London, United Kingdom: 27th January 2021 – Nuvola Distribution, a leading Technology and Services Distributor, announces it has been appointed by 8×8, an integrated cloud communications platform provider, as a Distributor for the complete 8×8 product portfolio throughout the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland.
Nuvola Distribution’s signing of 8×8 further accelerates Nuvola’s growth and development strategy within the technology distribution channel. With already a stable of leading global ICT vendors, the 8×8 addition will further solidify Nuvola’s success in delivering significant growth to the business and expanding its professional services of both branded and white-labelled engineering services to the technology channel.
8×8 is a global integrated cloud communications platform provider and nine time Gartner UCaaS Magic Quadrant leader. As an award-winning software-as-a-service vendor with a ‘channel first’ strategy, 8×8 is focused on the recruitment of value-added reseller (VAR) partners across Europe.
Michael Lloyd, Managing Director, Nuvola Distribution says, ‘8×8 is a perfect addition to our wholesale portfolio, offering our partners a true enterprise-class cloud communications and contact centre solution. 8×8 has a very comprehensive partner programme, which allows VARs to position a product that, via a wholesale agreement, perhaps they couldn’t get in the past. Nuvola can offer the complete wrap around service to these partners, including the professional services which initially they may feel they don’t want to invest in training but want to own the project from start to finish from day one.’
“With the addition of Nuvola to our distribution partner community, we remain focused on working closely with the channel, with our efforts invested in supporting the needs of our end-users, VARs, and distribution. Nuvola’s ability to act as a ‘hybrid’ distributor in delivering products through the traditional approach, while providing engineering and technical support and a broad range of professional services is impressive. We look forward to partnering with the team and joint successes,” shares Keith Jackson, Regional Vice President, Channel Sales EMEA at 8×8.
‘Currently global markets are under an immense strain; however, demand for cloud solutions that are comprehensive for end-users is imperative, with the 8×8 integrated cloud communications and contact centre solution, the 8×8 portfolio combined with Nuvola’s approach, can offer VARs a far-superior proposition than many of our cohorts in distribution. With this approach, we offer all parties an unequalled distributor experience,’ states Michael Lloyd, MD, Nuvola Distribution.
