Microsoft's Advanced Specialization series are the top step above and beyond Gold Productivity Competencies and allow partners to differentiate their organisations and capabilities further with their customers, prospects and alliance partners, the cloud platform said.
"Microsoft Teams Calling is clearly set to play a central role in the future of enterprise telecommunications, enabling organisations to truly unify their global communications in the cloud for a modern and agile workplace, while also eliminating cost and resource-intensive legacy telephony systems,” said LoopUp’s co-chief executive Steve Flavell.
“At LoopUp, our platform is particularly differentiated for larger, relatively international Teams Calling deployments, and this badge of honour from Microsoft sums up one key element of our value proposition: our deep Microsoft voice expertise and experience to partner with our customers on their journeys from disparate, premises-based telephony to a single, consistently-managed global cloud implementation,” he continued.
“Combined with our market-leading regulatory coverage where we are set to be a licensed telecommunications service provider in more than 60 countries by the end of 2021, our 18 tier-1 carrier relationships, and differentiated PerfectBundle pricing, we look forward to continuing our growth in this large and exciting market."
