Regional VAD FVC, has expanded its unified collaboration and convergence portfolio, after it signed a distribution agreement with Sagemcom, a maker of secure document exchange solutions with XMedius. The agreement covers XMediusFAX solution across the GCC countries, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Egypt and Anglophone Africa.
FVC said it will leverage its existing partnerships with Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise, Unify and Microsoft Lync, by offering XMediusFAX solutions as an add-on to voice and UC solutions.
K. S. Parag, managing director, FVC, said: “We are very pleased to complement our existing UC solutions with the addition of an IP-based fax solution. For compliance reasons, fax is still the only legal communication medium for certain key vertical sectors and Sagemcom is one of the worldwide top players in the Enterprise fax solutions space.”
The company is also looking for new partners in key vertical sectors such as healthcare, government, finance, education and legal to offer XMediusFAX as a stand-alone solution.
“Sagemcom has always been at the forefront of the secure document exchange industry. Our geographical presence and market position have witnessed sustained growth and today, with the expansion of our distribution network in Middle East & Africa, we have achieved yet another significant milestone,” said Gwilherm Demaret, sales director EMEA, Sagemcom.
The new addition to the portfolio will be supported by FVC’s team of pre-sales and support engineers from its UC and Convergence division, who will in turn be backed by Sagemcom’s team.
