Awards

The annual CRN Tech Innovators award competition recognizes best-of-breed providers in the technology sector across a comprehensive range of categories.

TMC’s CUSTOMER magazine recognized CoreNexa WFM for its “ability to help contact centers deliver world-class customer experiences.”

Rich Tehrani, TMC’s chief executive officer and group editor-in-chief, said that CoreDial’s portfolio of hosted business communications services have helped the company emerge as one of the leaders in delivering hosted VoIP services.

CoreDial was selected for TMC's prestigious Friend of the Channel award based on their “exemplary channel programs, and for going the extra mile when it comes to supporting their partners.”

TMC is proud to showcase innovative solutions that allow businesses to become more productive, efficient, and competitive. CoreDial has consistently been a leader in this endeavor by developing solutions that help companies transform their operations,” said Rich Tehrani, chief executive officer of TMC.

The list recognizes leaders who "drive the channel agenda and evangelize the importance of channel partnerships” through a combination of professional achievements, high standards and ethics, and dedication to the Partner community

After extensive research into partner experiences, service and support, pricing, operational efficiency, and human capital, Frost & Sullivan determined that CoreDial’s programs and successes were superior among private label UCaaS providers.

“CoreDial continues to impress TMC’s editors with both the ingenuity of its product portfolio and the channel-focused nature of its programs,” said Rich Tehrani, CEO at TMC.

CoreDial was selected for our positive work environment, which encourages employees to seek out opportunities for both personal and professional growth, as well as our commitment to innovation and new ideas.

Honorees were selected by the editors of Channel Partners, who identified industry executives that have demonstrated “vision, innovation, and advocacy of the indirect channel during a time of transition and convergence.”

CoreNexa Contact Center was singled out for its ability to help CoreDial partners satisfy evolving customer requirements by providing a compelling solution that improves business productivity through sophisticated customer engagement functionalities.

Criteria for making the Coolest Cloud Computing Companies list included areas such as “creativity and innovation in product development, the quality of their services and partner programs, and their demonstrated ability to help customers.”

“We applaud the innovative enhancements of CoreDial’s CoreNexa solution, which allows partners to deliver compelling business communications services to a sophisticated marketplace,” said Rich Tehrani, CEO at TMC.

CoreDial’s SwitchConnex platform received the 2017 Unified Communications Product of the Year Award from TMC for demonstrating ingenuity and excellence, and providing Partners with an integrated set of tools to deliver UCaaS solutions to Partners.

The TMC Labs Innovation Awards honor products that demonstrate raw innovation, unique features, and significant contributions toward improving unified communications technology.

“The real foundation of this success is our channel partners,” said Alan Rihm, CEO at CoreDial, “and how they’re experiencing faster times to market, ability to deliver measurable value to their customers, earning margins of up to 65 percent.”

“Our success is directly attributed to the hard work and dedication of our employees,” said Alan Rihm, CEO of CoreDial, “which is why we are committed to creating an environment where employees feel inspired, valued and empowered.”
