RingCentral announced new, powerful Alexa for Business integrations that bring an entirely reimagined user experience to communications and collaboration in the modern workplace. These integrations with Amazon® Alexa enable the use of voice commands to join meetings, send text messages, listen to voicemails, and make calls in an easy and intuitive way.

RingCentral Meetings™ for Alexa for Business reduces the friction of starting and managing online meetings or conference calls simply by using voice commands. In addition, RingCentral users can join any meeting scheduled in other Amazon Alexa–compatible third-party meeting applications, without the need to download those applications.

“We’re proud to collaborate with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to introduce these powerful voice recognition capabilities for Alexa for Business,” said David Lee, vice president of platform products, RingCentral. “At RingCentral, we strive to give our users a rich and intuitive user experience.”
