TSG announces Telecoms Expansion with Mitel
TSG has recently announced plans to expand its product portfolio to include a full range of telecoms solutions for small and medium sized businesses. This move will see TSG embrace the convergence of technology and telecoms and firmly position the company as a one-stop, fully integrated technology and communications business.
To date, the TSG offering has primarily focussed on providing a total IT support solution, offering both business software and IT infrastructure support. As the convergence of IT and Telecoms continues to gather pace, TSG is now expanding the solutions offered to incorporate a full range of telecoms products and services.
This move is the direct result of the strategic acquisition last year of IT consultancy and support company Croft Technology, which enabled the launch by TSG of specialist division, TSG Enterprise Solutions. The skills and expertise of this division, working in partnership with Mitel, a leading provider of Unified Communications software solutions will allow a roll-out of TSG telecoms products and services to SMEs throughout the UK.
All TSG customers can now take advantage of significant cost savings on both line rentals and call charges and have access to expert advice and support on telecoms infrastructure.
Steve Cox, Chief Technology Officer, TSG comments,
“At TSG, we continually strive to offer the best value products and highest level of service to our customers. With the growing convergence of telecoms and IT services there is now no need for businesses to have to deal with multiple suppliers. A one stop technology service really can exist and we’re excited to offer our customers a total technology, business application and telecoms solution. The launch of the TSG Enterprise Solutions division last year was a strategic move and has equipped the business with the technical resources and capabilities required to add telecoms to our product portfolio. We are now actively recruiting for additional technical and sales staff and also looking at future acquisitions with the aim of being the number one SME provider of Technology solutions. We are looking forward to partnering with Mitel on our telecoms solutions and firmly believe that this partnership will enhance the overall benefits that TSG can deliver to businesses throughout the UK.”
Robert Hutton, SME sales director, Mitel Corporation comments
“We are delighted to have been chosen as TSG’s telecoms partner and look forward to helping deliver telecoms UC solutions to TSG customers throughout the UK. Following the launch of the TSG Enterprise Solutions division last year we have already started to see increased investment in the Mitel product set. With the expansion of the TSG product portfolio to include a full range of telecoms solutions, UK SMEs will now have a fantastic opportunity to deal with a single provider for all their technology requirements and Mitel are excited to be involved.”
