Product Details

8x8 is an all-in-one cloud-based communications platform that brings together enterprise-grade phone capabilities, video meetings, and team messaging on your desktop and smartphone.

Leveraging Citrix UC Premium optimization via the Citrix WebRTC SDK, the 8x8 Work app interfaces directly with the Citrix virtualization stack, which remotes our WebRTC API calls to the Chromium media engine inside the Citrix Workspace app. This allows us to minimize the number of network hops and optimize the delivery of audio between callers.
