Trenton Thunder Take to Cloud Naming Vantage Unified Official Communications Partner

Professionals sports is all about finding a competitive edge, putting together the best talent to take the franchise to a championship – not much different than the enterprise when you think about it. The cloud is offering these organizations a shot.

The Trenton Thunder announced the selection of Vantage Unified as the franchise’s official communications partner. Vantage Unified will converge the Thunder’s front office, ticket sales, administration, marketing and game day management – welcoming the Yankees Double-A affiliate to the digital age.

“The Vantage team took the time to listen to our goals and presented a plan to satisfy those goals. It’s great team work. Vantage Unified’s leadership in the cloud communications, sales desk, contact center space and their understanding of our needs makes them a perfect partner for us as we strive to be one of the league’s most innovative teams” said Jeff Hurley, General Manager and Chief Operating Officer for the Trenton Thunder. “This partnership will provide our fans and staff with a best-in-class communications experience.”

Major League Baseball isn’t shy about embracing cloud communications; recently the Philadelphia Phillies named Mitel its official communication and collaboration partner.

“We’re excited to partner with the Trenton Thunder to enhance their overall communications experience and help increase ticket sales,” said Doug Fagan, President, Vantage Unified. “The partnership will give the Thunder access to our MAXcore 2.0 cloud communications platform that integrates voice, video, and team messaging, to enhance fan engagement, increase ticket sales and improve productivity across the organization. I wish we could help on the field, but we have no one who can hit a slider”.
