ShoreGroup Achieves Advanced Unified Communications Specialization from Cisco Systems
ShoreGroup recognized for expertise in designing, installing and supporting advanced Cisco Unified Communications solutions.
New York, NY (PRWEB) November 16, 2006 -- ShoreGroup, Inc., a leading converged network solutions and management provider, today announced that it has earned the Advanced Unified Communications Specialization from Cisco® Systems. The Advanced Unified Communication Specialization recognizes ShoreGroup's ability to sell, design, install and support complex, systems-level IP-based communications solutions, and reinforces ShoreGroup's commitment to providing customers with strategic, value-added technology and service solutions across multiple sites and geographies. The expertise achieved through formalized specializations is also fully leveraged to ensure the effectiveness of ShoreGroup's CaseSentry Systems Management and ShorePatrol Operational Support Service solutions, which empower customers to successfully manage today's converged systems and networks. Prior to earning this new certification, ShoreGroup held Cisco's IP Communications Specialization.
"IP-based unified communications applications are key components in a 21st century business environment. Such solutions no longer have to be justified. They have proven themselves by helping organizations of all shapes and sizes improve employee mobility, business continuity and productivity," said Robert Ditta, Executive Vice President of ShoreGroup. "By combining our engineering and integration knowledge, ShoreGroup provides customers with flexible, responsive and secure business operations using unified communications and associated technologies."
To obtain this specialization, ShoreGroup participated in a comprehensive Cisco assessment that validated the company's competency in such areas as design development, communications planning, circuit analysis, project planning, acceptance testing, end-user training, and ongoing systems support. The specialization also requires ShoreGroup to maintain an advanced unified communications equipment lab for customer configuration testing and employee education. "Cisco's Advanced Unified Communications Specialization validates our ability to provide our customers with not just individual product solutions, but with a comprehensive, end-to-end communications solution that unifies their business operations," added Ditta.
In addition to the Cisco Advanced Unified Communications Specialization, ShoreGroup holds specializations in Advanced Wireless LAN and VPN Security. The company is also a Cisco Systems Advanced Technology Provider for Unified Contact Center (ATP-UCC), and a member of Cisco's Partner Voice Support Offering (PVSO) program.
