*Security Note on RingCentral: On July 28, 2026, RingCentral disclosed a data breach resulting from a social-engineering attack attributed to the ShinyHunters extortion group[cite: 1]. Approximately 1.6 million customer records (names, emails, phone numbers, and physical addresses) were exposed[cite: 1]. There is no indication that call content, financial data, or core platform availability was affected[cite: 1]. Because we recommend RingCentral for highly compliance-sensitive legal, financial, and corporate environments[cite: 1], Netconverse proactively helps clients evaluate RingCentral’s post-incident remediation steps and security posture during platform evaluation[cite: 1].
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does working with Netconverse cost more than buying directly from RingCentral or Nextiva?
A: No. Because we act as an authorized technology broker, our leverage often allows us to secure lower rates and waived implementation fees compared to standard direct pricing—all while adding our strategic management layer.
Q: Can Netconverse help us migrate from our existing cloud PBX to a new platform?
A: Absolutely. We handle the entire transition lifecycle: phone number porting schedules, call flow design, desk phone reprogramming, and staff training to ensure zero operational downtime.
