UCaaS Intelligent SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) Trunking services have been certified as compatible with the

The certification gives Lync platform administrators the confidence and peace of mind that Masergy's service is fully interoperable with Lync and follows its best practice guidelines. "Companies who deploy Microsoft Lync make a significant investment and should not settle for anything less than a first rate certified SIP trunking service provider," said Dean Manzoori, VP of Product Management - UCaaS, Masergy. "We're proud that our SIP services have been independently certified to ensure a superior customer service experience, interoperability, and support for Lync deployments." According to Infonetics Research's
