60%

60% of Australian employees now work from home at least part of the week.

$175b

Global UCaaS market is expected to grow from USD 56.1B in 2025 to USD 175.8B by 2030.

50yr

NEC has delivered secure ICT and managed services to Australian customers for over 50 years.

Overview

UNIVERGE BLUE is NEC’s easy-to-use cloud communications platform that brings together business calling, meetings, messaging, file collaboration and customer engagement in one subscription.

It simplifies collaboration for employees and customers alike, embedding advanced calling directly into Microsoft Teams while enabling secure, reliable access across devices. Delivered through NEC’s ISO 27001-certified managed services framework, UNIVERGE BLUE provides 99.999% availability, scalable capacity, and subscription-based pricing that avoids CapEx shocks.

Organisations can modernise at their own pace, with options to retain existing PSTN contracts (BYOT) or extend an NEC PBX with CONNECT BRIDGE during transition. As needs grow, modules like ENGAGE (contact centre) and ARCHIVE (compliance retention) can be added seamlessly, making it easy to expand without disruption.

Cloud collaboration that scales with your business.
