UberConference delivers state of the art, cloud-based collaboration tools for conference calling, a space that hasn’t seen innovation in decades. We’ve seen great traction from companies both large and small, who are looking to improve their employees’ conferencing experience, while also helping reduce their annual conference costs. We look forward to accelerating our rapid growth trajectory by teaming with Sprint.
