Arkadin has announced the acquisition of consulting and hosting service provider implement.com. With this acquisition, Arkadin will benefit from honed unified communications expertise and an advanced hosted collaboration service platform to accelerate its growth in Cloud-based enterprise collaboration.
"We are thrilled to see Arkadin and implement.com combine their offerings to enhance UCaaS for customers. Together, they will provide the latest Microsoft hosted collaboration solutions in the way businesses consume services today. The UCaaS segment is poised for rapid growth in the next few years, and we are excited about the offers these two companies together will bring to the market globally," said Marco Limena, Vice-President, WW Hosting Service Providers, Microsoft.
Arkadin will offer Chinook Communications' previous multi-tenant UCaaS service bundles immediately to clients in North America under the Arkadin Total Connect brand name. The packages include voice, Microsoft Exchange, Lync, and SharePoint. Availability will follow in a phased rollout in other global regions. Arkadin will enhance these offers with private cloud options in the next few months.
