In order to serve as a trusted advisor to our clients, we need to stay up to speed with the latest IT trends and solutions. To achieve that, our team of IT experts attends weekly training sessions conducted by various IT solution providers. Based on our extensive experience and sales volume with the suppliers, we receive exclusive, direct and usually in person training from these vendors. Our Tech Talks blog series offers a snapshot of these educational sessions.
Our team recently met with a leading hosted VoIP, broadband services, unified communications, and cloud PBX provider to discuss their solutions and overall industry trends. Cloud-based solutions and services have become extremely popular in recent years, and our partner shared these key statistics with us to provide a snapshot of what’s happening in that market.
