The agreement with Outsourcery will enable PSU to deliver a hosted version of Microsoft LyncTM and further strengthen its service proposition to customers.
As a fully-integrated provider of IT managed services and a major reseller of Mitel products, the hosted “Unified Lync” solution from Outsourcery, will enhance PSU’s unified communications offering and the options available to customers that recognise the benefits of cloud-based solutions.
Commenting on the deal, Rob Deacon, PSU’s Professional Services Director said: “Microsoft LyncTM provides unquestionable benefits and this partnership will enable us to deliver a hosted solution based on proven results, as Outsourcery’s ability to consistently provide excellent service and support mirrors our very own high standards.”
Unified Lync offers a simple and effective way to transform business communications. Through a single, intuitive client Unified Lync offers instant messaging and presence; voice, video and web conferencing and PBX voice functionality – all delivered from the cloud on a flexible, configurable service model. Unified Lync integrates fully with other Microsoft applications, including Office and Exchange, meaning users can rapidly adopt the new technologies for the maximum benefits.

We have established a partnering relationship and look forward to supporting PSU in successfully taking its cloud-based solutions, like Unified Lync, to market.”
