Holmdel-based Vonage took first place in the 2018 Aragon Research Innovation Award’s Communications Platform as a Service (CPaaS) category. This award recognizes Vonage’s capacity to give powerful, fully integrated, and programmable communications solutions through Nexmo, their API platform. The award was formally presented on December 6th during Aragon Transform, Aragon’s annual award ceremony.
Leveraging a combination of cloud contact centers, unified communications, and programmable communication solutions, the platform doesn’t just improve productivity and meet employer needs, but also assists customers and the ways they want to interact. Through this and their other cloud-based APIs, Vonage allows for easily embedded social media, voice, video, phone verification, and other features into their applications.
“We’re honored to receive this award as a reflection of our continued innovation in creating unique and meaningful solutions that are revolutionizing business communications,” said Omar Javaid, Vonage’s Chief Product Officer in a press statement. “Programmable, intelligent communications enable enterprises to improve the ways they engage with their customers in real time through their preferred channels – whether that’s video, SMS, social chat, or voice.”
Their VP of Corporate Communications, Jo Ann Tizzano, received her own award during the ceremony, the 2018 Aragon Research Women in Technology Award for PR. This award goes to an individual instead of a whole company, and shows the achievements of women that demonstrate outstanding professional and personal growth while contributing to the technology industry.
