Star Telecom Signs Agreement to Offer Genesys Customer Experience Solutions

Agreement adds cloud and on-premises omnichannel contact center platforms to Star Telecom's portfolio

TORONTO, Dec. 12, 2018 /PRNewswire/ - Star Telecom, www.startelecom.ca Canada's only telecommunications provider focused exclusively on contact centres, has signed a reseller agreement with Genesys® (www.genesys.com), the global leader in omnichannel customer experience and contact centre solutions. The agreement enables Star Telecom to market, sell and support Genesys PureConnect(TM) and Genesys PureCloud® platforms.

Star Telecom is a Toronto-based telecommunications services and solutions provider for contact centres, providing services such as SIP Trunking, Cloud Contact Centre, Call Recording Cloud PBX and SMS. Through this agreement, businesses can deploy the PureConnect and PureCloud platforms as a complementary component of the Star Telecom portfolio or as an independent solution.

Star Telecom's deep understanding and focus on contact centre enables it to provide closely integrated services which tie into Genesys PureConnect and PureCloud. This partnership enables Star Telecom to offer its customers a single, seamlessly integrated cloud or on-premises platform from Genesys instead of a set of solutions from different providers. This makes implementation and management of these solutions easier to deploy and manage.

"Combining a full-service provider like Star Telecom for telecommunications and SMS services with a leading edge contact centre solution from Genesys ensures joint customers a smooth, efficient implementation and single source for all services," said Ivan Kovacevic, Vice President of Client Services for Star Telecom.

"With two decades of experience delivering telecommunications services and solutions for contact centres and expertise in project managing complex implementations, Star Telecom has a history of helping create sustainable competitive advantages for businesses," said Paul Rolfe, Vice President of Global Partners and Alliances for Genesys. "This, combined with its deep technical expertise and contact centre knowledge, ensures our joint customers will receive maximum return on investment."
