Intermedia NexGen Voice

Known as a hosted Microsoft Exchange firm until it broke into the Unified Communications-as-a-Service business a handful of years ago, Intermedia is taking the voice sector by storm. Intermedia's voice business is growing at a 35 to 40 percent clip year-over-year. Eric Roach, global vice president of field channel sales and distribution, said partners involved in beta testing Intermedia's latest NexGen cloud voice solutions are highly enthusiastic about bringing them to market. Partners can almost immediately realize value with Intermedia's voice solutions, especially around services like phone configuration, network testing, and bundling voice with other services they already sell. To sweeten the deal, Intermedia said this week that it would give phones away for free through the end of September.
