Thursday, November 16, 2023
Agreement provides thousands of New York organizations a clear pathway to move from outdated and costly on-premises phone systems to the cloud and realize a more mobile, efficient, and productive way to work
SUNNYVALE, Calif., Nov. 8, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Intermedia Cloud Communications, a leading provider of intelligent cloud communications and collaboration solutions to businesses and the partners that serve them, today announced that it has been chosen as one of multiple vendors awarded the prestigious New York State Office of General Services (NYS OGS) Manufacturer Based Information Technology Umbrella Contract. The Intermedia solutions included within this agreement are the flagship components of its intelligent communications and collaboration platform: Intermedia Unite(®) and Intermedia Contact Center.
The centralized procurement agency for the State of New York, NYS OGS is responsible for managing approximately 1,500 contracts for commodities, services, and technology that are sought after by various New York government agencies, school districts, and nonprofit organizations. With the awarding of this contract to Intermedia, these organizations now have direct procurement access to a robust set of versatile, mobile, secure, and highly reliable communications, collaboration, productivity, and customer care solutions that would otherwise have remained unavailable within the confines of the State of New York's purchasing regulations. No vendor can work with these organizations without securing a working contract with NYS OGS.
With the world continuing to adopt remote and hybrid work models, the need to remain connected, collaborative, and provide responsive customer care from anywhere is more critical than ever. Unlike costly, inflexible, and hard-to-maintain legacy on-premises communications systems that limit where and how you can work, Intermedia's highly reliable, secure, and versatile cloud-based solutions are designed to go wherever work needs to happen - with the features found in traditional phone systems and so much more.
Named as the top-rated Unified Communications as a Service (UCaaS) platform and the Best Overall Business Voice-over-IP (VoIP) system by PC Magazine, Intermedia Unite is redefining what it means to be efficient, engaged, and productive from wherever with seamlessly integrated voice, video, chat, file sharing, communications archiving, and more, all available on one highly reliable, mobile, and secure platform. And for organizations of any size looking to provide a superior level of service for their constituents, Intermedia Contact Center is the solution that delivers more responsive and informed customer interactions by phone, email, and SMS, regardless of location.
"We are thrilled that Intermedia has been selected as one of the vendors awarded with a New York State OGS contract for our cloud-based unified communications and contact center solutions," said Chris Atha, Senior Vice President of Channel Sales at Intermedia. "Winning this contract to work with the State of New York was a stringent process and is a testament to our steadfast commitment to delivering reliable, state-of-the-art, and secure cloud communications services. We look forward to working with our partners to assist government agencies in meeting their communications needs, all while ensuring that their employees and constituents receive the tremendous service for which we are known."
Both Intermedia Unite and Intermedia Contact Center feature integrated Intermedia SPARK AI technology to drive even greater levels of efficiency and business insight and are backed by J.D. Power-certified technical support and 99.999% uptime service level agreements (SLAs).
