Sutus channel maintaining swift growth

Seven more partners for award-winning office-in-a-box vendor

May 8, 2008, Vancouver, B.C. – Sutus Inc., the company behind Business Central, a unique all-in-one appliance that provides Small Businesses with a fully integrated data, networking and telephony solution,  today announced  further significant channel partner growth with new partnerships that include Digital Communications Corp., Interactive Living, Metro Communications, DGT Communications, Native Technology Solutions, CTC and Innovedia.

Sutus has signed up more than 60 Channel partnerships across North America since launching its flagship product – the Sutus Business Central ™ – in Q4 of 2007. The company has also won a string of awards in the same period, including: Internet Telephony magazine’s 2007 Product of the Year award, 2008 IT Expo – Best of Show Award, VON Innovators award and Unified Communications Magazine Product of the Year award. 

The Sutus Business Central ™ has been developed specifically for businesses of up to 25 employees and comprises a wide array of advanced data and networking functions such as: file server, email server, router, firewall, wireless access point, VPN remote access server, automated backups, and a business-class phone system with the ability to simultaneously support both standard phone line and VoIP connections.

The Business Central is also a gateway for hosted services and so opens the doors for the Channel to develop additional recurring revenue streams in the $3.5 billion telephony, network and productivity sector of the small business market.  In addition, the device has extensive remote management and support features that dramatically lower customer support costs and reduce the need for costly onsite visits by support technicians.

‘Market awareness of our “all-in-one” solution is developing and the demand growing as the Channel moves away from selling piece-meal telephony, data and networking solutions,’ commented Shawn Chute, EVP of Sutus.  ‘Resellers and national providers alike, are attracted to our ability to deliver a highly profitable, integrated product with national help desk support and an end-to-end communications bundle that offers significant monthly recurring revenue.’
