RingCentral has named ConvergeOne a platinum partner.
The UCaaS provider will offer exclusive training and support to the IT services provider, which will function as a “strategic” partner and sell RingCentral’s cloud communications, collaboration and contact center products.
John Lyons, ConvergeOne’s field organization president, said his company has attained a net promoter score (NPS) of 70. He said ConvergeOne’s cloud and managed services fit well with RingCentral’s UC and collaboration technologies.
“We are delighted to continue to build upon our strategic partnership with RingCentral by joining its Platinum Partner Program,” Lyons said.
Congratulations, @Converge_One on being accepted into the exclusive @RingCentral Partner Program! We couldn’t win in the #cloud without partners like you! https://t.co/FxI3mTctjm
