MetaSwitch, long a pillar of IP telephony, is now at a crossroads: its flagship application Max UC is nearing its end, and its owner, Microsoft, has carried out mass layoffs. These changes raise serious questions about the platform’s long-term viability. Service providers must therefore quickly consider a transition to ensure the continuity of their offerings. Yeastar, an established player for more than eighteen years, offers a robust alternative suited to operators’ current needs.
Plan your transition
With key personnel gone, MetaSwitch’s reliability is now uncertain. Operators must plan ahead for migration to a new provider to avoid compromising their competitiveness.

With 18 years of experience, Yeastar offers comprehensive UCaaS solutions that are easy to deploy and manage. Its softphone, Linkus, is a direct replacement for Max UC.
