A Better Alternative to In-house Development
Service providers are often intimidated by the Operator Connect integration requirements. Yet, they also assume that they can’t afford to use a 3rd party to develop new solutions as worry about lower margins, loss of control, reliability, and more.
Ribbon employees spend every day working with service providers, so Ribbon Connect for Operator Connect was developed with these concerns in mind. Ribbon Connect is designed to be less expensive than creating an in-house solution. Rather than build a practice from scratch, providers share the costs with their peers and leverage the shared learnings of a wider community.
Ribbon maintains carrier-grade networks for over 1,000 service providers, we understand your expectations and will meet them with Ribbon Connect for Operator Connect.

Workflow Automation = Customer Engagement
Ribbon Connect Enables Digital Workflows
Businesses expect to “Google it”, find a solution, acquire it, and begin deployment. They’re not interested in auto attendants, contact center agents, and phone calls that span multiple days or weeks.
Operator Connect uses the Teams Admin Center to make it easy for businesses to find a service provider. Ribbon Connect extends that digital engagement model with digital forms, automated responses, and intuitive workflows so prospects are immediately engaged and routed to the right sales team.
Revenue is at Risk
You Have to Be “In It to Win It”
Most geographies already have one or two providers signed up to deliver Operator Connect-based services. Providers need to act expeditiously to protect their brand. Otherwise, enterprise IT staff may simply “shop” the available telecom providers in the Teams admin center to get PSTN services – leaving other service providers out of the picture.
Don't Get Left Out!
