Value-Added Distributor Jenne, Inc. Builds its Cloud Solutions Portfolio


Jenne, Inc., a leading value-added distributor of business telephony, audio and video conferencing, unified communications, data networking and physical security and surveillance products, continues to build its cloud solutions portfolio by expanding and adding new partnerships with leading cloud vendors. Jenne has recently expanded its agreements with Digium and Plantronics (News - Alert) and has signed a new agreement with RingCentral.

Jenne's expanded agreement with Digium is to serve as a Cloud Master Agent for Digium's Switchvox Cloud Unified Communications (News - Alert) business phone system and SIP trunking services. Jenne's resellers now can sign on as Digium agents under Jenne and leverage their expertise to rapidly deploy cloud-based solutions to their SMB customers with little or no learning curve.

With Plantronics (NYSE: PLT), Jenne now is offering Plantronics Device-as-a-Service Pro program, which is a pay-as-you-go program that resellers can offer end-users. It is designed to help stimulate sales of the reseller's cloud services offerings, adds a recurring revenue stream that doesn't burden cash flow, and makes it easier for the reseller to offer headsets since Plantronics handles thehardware logistics, support and financing.



Jenne also recently signed a new agreement with RingCentral (News - Alert) (NYSE: RNG) to offer its cloud communications systems through its reseller network in the U.S. RingCentral Office is a complete cloud business phone system that is designed for today's mobile and dispersed workforces. It provides a next generation solution alternative to complex, on-premise legacy phone systems.

"The demand for cloud deployed solutions continues to gain momentum in the channel," said Patrick Howard, senior director of cloud solutions and product management, Jenne, Inc. "The number of Jenne channel partners looking for cloud solutions to meet end customer business needs is rapidly growing. Our new agreements with Digium, Plantronics and RingCentral allow Jenne to continue to meet this growing demand, create new business and simplify the process to deploy cloud solutions for our resellers. We're excited to be working with all of these companies to expand the cloud unified communications marketplace."


Digium, Plantronics DaaS Pro and RingCentral join other cloud solution offerings in Jenne's portfolio including AvayaLive Video service, Lifesize's Cloud video conferencing solution, and ADTRAN's (News - Alert) ProCloud solution for WiFi and switches Jenne will continue to add leading cloud solutions to its portfolio with new contracts expected to be signed in the coming months.
