The Professional Services offerings now include: Network readiness, Network integration and implementation, Mobility solutions, Contact center optimization and consulting, Voice and Data convergence, and SIP enablement.

As businesses rely more and more on mobile technology for their main source of communication, the demand for advanced and secure converged communication networks has increased.

"Our recently expanded Professional Services team now delivers an even more advanced communication solution set. We hold certifications from industry-leading partners including: Avaya, HP, Extreme Networks, Aruba, and AVST to name a few."
