Telarus, Inc., a distributor of business data, voice and cloud services, will now market Telesphere’s (News - Alert) hosted solutions for voice, data, video and other managed services through its extensive network of agents and sub-agents throughout the United States.

Telesphere, based in Phoenix, AZ, is a provider of hosted cloud communications nationwide.

The agreement grants Telarus (News - Alert) and its partners access to Telesphere’s advanced portfolio of enterprise-level, unified communications services over Telesphere’s privately managed, nationwide IP MPLS network.

“We’re excited to partner with Telarus and their family of sub-agents to help bring our products and services to the Telarus national base of enterprise customers,” said Skyler Stewart, director of indirect channel, Telesphere, in a statement. “We have always had deep admiration for Telarus and their standing as one of the preeminent leaders in the telecom distribution industry.”

Stewart said that Telesphere’s expansive and cutting-edge solutions, coupled with Telarus’ strength in the sales channel, will be a win-win for all.

Lanny Gray, vice president of business development at Telarus, said that enterprise businesses are moving their communications services to the cloud for security and mobility, as well as redundancy and collaboration.

Gray said that Telesphere has led the field with its full slate of innovative hosted solutions

“Telesphere’s suite of solutions will be an outstanding addition to our portfolio and will provide our partners with a superior, high quality UCaaS option for their clients,” said Gray.

Earlier in October, Telarus had announced that it has entered into a new agreement with Integra, one of the largest facilities-based providers of communication and networking services in the western United States.

The new agreement expands the relationship between Telarus and Integra to reflect the changes and growth that both companies have experienced since the date of their original agreement in June 2011.
