Briefing Room

The success of RCS will be driven by the ability for users to have the rich presence status of contacts, which requires all contacts to be utilizing RCS. To that end RCS-compliant devices and interoperability between operators is very important and will be the two elements that will determine the near-term success of RCS. There are a lot of moving pieces that need to come together in the next 9-12 months for RCS to be successful long-term. Ultimately the fate of RCS is with the operators as they push handset compliance and interoperability amongst themselves.
