Communicado (News - Alert), a provider of management as a service platform solutions for converged and unified communications resellers, has announced that it is offering the Communicado Quick Start Dealer Program.

Based on the Communicado Streamline Management as a Service platform, this program is designed to enable value-added resellers (VARS) to remotely manage their customers’ converged networks quickly and efficiently.

A comprehensive program, it provides resellers with the necessary tools to drive significant new streams of revenue without lengthy ramp time or large capital expense.

"Thousands of companies are looking to their trusted VAR for expertise on how to manage the impact of IP telephony and unified communications on their IP networks," said Kerry Shih (News - Alert), Chief Strategist and Founder of Communicado, in a Wednesday statement.

 

"Our Streamline Quick Start Dealer Program helps VARs quickly comply. Gaining the ability to augment end user IT staff, who lack the specialized knowledge, tools, economies of scale and capital budgets otherwise required, helps VARs build stronger customer relationships and a recurring revenue opportunity."

"The valuable tools, training and resources offered by Communicado's Quick Start Dealer Program gives our service providers everything they need to successfully sell and remotely manage converged communications using the Communicado Streamline Management as a Service Platform," said Tim Brennan, Vice President of Crytycal Services Management, in Wednesday’s statement.

The Communicado VAR Quick Start Program includes five Streamline Open Toolbox Appliances that are offered with a one-year, 100-port subscription. Sales support features two sales training webinars with documentation, marketing collateral and sales material.

The VAR will also receive two technical training webinars, remote installation support and Streamline portal provisioning. The partner program component also offers access to a partner portal on Communicado’s website for valuable resources, assistance with demonstration tools, a home page website listing and Streamline Advisory Council Membership.

Communicado provides solutions for managing converged voice/data communications networks that carry real-time person-to-person business communications. The company’s field-tested solutions are used by more than 400 advanced technology adapters including Allergan, St. Joseph Health System, Tenet Healthcare and the Discovery Channel, to reduce business risk and lower operating costs, combining technical tools with business analytics.

This latest program from Communicado will better position VARs for maximizing their reach in the market. In addition, by providing the tools that VARs need to deliver value to the end user, Communicado will also be able to extend its reach and strengthen its positioning. In doing so, the company will also help to drive demand for its solutions.
