From Silo to Superstar: Expand Your Horizons as a Universal IP Technology Partner

Partners: Break Free From Silo Mentality & Embrace New Opportunities

When I started working with channel partners years ago, one interesting and unique phenomena was that partners rarely ventured outside their technical comfort zones. Telephony partners seldom deployed surveillance solutions and security partners did not seek telephony opportunities. In short, partners tend to stay in their lane. However, with changes in customers’ expectations, converging IP technologies, fierce competition, and perhaps more importantly, companies like ABPTech simplifying deployment, maintenance, and support of multiple technologies, the traditional stovepipe mentality is rapidly shifting. As I stated in a previous post, customer and product diversification is a fundamental part of business survival

 

 

Break Free From Silo Mentality & Embrace New Opportunities

 

Stand Out: Become a Universal IP Technology Partner

 

Many telephony partners tell us they see competition increasing from many angles including direct to end user marketing by cloud solutions. To be able to present yourself as a universal IP Technology partner that can help your standing with customers as you can help with a wider range of their needs. As a more universal solution provider you stand out and will be seen as a more valuable partner than a service offering only a single solution.

At ABP we understand partners' apprehension and the challenges of breaking out of silo mentality so we developed IPTECHVIEW SURVEILLANCE and IPTECHVIEW SYSTEM to help partners capitalize on the synergize between the multiple IP networking specialties and disciplines of Voice and Video, IP telephony and surveillance without requiring them to stray too far outside of their existing capabilities or competencies.

ABP's IPTECHVIEW SYSTEM: Remote Management & Proactive IT Services
 

On the other end of the spectrum, IPTECHVIEW SYSTEM offers a single pane of glass approach to remotely managing and monitoring client endpoints and provide proactive IT services versus a break/fix model. Combined with ABP provisioning services, surveillance-focused partners can now expand into telephony with an on-premise or cloud-based approach, best in class end-point devices, and advanced communication applications like unified messaging which integrates voicemail, email, text, and unified communications. 

 

Surveillance Partners: Expand with ABP's Telephony Solutions

One of the easiest first steps is to add our video intercoms to your customers setup and at the same time start investigating your customers video surveillance solution. Does their solution have an integration to the alarm system so owners and managers can see in seconds what's going on? Almost every business has an alarm system but ALMOST NONE are integrated to their video surveillance. Most video surveillance is still on premise based. What if you could improve on all these topics with an easy to deploy cloud based solution meant for technology partners like you?

As always, ABP is here to support you. For partners interested in getting into surveillance, I highly recommend checking out IPTECHVIEW SURVEILLANCE, getting a demo and then purchasing an inexpensive starter kit to deploy in your own office. Moreover, I would also suggest taking advantage of the demo kit for Fanvil video door stations and also new phone models with video to see the door station offered by several telephony vendors. You will get free pre-sales help and tech support on IPTECHVIEW to new partners to help you in your transition to becoming a versatile IPTECHPARTNER™ on the IPTECHVIEW platform.
