Integrator Logicalis has achieved a Cisco Powered designation in recognition of its unified communications managed service skills.
The designation reflects the Slough-based VAR's ability to deploy and manage Cisco Powered Business Communication and Cisco Powered Managed Unified Contact Centre services on a global scale. The Powered designation is intended to recognise VARs' managed services skills and offers them resources to formulate and market their managed services offering.
Logicalis' UK managing director Tom Kelly said: "As businesses turn to managed services to secure operational continuity and stabilise IT expenditure, suppliers are under increasing competition to demonstrate their ability to deliver enterprise-class services. The recognition from Cisco is a clear endorsement of our expertise and highlights in particular our international capabilities.”
