Ingram Micro has added the availability of cloud data business phone systems from Fonality, an innovative provider of unified communications as a service, to Ingram Micro resellers throughout North America, Europe, and Asia through the Ingram Micro Cloud Marketplace, the company said.
Fonality provides service with United States and Australian telephone numbers, and utilizing its unique Hybrid-Hosted® deployment model, in 97 other countries where customers can provide their own telephone network access.
Although businesses are moving increasingly more of their infrastructure to the cloud, most still have business phone systems designed to be owned and operated on premises, and don´t take advantage of the many options available in more modern unified communications systems.
Increasingly, companies are looking to move their phone system to the cloud while also taking advantage of new features such as company messaging and presence, dedicated conference calling, video collaboration and screen sharing, file sharing, and call center applications. This allows IT managers to outsource the headache of running their own phone system while also taking advantage of an easy-to-consume monthly service pricing model that scales with them as they grow and technology changes.
Fonality´s unique deployment options make it an ideal fit for Ingram Micro´s network of partners. Businesses can subscribe to Fonality´s service using either Fonality´s cloud or Hybrid-Hosted® model, depending upon their needs. Fonality´s voice-agnostic approach means even mixed implementations across international borders translates into new opportunities for partners.

That´s because Hybrid-Hosted means even customers in telecom contracts can take advantage of a hosted UC phone system while using existing phone circuits.
