Keeping people connected – anytime, anywhere, on any device
Ensuring communications that are real-time is essential in today’s fast-paced business environment. Employees are looking for more and better ways to connect, share, collaborate and get more from the working day. Unified communications (including cloud PBX) enable people to collaborate more easily and effectively, no matter where they are, how they work or what device they use.
We've summarised the top reason's why kiwi businesses are choosing to move to NOW communication, leaving behind costly, complex traditional phone technology.

What is NOWs unified communication service?

Oil Intel
The roll-out of MiCollab by NOW has been exceptionally professional. The project team was always available, made sure we had regular catch-ups and spent extensive time training staff. The roll out to our 10 locations throughout New Zealand was planned immaculately. The team saw the project through until the end and really delivered as promised. We praise the service level of Now in every aspect.
Kiwitax
Kiwitax has been using NOW and the Mitel system for around a year now and we’ve found the installation and support have been very helpful over this time. Anytime we’ve had queries or little problems they’ve been fixed promptly which is important to us. The phone system works well with our team of 20 and I’d recommend this to other businesses as a great phone system and support network
