From ensuring their technology is working at maximum performance to monitoring gateways that may reveal if the software is over or under-licensed, this new offering makes managing communications systems including patch management for our clients simpler and more cost effective.”

“Businesses rely on their Unified Communications technology to effectively function from day to day. Whether it’s through delivering high quality, reliable voice calls, equipping remote workers with the collaboration tools needed to be operational, or enhancing customer interactions in the contact center, Altura Sentinel Edge Cloud allows us to give our customers peace of mind around their UC system and ensures it is performing at the highest Quality of Service,” states Greg McClendon, Director of NOC Services at Altura.
