edgeBOX, a unique business proposal (Office Network in a Box)
Last modified on 2012-01-13 17:41:33 GMT. 0 comments. Top.
First time I heard about UBP (also known as USP – unique selling proposition) was reading on how a small business can differentiate from the rest, in a way that competition is not a problem to consider — that’s where the term Unique comes to a first plane.
Note, that’s not about differentiate from the competition, it’s about stays ahead or aside of the rest, just offering value on something different, something unique.
What is Unique about our offer ?
- the product edgeBOX is an Office-in-a-Box Server Appliance, a Unified Communications Solution that Provides All the Phone and Internet Communication / Data Services, a Small and Medium Size Business needs – your IT infrastructure in OneBox.
- the service and support comes with the Box remotely managed, it’s like “an over-your-shoulder” inside IT professional – the IT person comes within the BOX.
- the pricing is affordable and using a leasing model for two years under the warranty terms – your IT on a budget.
From all these combined came our marketing message: forget IT, we’ll do IT for you

OneBox allows me to work from Home

During last FIFA Cup (football aka soccer World Cup) I had a chance to enjoy all the advantages of working from Home, while using the edgeBOX solution running in the Office.
I was able to
- sit in front of our management computer to do some transactions
- receive calls on my office extension
- print on the office machine
- sit besides my associate and review a new order on his computer
- make some calls from my office extension
- have access to files on the office server
- even receive calls to my office extension on my cell
- and all these, on a secured way
So, in the future I have to remind myself when talking with the decision maker from any SMB, to tell them they can do it too.

Technology evaluations are inherently an internal process and evaluation for fit and ROI. However, the evaluation – or conversation – can benefit others. Interactive Intelligence is taking the initiative to make the conversation more meaningful. It’s a a bold idea, and so much more meaningful than a logo’d trinket. - Using UC to Re-invent the Channel - Jan.25, 2012
I’m really just scratching the surface here, but the idea is to show that channels can add value in new ways if they’re ready to move in a different direction. There is definitely some risk involved, as this is really early adopter territory, but can be especially effective for SMBs who don’t have much IT expertise, but want to get first mover advantage with UC.
“simplifying IT for abundance” is our premise and final goal.
