Node4 has extended its strategic partnership with NEC by becoming a UNIVERGE 3C communications solution partner in the UK. Node4 is also now a key Service Partner, providing support for broader deployments of UNIVERGE 3C by other resellers. NEC’s UNIVERGE 3C UC&C (UC and Collaboration) platform is available from Node4 now.

UNIVERGE 3C can be delivered to any device - smartphone, tablet, PC, Mac or on a deskphone - as a self-sufficient standalone VoIP solution. UNIVERGE 3C delivers a comprehensive suite of functionality that can be used anywhere, anytime - providing the necessary agility for today’s dynamic work environment - and enables total control over how, when and where users choose to be reached. UNIVERGE 3C can support the needs of SMEs and large enterprises, supporting anything from 40-50 users to over 10,000.


Node4’s new role as key service partner for UNIVERGE 3C is the latest stage of the successful long-term relationship between Node4 and NEC. Both companies will be demonstrating the power of UNIVERGE 3C at IP Expo at Earls Court, London, 16th-17th October.

Both companies will also be giving live demonstrations of UNIVERGE 3C on stands E20 (NEC) and G59 (Node4).


Jim Eagers, Marketing Manager at NEC, commented: “UNIVERGE 3C is a proven solution that can deliver significant value to businesses of all sizes as ‘Generation C’ employees increasingly demand technology that helps them to work flexibly, how they want and where they want. To support our sales push in the UK we needed a strong, well-established partner, well attuned to delivering a product like UNIVERGE 3C. We have had an extremely successful relationship with Node4, and its blend of experience and expertise means it is perfectly placed to support the broad roll out of UNIVERGE 3C in the UK.”
