NEW YORK, NY -- (Marketwired) -- 07/28/15 -- Fusion (NASDAQ: FSNN), a leading provider of cloud services, announced today that a major building technology company has chosen Fusion for its cloud connectivity and cloud communications solutions. The integrated Fusion solution links five of the company's locations, delivering improved cloud communications capability at reduced cost and providing direct access to the cloud to ensure quality of service. The company was seeking an alternative to its incumbent legacy carrier, and demanded service excellence, reliability, and cost efficiency. It was looking for a single, secure source for all of its communications needs to gain increased accountability and control.
The three year agreement, totaling approximately $300,000 in contract value, allowed the company to replace its high cost legacy connections with a feature-rich communications solution that supports the company's current and future growth requirements. The solution provides for shared capacity, which efficiently and dynamically distributes costs among all of the company's locations based on each facility's individual requirements at any given time of the day. The company found Fusion's bursting capability to be especially compelling as it allows the company to manage to peak periods without having to invest in costly capacity that might remain unused during slower usage periods. Another important reason for the company's confidence in the award-winning Fusion solution is its built-in business continuity, delivered through the Fusion cloud platform's advanced routing technology.
Russell P. Markman, President of Fusion's Business Services commented, "This leading provider of advanced building technology solutions delivers innovative energy, environment, monitoring, maintenance, and security services to buildings that demand outstanding service, accountability, and control. That's why we are so gratified that the company chose Fusion as its single source for an integrated communications solution, replacing an incumbent provider whose legacy products matched a legacy approach to service delivery. The company wanted a partner it could count on for 24x7x365 live customer care and the kind of proactive technical support that anticipates and solves problems before they can impact business. It was also important to the company to find a provider whose commitment to innovation matched its own, and we were delighted to respond with a future-proof solution that protects today's investment with solutions built to grow with it. There's nothing more important to us than earning our customers' confidence and trust every day, and we are pleased to have the opportunity to deliver a level of service that this valued customer can count on, now and in the future."
