JERICHO, NY – July 31, 2017 – Nectar Services Corp., the leader in the development and deployment of proactive network monitoring and performance management software for the Unified Communications (UC) industry, today announced that it has partnered with ScanSource Catalyst, a leading global provider of technology products and solutions, to deliver Nectar’s industry-leading communications solutions to ScanSource’s managed service providers and resellers in North America.
“The UC landscape is continually evolving whether it be an on-premise, cloud or hybrid environment. It is imperative that we’re able to support any type of network that our customers are serving. Nectar is a leader in providing UC network performance management solutions,” said Ansley Hoke, vice president of merchandising, ScanSource Catalyst. “With Nectar’s UC solutions and extensive education-based partner program, resellers are able to scale and support the enterprise UC needs of their customers by offering a full portfolio of UC network monitoring and performance management tools.”
Nectar provides solutions that cover the entire unified communications lifecycle, including planning and deployment, network assessment, monitoring, reporting and root-cause diagnostics, and overall performance management. Nectar’s flagship product, Unified Communications Management Platform (UCMP), as well as Evolution, will both be available through ScanSource. Nectar’s UCMP improves visibility and service delivery across integrated voice, video and data application solutions by providing unique and critical performance information.
Nectar’s award-winning Evolution is the first software product of its kind to provide unified Quality of Service (QoS) policy automation for Cisco UC environments, as well as multi-vendor deployments, which include other UC platforms such as Microsoft Skype for Business and other third-party ecosystem applications. An industry first, Evolution integrates with the Cisco Digital Network Architecture (DNA) to automate QoS and verify best practices that were previously manually implemented.
“As a leading provider of communications solutions, ScanSource is experienced in what it takes to successfully manage a UC network. It is our goal to provide the continued support and education through our partner program to ensure that our partners are equipped with the necessary tools and resources to meet all of their customers’ UC networking needs,” said Chris Joe, SVP of global sales at Nectar. “We look forward to a long partnership with ScanSource as they continue to deliver best-in-class UC services to their growing global customer base.”
