[Asterisk-Users] Linksys SPA-9000

[Cory Andrews]

Kerry - we certainly have the ability to match any pricing you are 
receiving from Atacomm, we offer discounted VAR pricing but you need to 
have an account set up with an inside sales rep, and I can facilitate 
that.  We also offer RMA support and firmware for the duration of 
manufacturer warranty on all the products we sell, whereas Atacomm only 
offers a 30 day warranty.

We will be offering the SPA-9000, and are looking to contract with a few 
SP's, so we can upsell voicemail provisioning in conjunction with the 
units.  We have the ability, but not the desire, to host the VM 
internally, as we are not a service provider, and don't want the 
potential headaches that come along with that.  We may simply decide to 
act as a fulfillment and marketing agent for an SP, or group of SP's, 
and when we sell the SPA-9000, we are selling it on your behalf.  We 
will likely offer pre-provisionment of the unit for customers that want 
that, and many customers don't want to deal with configuring the system 
even though it is fairly straightforward. 

We could probably set up some automated provisioning setup, so that you 
could remotely provision the SPA-9000 to the clients spec, and then we 
package and ship it.  We can also do the provisionment in house, we 
provide outsourced SIP device provisionment and fulfillment for a wide 
variety of VOIP service providers, including DeltaThree, iConnectHere, 
Broadvoice, and hopefully soon, Vonage.

We have a web based form where a client can outline how they want their 
autoattendant(s), extensions and other options configured.  We have 
voice talent for prompts, or clients can provide their own.  We offer a 
wide spectrum of value adds, including leasing and finance options, 
because as you know there is not a ton of margin in this hardware.

If you have some time to chat later this week, I am anxious to see how 
SP's foresee pricing the voicemail service for the SPA-9000, on a "per 
seat" model, or a "per pbx" model.

Let me know a convenient time to reach you.  We are certainly looking 
for strong partnerships and we bring a lot to the table, with sales 
approaching $50MM and aggregating, on average, around 2200 new customers 
per month over the past year.

Thanks for the email!

Regards,
