Accelerating Seamless Communications with Buddycom in Partnership with Cisco
Science Arts, Inc.’s Buddycom has been certified by Cisco Systems G.K. a Solution Partner Program. We are pleased to announce that we have begun working with the Cisco Meraki and Cisco Webex Teams. This is the first step in this collaboration.

In order to provide a wider range of high-quality communication solutions, Science Arts and Cisco have validated the compatibility of their respective product lines. For seamless communication and convenience, Cisco Meraki, Cisco's cloud-managed wireless access point, maximizes Buddycom's performance over Wi-Fi.

In addition, the company also began working with the Cisco WebEx teams, which is a team collaboration tool provided by Cisco. By pressing the PTT (push talk) button on the Buddycom app screen or using a peripheral device such as a microphone speaker, the content can be transcribed and shared in real time with the Cisco Webex Teams channel. This further enhances and streamlines business communications in the field.

By integrating with Cisco Meraki and Cisco Webex Teams, Buddycom has further expanded its use in the business.

Buddycom is also featured on the DevNet case study page, and Science Arts will continue to work with Cisco on the global development of Buddycom, the future of team communications.
