PlanetOne Named Masergy’s Top 2016 Partner

PlanetOne Communications  has been recognized as Masergy’s top-performing growth partner in 2016.

This also marks the fifth year in a row PlanetOne has earned Platinum Partner status from the company.

“PlanetOne outperformed all existing Gold and Platinum Masergy partners to earn the title of Platinum Growth Partner of the Year,” said Chuck Ward, vice president of the global channel at Masergy. “Our expanded networking, security and UC portfolio opened the playing field for Masergy and PlanetOne channel partners, resulting in record growth and recurring revenues. Our relationship with PlanetOne is a money-maker for agents and MSPs, and we applaud the team’s commitment to our mutual success.”
