Atlanta, GA, September 13, 2009 -- "We are proud to receive this recognition from Cisco,” said Rolf Versluis, Chief Executive Officer of Adcap Network Systems. "Adcap's technical, sales, and project management teams have worked hard for many years to attain the level of capability required by Cisco for this specialization. I also appreciate our wonderful clients for giving us the privilege of being a supplier to them; we will continue to improve our capabilities to provide an even higher level of service to them in the future.”
"To help turn the promise of unified communications into a strategic advantage, customers are demanding an enhanced set of skills and capabilities from channel partners,” said Richard McLeod, director of unified communications for worldwide channels at Cisco. Adcap Network Systems’ investment in the Master Unified Communications Specialization ranks them among the industry’s elite.”
To achieve the Master Unified Communications Specialization, resale channel partners must first attain the Advanced Unified Communications Specialization. Partners must then meet stringent requirements that demonstrate their master-level sales, technical, and services capabilities. Furthermore, master specialized partners must possess a number of Cisco and industry-standard technical certification requirements; provide customer references that document Cisco-prescribed design and deployment capabilities; and show evidence that they have the infrastructure to support a full menu of Lifecycle Services offerings and capabilities.
Adcap Network Systems announced today it has achieved the Master Unified Communications Specialization from Cisco®.
This specialization recognizes Adcap Network Systems as having fulfilled the training requirements and program prerequisites to sell deploy and support highly sophisticated applications-based Cisco Unified Communications solutions.
The Cisco Resale Channel Program provides partners with the training required to build sales, technical and Cisco Lifecycle Services skills, and then validates their skills through a third-party audit. Cisco resale partner certifications—Select, Premier, Silver and Gold—represent an increasing breadth of skills across key technologies and a partner’s ability to deliver integrated networking solutions. Cisco resale partner specializations— SMB, Express, Advanced and Master—reflect an increasing depth of sales, technical and service expertise in particular technologies. Cisco master specializations provide Adcap Network Systems access to comprehensive sales, technical, and lifecycle services training and support available from Cisco.
