CAMPBELL, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 27, 2024-- 8x8, Inc. (NASDAQ: EGHT), a leading business communications, CX, and CPaaS platform provider, today announced that ​​a new report by industry expert Tsahi Levent-Levi and BlogGeek.me named 8x8 Jitsi as a Service (JaaS) as a leader in the programmable video market. 8x8 JaaS is part of the 8x8 CPaaS portfolio, which helps enterprises drive business growth by integrating various communication channels, including SMS, voice, chat apps, and video to enhance customer experience.

Recognized as one of the six top competitors in the industry, out of 19, the report highlights 8x8 CPaaS’ various programmable video integration options – including open source, hosted, and hybrid – ensuring a suitable solution for any business use case. Further, 8x8 received the top score for the solution’s ability and performance, demonstrating 8x8's commitment to their product and validating its long-term viability.

“8x8 truly exemplifies what every company is trying to accomplish in the programmable video market,” said Tsahi Levent-Levi, Founder of BlogGeek.me. “8x8’s commitment to its customers and providing a reliable solution is illustrated by their ability to provide every organization with the integration and deployment options they need to meet their business needs.”

“8x8 Jitsi is a highly popular open source media server,” said Tsahi Levent-Levi, Founder of BlogGeek.me. “Having 8x8 JaaS offer it as a managed solution makes it an easy and safe choice for customers looking for scalability and performance without the operational headaches.
