Acision Launches WebRTC SDK Enabling the Next-Generation of One-click IP Communication Services
ATLANTA, WebRTC Conference & Expo IV, June 17, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
Forge by Acision Platform Empowers Enterprises to Enhance Customer
Engagement with the very latest Video, Voice, Messaging and Content Sharing Services
Acision, a global leader in mobile engagement services and an industry-first mover in
WebRTC technology, today announced the launch of its WebRTC SDK, which is now available
via its forge by Acision [https://forge.acision.com ] API platform. The Acision WebRTC SDK
will enable enterprises to easily incorporate browser-based WebRTC functionality, such as
video and voice calling, as well as content sharing, chat and IM sessions, into web and
mobile applications.
Enterprises, particularly those operating contact centres, are always looking to
enhance communication systems to advance customer engagement. With Acision's WebRTC SDK,
enterprises and developers can create new applications or add-ons to pre-existing
applications and services by using the single interface and self-service access of
Acision's forge site. Additionally, enterprises will benefit from the carrier-grade
security, reliability and expertise associated with Acision's 20+ year messaging history.
Supporting a broad range of iOS, Android devices and web browsers, key features
include:
- Smarter communication: Rich messaging, presence, and audio/video API
enables application developers to tailor communications to their needs.
- Security: WebRTC media is secured using best-of-breed technology. Messaging,
presence, and signalling are transported over secure HTTP and WebSocket connections.
- Scalable, cloud-based solution: The Acision SDK is deployed in a secure HIPPA
certified, elastic-scaling, multi-tenant, public cloud. We can also offer private
cloud deployments.
- Acision SDK: The SDK allows enterprises and carriers to quickly and easily add
rich B2B and B2C communications to native mobile and web apps.
Matt Cockett, EVP, Enterprise at Acision, commented: "WebRTC technology will
revolutionise the way businesses across all industries engage with their customers. With
our solution, which is part of our forge by Acision portfolio, companies can integrate the
latest click-to-call (voice), video-chat and IP messaging solutions, which can be built
into or on top of websites or mobile apps, via a single SDK all in one place, which is
unique in this market. Combining multiple pieces of valuable functionality into one SDK
that can then be integrated into internal systems means businesses can launch
differentiated services quickly while focusing their own development resources elsewhere."
"For retailers, for example, Acision's WebRTC SDK functionality means the ability to
increase customer loyalty through more varied and cost effective methods of communication
over and above email and SMS. Retailers can benefit due to the quick-to-deploy nature of
the toolkit, giving customers the ability to video chat with a representative or the
option to upload pictures. Video chat can also be implemented across other sectors such as
healthcare for patient support or cable providers for technical support," continued
Cockett.
This week, 17th -19th June, Acision will be showcasing how it is powering
transformative technology to provide next-level communication experiences at TMCNet's
WebRTC Conference & Expo IV. Representatives from Acision will be on hand throughout the
event, at stations 8 & 9, to discuss its latest WebRTC developments, SDK and to run
