Westland Insurance Group Ltd., one of the largest and fastest-growing independent property and casualty insurance brokers in Canada and a family-owned company, has selected RingCentral, Inc., a leading provider of global enterprise cloud communications, video meetings, collaboration, and contact center solutions, to power its business communication needs. Westland selected RingCentral because RingCentral’s unified platform enables their company to scale as they enter a period of expected hyper growth. With RingCentral MVPTM (Message Video PhoneTM), Westland Insurance can seamlessly integrate their communications with existing business applications such as Microsoft Teams. Westland Insurance will roll out RingCentral to its more than 2,200 employees across Canada, with plans to grow further via their current national expansion plans.
“We are looking forward to RingCentral MVP helping us to connect, communicate, and collaborate more efficiently and effectively nationally with our brokerage sites and customers as well.”
Westland Insurance needed a single, reliable, and centralized communications solution to help improve communication across its locations. Managing multiple vendors for all the various on-premises solutions and hosted systems was becoming too cumbersome – it was time for a change, and Westland decided RingCentral was the perfect fit.
