth, security, and services assurance. It leverages AI and ML to identify common problem indicators in real-time before they occur. The big data analytics platform can help your company expand its investment using many top-shelf applications that can speed up deployment and deliver substantial returns.
Ribbon’s analytics applications offer crucial Ribbon Call Trust capabilities for Ribbon Call Trust. The analytics platform provides ML-based inference engines, which analyze network call data and identify fraud calls and robocalls. The insights then undergo reputation scoring in the Ribbon Identity Hub.
Azure SBC for Microsoft Teams Through Ribbon Communications
Corporations and government agencies now rely on Teams for file-sharing, video conferencing, and chat. With Ribbon, you can easily extend the capabilities through secure routing to external telephone networks and use Teams as your office phone system.
This gives you the freedom to immediately transfer a section or all your organization’s phone calls to Microsoft Teams. You can also shift gradually from a legacy PBX, migrating based on your needs. Since Teams works on smartphones, PC, or MacBook, users communicate via calls on any device and from any location. This keeps them productive and connected.
All these capabilities are made possible by Ribbon’s SBC – SWe Lite (Session Border Controller Software Edition Lite). It’s available in the AWS or Azure cloud. It securely bridges your organization’s network with a CSP (Communication Service Provider). You’re not required to deploy or manage any hardware since you will have everything on the cloud.
The easy-to-implement solution is operational minutes after installation. And, you can scale it up or down as required. There’s some more good news: the network provider offers a trial license of 30 days to let you try it out.

- Microsoft Certified
- You have up to 30 days to try it out
- Easy to install
