G12 Communications, CCG Telecom Partner for Microsoft Lync With Voice

G12 Communications and CCG Telecom are working together to provide Microsoft Lync with Enterprise Voice to businesses running Office 365.

Through the partnership, CCG will integrate Audiocodes One Box 365 on-premise with G12’s Lync Certified SIP Trunking solution to help customers lower their unified communications (UC) services costs.

“Customers looking to deploy a Lync Voice solution know they are working with certified partners that can bring the entire end-to-end Lync voice solution to their organization,” G12 CEO Rick Coma told Talkin’ Cloud.

Coma also said the partnership creates a cloud-based solution that ensures both G12 and CCG customers can save money, become more productive and focus on revenue-generating activities.

Additionally, Kevin Yorio, CCG’s principal, said he believes the new partnership is “a game changer” for both companies and could help G12 and CCG customers lower the total cost of ownership (TCO) for their UC services by up to 70 percent.

G12 provides cloud-based Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) services globally, while CCG offers VoIP hardware technology for enterprises, service providers, systems integrators, solution providers, government entities and schools.

Both companies, meanwhile, could capitalize on a VoIP services market that is expected to grow over the next several years.

Infonetics is predicting strong worldwide growth in VoIP services revenues through 2018, when sector revenues could reach $88 billion.
