Logicalis has become the fourth UK reseller to gain Cisco’s top level Master certification for unified communications (UC).

Cisco unveiled the badge in 2006 as a way to differentiate elite partners across its portfolio of Advanced Technologies (ATs).

Touchbase was the first UK outfit to gain Master UC in July 2007 and has since been joined by 2e2, Didata and now Logicalis. Currently, no UK partners have gained Cisco’s other Master badge around security.

Tom Kelly, managing director of Logicalis UK, said: “With Cisco’s partnership, we stand at the forefront of the UC market and this endorsement has further distinguished Logicalis as an elite provider of high-level, value-add solutions and services for our customers.”

Bernadette Wightman, Cisco UK and Ireland channels director explains: “Logicalis has made a significant investment in becoming a Master partner, underpinning their commitment to providing consistent high-sales growth and value-added services using the full portfolio of Cisco solutions.”
