RingCentral, a provider of cloud communications, collaboration, and contact center solutions, and Westcon, a value-added technology distributor, have partnered to bring its cloud communications solutions to channel partners.
Westcon will act as a master agent for RingCentral initially in the United Kingdom and Ireland.
"Demand for enterprise-grade cloud communications solutions grows daily, and we are continually investing in market-leading technologies that help our partners to build out cloud-based aspects of their portfolio," said Rene Klein, senior vice president of Westcon Europe, in a statement. "That is why we've made the strategic decision to make RingCentral our lead partner in our launch of a new master agency model for Europe. We're excited to be pioneering this new approach as a significant addition to our existing channel partner model."
"Master agents like Westcon are instrumental in arming their partners with the best solutions on the market so they can help their customers make the best possible choice for their business," said Zane Long, senior vice president of global channel sales at RingCentral, in a statement. "We're thrilled to be their lead partner as we work together to enable their channel community with the leading solution in UCaaS."
