\nPress Release Source:<\/span>8×8, Inc.<\/a><\/p>\n

Feb 11, 2014. SAN JOSE, Calif.\u2013(BUSINESS WIRE)\u2013 8\u00d78, Inc.(NASDAQ:EGHT), a provider of cloud-based unified communications and collaboration solutions, today announced that it has been selected by Rubicon Project, operator of one of the advertising industry\u2019s largest independent real-time trading platforms for digital advertising, to provide 8\u00d78 Virtual Office business VoIP, unified communications and mobile solutions to its nine international locations.<\/p>\n

Rubicon Projecthas engineered one of the largest real-time cloud and Big Data computing systems, processing trillions of transactions within milliseconds each month. The company\u2019s pioneering technology created a new model for the advertising industry\u2014similar to what NASDAQ did for stock trading. Rubicon Project\u2019s automated advertising platform is used by more than 500 of the world\u2019s premium publishers to transact with over 100,000 ad brands globally.<\/p>\n

8\u00d78\u2032s cloud-based telephony solutions enabledRubicon Projectto complete its domestic rollout in just five days. Once 8\u00d78 services were deployed in the company\u2019sLos Angelesheadquarters andSan Francisco,Seattle,ChicagoandNew Yorkoffices, the international rollout began. Within 3 weeks, the entire company, including international offices inParis,Hamburg,SydneyandLondon, was united on 8\u00d78\u2032s VoIP telephony platform.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe had a very aggressive schedule because we wanted to complete our implementation by the end of 2013,\u201d saidTim McQuillen, Chief Knowledge Officer ofRubicon Project. \u201c8\u00d78 made a number of promises to us, and kept every single one of them. Without 8\u00d78\u2032s support, we would not have been able to deliver this project on time.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rubicon Projecthas implemented over 300 8\u00d78 Virtual Office extensions, including mobile apps for iOS and Android devices. Users can take or make calls using their desk phones, PC-based soft phones, or smartphones. A unified company directory and 4-digit extension dialing make it easy to reach colleagues at other offices\u2014even those in other countries. Chat and video capabilities give employees multiple ways to communicate and collaborate, depending on the workflow.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur previous hardware-based PBX worked, but lacked modern phone features like extension dialing between offices and voicemail-to-email integration,\u201d said McQuillen. \u201c8\u00d78\u2032s cloud telephony services deliver the rich capabilities and voice quality we need with almost zero IT intervention from us. Instead of maintaining hardware, we can focus on running the business.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201c8\u00d78 cloud communications solutions can quickly unify distributed organizations across the country, or around the world, because ease of deployment is built into our solutions,\u201d said 8\u00d78 CEOVik Verma. \u201cOur deep industry experience in providing unified communications for tens of thousands of companies means we can confidently meet even the most ambitious time frames for our customers.\u201d<\/p>\n
