At Ericsson-LG Enterprise, we are always striving to share important information with our community of global partners. As in-person events are still largely inaccessible for many of our partners, we created the iPECS insights series of webinars to stay connected.
These monthly presentations help us to share the latest information with our partners in an interactive and inspirational way. iPECS Insights began in 2020 and we have hosted five webinars in 2021 to date. We take a look at highlights of these fantastic presentations from 2021 so far.
February
iPECS Insights 2021 began in February with a webinar hosted by Ahed Alkhatib, Ericsson-LG Enterprise’s Global Head of Sales & Marketing. This presentation was focused on how a subscription-based model can help both partners and customers to gain more value from their services.
Assisted by guest speaker Will Morey from UK partner Pragma, Ahed explained that customers now require a great experience alongside their products, and this is best delivered through a subscription model.
Will explained how Pragma went from having zero recurring revenue streams to having Cloud subscriptions as a core part of their offering. Will explained some of the many benefits as well as the challenges of switching to a subscription-based model. Users especially love receiving future innovations and updates as soon as they were available.

March
March’s presentation was hosted by Philip Jung, a Subject Matter Expert with great experience on the iPECS Cloud platform. Philip used March’s Insights to introduce the latest updates heading to iPECS Cloud in 2021 and beyond.
Philip began the webinar with a full overview of iPECS ONE; he introduced many of iPECS ONE’s features and explained its role as the successor of UCE and iPECS Meetings. One main focus of this section was to highlight the flexibility of WebRTC as well as the many ways you can collaborate and share content with internal and external users through iPECS ONE.
Philip also introduced the updates coming to iPECS Cloud’s Contact Centre Solution as well as highlights from iPECS Cloud’s 4.0 update, including Analytics and MS Teams Integration.
