RingCentral Australia Signs Master Agent Agreement with Westcon-Comstor

RingCentral’s wholly-owned subsidiary in Australia has announced that it signed a master agent partnership with an IT distributor in the region and will begin offering fully-integrated cloud communications solutions for its channel partners in Australia.

The partnership with Westcon-Comstor will make it possible to better deliver support as the increase of remote employees working from different locations heats up amid a global pandemic and social distancing rules.

Together, the UCaaS provider and IT distributor will allow partners to offer their customers solutions that bring even more value for their investments. Deep integration translates to speedy partner onboarding and a faster ROI.

“As a specialized technology distributor, we can leverage our channel experience, technical expertise, and sales know-how to really hit the ground running here,” said Phil Cameron, Managing Director, Westcon-Comstor Australia.

“Westcon already has a close partnership with RingCentral in a number of territories around the world, so we are excited about our opportunity in Australia.

Organizations in the area are demanding UCaaS solutions more than ever now as they transition away from legacy, on-prem communications systems to cloud offerings that are easier to manage, more cost-efficient, and mobile-first.

RingCentral not only has extensive integration capabilities thanks to an Open API platform, but it also boasts a strong developer community. It is recognized for its UCaaS offerings across the globe.

“Demand for UCaaS solutions among Australian organizations is phenomenal right now,” said Ben Swanson, Director of Channel Sales for Asia Pacific at RingCentral.

“Westcon has a well-established distribution business here in Australia and an extensive portfolio of complementary vendors and technologies that play perfectly with our cloud platform. We are excited by the possibilities in the integrated solutions we can develop with Westcon and present to their partners.”
