IntelePeers SIP Trunking Now Microsoft-Qualified

Cloud communications provider IntelePeer Inc.s SIP trunking services now are qualified to run with Microsoft Office Communications Online, part of Microsoft Online Services.

IntelePeers SIP trunking product had to pass a rigorous certification process done by an independent testing organization. More than 25 tests were conducted that covered inbound and outbound SIP trunking connection scenarios, virtual direct-internal-dialing calls and complex dial plans.

Microsoft Online Services are delivered through a subscription, giving businesses messaging and collaboration tools without the need to maintain hardware or software. Companies also can use them in a private-cloud deployment.

“IntelePeer is helping customers embrace cloud-based services by providing high-quality SIP trunking connections that enhance the multimodal communications capabilities within Microsoft Online Services,” said Yancey Smith, Microsofts director of Lync product management.

IntelePeer sells through channel partners including VARs.
