IntelePeer Extends its Partnership with Enabling Technologies

IntelePeer, Inc., a leading provider of on-demand, cloud-based communications, has extended its partnership with Enabling Technologies, a Microsoft (News - Alert) UC Partner of the Year.  The move, which was announced recently at the Microsoft Worldwide Partner Conference, will enable IntelePeer to serve as the exclusive SIP trunking service provider for Microsoft Lync Unified Communications (News - Alert) (UC) deployments.

According to the terms of the partnership agreement, IntelePeer will provide complete communications enablement services for Microsoft LyncUnified Communications on-premise installations and cloud-based hosted deployments by Enabling Technologies.

"Since we first began working with IntelePeer (News - Alert), we've been impressed with how quickly and seamlessly we've been able to deploy SIP Trunking services integrated with our Microsoft UC solutions, while delivering secure, reliable high-quality connections. In fact, the quality and reliability of IntelePeer CoreCloud SIP Trunking has been so good that we are now using them for our own Lync deployment," said Enabling Technology President, Bill Vollerthum. "IntelePeer operates at business speed, turning on connections quickly, without requiring upfront costs and offering competitive rates, which is extremely attractive for our customers. As our business continues to see tremendous growth, we are committed to continuing the IntelePeer partnership and look forward to exploring new opportunities to enhance the UC experience."

"At IntelePeer, we've worked hard to ensure our SIP trunking services seamlessly enable the voice capabilities of Microsoft Lync unified communications," said Margaret Norton, IntelePeer General Manager, Enterprises. "Enabling Technologies' decision to depend on us as their exclusive SIP provider speaks to their trust in the quality of our services and serves as a testament to our joint success at delivering superior value to their UC customers."

IntelePeer provides a comprehensive suite of on-demand communications and SIP trunking services that are backed by deep communications expertise to ensure partners' Microsoft Lync deployments are successful. Recently, the company announced that Microsoft National Systems Integrator Catapult Systems is the latest to join the IntelePeer Partner Program.
