UCAdvisor: Our Business Model

UCAdvisor empowers companies to start their digital transformation journey. With risk-free, simple funding for any project, exceptional resources, and industry-leading guidance, we can ensure any business has the opportunity to thrive in this changing landscape.

UCAdvisor is an all-in-one platform for research, short-listing, industry insights, and funding, UCAdvisor gives business leaders all the tools they need to empower their digital investment decisions. We help companies find the digital transformation solutions they need, then ensure they have the financial support required to take the next step in their journey.

With years of experience in the technology sector, we know how difficult it can be to keep up with the rapidly evolving pace of modern technology. Our services deliver the advice, finances, and resources required for all components of digital change, from UCaaS and CCaaS, to SD-WAN, Networking, Security and more.

We created our platform to help companies sidestep the complexity associated with upgrading and expanding their technology stack, offering completely objective expertise, guidance, and even free financial support for transformation projects.

What is UCAdvisor? Our Goals, Values, and Core Focus

UCAdvisor is more than just a comparison website. It’s a resource where business leaders can access end-to-end guidance, pioneering comparison matrix technology, and in-depth industry reports and guidance. Our platform helps companies streamline the process of finding the ideal solution for their digital transformation needs, while ensuring every business gets the best possible deal to meet their specific requirements and budget.

Our core focus is on the business customer – the company leaders searching for ways to stay one step ahead of the competition in an increasingly complex digital space. We remove the need for IT and procurement teams to invest in complicated, disjointed, and drawn-out market research, by consolidating all of the data you need into one place.

While we work with leading vendors in the digital transformation space, we’re independent and vendor-agnostic. We don’t attempt to push customers towards specific vendors. Instead, we simply offer a helping hand to ensure business leaders can make the right decisions, according to their goals.

Nothing changes on your side, you still contract with your vendor directly, and follow your existing procurement processes. The only difference is you’ll be able to save time, effort, and expense on finding the right technology for your needs.

Our business processes are built around a series of key values, including:

• Funding: Helping companies to access the financial resources they need to accomplish any digital transformation objective. We provide risk-free access to funding to companies from all industries, with no limitations on applications.
• Impartiality: We commit to delivering a completely objective and impartial service. We offer advice solely without bias, based on the individual needs and requirements of each company we work with. We deliver the facts, and nothing else.
• Expertise: UCAdvisor can advise and guide companies in all areas of digital transformation. We can help with everything from finding the best UC or contact centre technology, to implementing new security tools, networking systems and more.
• Simplicity: We work to save companies time and money. This means we adapt to your requirements, work within your existing procurement framework, and tailor our services to suit you. Working with UCAdvisor couldn’t be easier.
• Trust: We’re open, transparent, and honest throughout every step of the procurement journey. We want to be the company our business users can trust to answer any and all of their questions quickly, and accurately, in any situation.
• Time saving: Our unique tools like the UCAdvisor comparison matrix saves decision makers time on finding the right solution for their digital transformation efforts. We act as the ultimate resource for any business in the process of digital change.

UCAdvisor Focus Areas: What We Do

Our core services revolve around helping businesses to track down the best digital transformation solutions for their specific needs. We act as a way not just for companies to find the best technology investments, but also to fund their growth with fantastic grants.
Our core services and solutions include:

Funding
As the demand for digital transformation has grown in recent years, becoming a “matter of survival” for many leading brands, we’ve noticed countless companies struggling to find the financial resources they need to make the correct decisions for their business. That’s why we created the UCAdvisor Digital Transformation Fund.

Our transformation grant funding is a dedicated resource created by us for today’s business leaders, to help them unlock the extra resources they need. In the last two years, we’ve provided absolutely free funding to 90% of all digital transformation strategies managed through the UCAdvisor platform.

People interested in leveraging the digital transformation fund can calculate their potential funding options on our platform or seek insights from our team. There are no catches or gimmicks, and we don’t expect anything in return from our customers when they use our funds.

Resources and Market Research:
We know how difficult it can be to search through the web for endless market reports and insights to help your team make the right technology purchasing decisions. That’s why we’ve done the hard work for you, curating the top insights and industry knowledge in an easy-to-use environment.

We have a comprehensive case study library, where business leaders can browse through reports from some of the top vendors in the market and find the company best suited to their use cases. The UC Advisor blog also acts as a constantly updating and dynamic source of news, information, and guidance, all connected to the digital transformation market.

We even offer a range of best-practice resources, downloadable templates, and guides, perfect for companies who need help planning their next steps.

Comparison and Shortlisting
Our comparison matrix technology is custom-built to help businesses make the right decision for any digital transformation strategy. You can explore a range of vendors and narrow your options by sorting providers by available integrations, Microsoft Teams connections, desired features, options, and more. Our unique comparison matrix makes it easy to sort through options based on:

• Data storage and sovereignty
• Compliance and security features
• Minimum required SLAs
• Existing hardware support
• MS Teams or Citrix support
• Desired features and functionality
• Industry analysis and positioning

You can also input information about your desktop requirements, desired term lengths, number of user licenses, and required license costs, to get the most tailored insights possible for your needs. Shortlisting your digital change vendors is easier than ever with UCAdvisor.

Expertise:
We pride ourselves on being experts in digital transformation, ready to provide companies with all the resources they need to save time and money during business growth. Our resources are custom-built to address the needs of any business investing in next-level technology.

We can work with companies throughout the procurement process, providing support, as well as free transformation grant funding. Plus, we offer access to endless documents and tools for the digital transformation journey, including an exclusive comparison matrix.

What is the UCAdvisor Digital Transformation Fund?

The Digital Transformation Fund offered by UCAdvisor is one of the most exciting parts of our business model for modern clients. This free form of comprehensive financial support can help companies pay for up to 100% of their new technology when they’re upgrading their communication tools in the UCaaS and CCaaS space.

Getting involved with the Transformation Fund is easy. Every individual company who engages us when purchasing new technology from our listed providers will have the fund made available to them automatically. Even companies who have already initiated discussions with potential vendors can apply to have us apply funding retrospectively for their new project.

The UCAdvisor Transformation fund is a no-strings-attached solution, powered by the commissions available within the referral channel. We’ve developed a unique strategy for bundling and redistributing this funding as grant payments for our customers.

The funding you receive will have absolutely no limitations or requirements on how it should be spent. Many of our customers have used the funding to pay for early exit fees, make charitable donations, or simply pay for the cost of new hardware and software.

There’s no upper limit on the funding available to business leaders either. The exact amount of funding you receive will be dependent on the kinds of solutions you purchase from a partner vendor. Before you sign any contracts with your new vendor, we can give you an insight into how much money you can expect to be delivered to your chosen account.
