Masergy Communications has announced its Platinum and Gold partners for fiscal year 2016.

Masergy relies on partners for distribution of its unified communication as a service (UCaaS) and unified enterprise security (UES) solutions, which help customers transform rigid IT infrastructures into flexible and secure cloud services.

The Platinum and Gold partner status is based on sales performance for Fiscal Year 2015 which ended June 30. For the second year, top revenue-generating partners were Avant Communications for overall sales and Bridgepointe Technologies for UCaaS sales. Intelisys was the top partner in Unified Enterprise Security (UES) sales status.

Masergy also said that it has bowed partner certification on its UES solutions. The self-paced, online training program provides channel partners with information needed to fully understand the cybersecurity vulnerabilities that pose a threat to their customers’ data. Cyber security topics include:

  • Motivation and methods used by hackers
  • The limitations of current enterprise IT security strategies and products
  • Five top qualifying questions to profile potential customer accounts
  • Masergy’s unique approach to advanced threat detection

Intelisys has completed the UES Partner Certification, the company said, in addition to achieving top UES sales status.

Fiscal year 2016 Platinum Partners include:

“Masergy’s software defined network (SDN) platform, UES and UCaaS solutions continue to drive channel partner sales, as their customers are seeking an agile means to transform their businesses, upgrade IT infrastructures and manage growth,”said Chuck Ward, Masergy’s global channel VP. “We are proud to have expanded our programs to encompass cyber security certification as well as hybrid networking and cloud integration to boost partners’ opportunities.”
