CounterPath Announces Reseller Agreement with Global Network Equipment Provider
Vancouver, BC, Canada — January 20, 2015
CounterPath Corporation (NASDAQ: CPAH) (TSX: CCV), a developer of award-winning over-the-top (OTT) Unified Communications solutions for enterprises and operators, today announced it has signed a reseller agreement with a leading network equipment provider. Under the terms of the agreement, this partner plans to resell CounterPath’s desktop and mobile OTT communications solutions to enterprises in numerous verticals including financial services, healthcare, government, industrials and education.
According to Gartner, total spending on UC-ready infrastructure will grow to $17.0 billion in 2016 as businesses and enterprises roll out next-generation IP communication solutions to increase employee productivity and reduce costs. With this, businesses and enterprises require advanced UC solutions, such as CounterPath’s Bria clients and Stretto PlatformTM, which can be deployed as a highly secure and flexible overlay to their underlying IT infrastructure or within existing Mobile Device Management (MDM) environments.
“Enterprises are looking for market proven Unified Communications solutions that they can confidently install throughout their entire operation,” said Donovan Jones, President and Chief Executive Officer of CounterPath. “We have deployed our Bria and Stretto-powered Enterprise OTT solutions with some of the largest and most demanding businesses, OEMs and operators in the world. Through this new partnership, we have already established commercial relationships with large enterprises looking to deploy UC solutions across their organization to increase employee productivity and data security, maximize efficiencies through data collection and analytics, and simplify IT administration.”
