Speech Processing Solutions, the market leader in professional dictation and speech-to-text workflows, today announced it has joined RingCentral's award winning channel partner program as a sub-agent. RingCentral is a leading provider of global enterprise cloud communications, collaboration, and contact center solutions. As part of the program, Speech Processing Solutions will exclusively offer RingCentral's Unified Communications as a Service (UCaaS) solution to customers.
