8x8 has appointed a new channel boss to drive the adoption of its combined UC-CC offering globally.
Lisa Del Real joins from RingCentral, where she had been Vice President of Strategic Partnerships.
Ken Berryman, Chief Sales Officer at 8x8, said:
“The channel is playing an instrumental role in guiding organizations as they move off legacy, on-premises communications and customer engagement systems to empower a dynamic and hybrid workforce.
“Lisa’s extensive experience driving and growing successful global channel programs will allow us to accelerate adoption for our industry-leading integrated cloud unified communications and contact centre solution”
Del Real spent more than 10 years at RingCentral in various channel-focused roles, according to her LinkedIn profile.
She said: “A strong majority of the channel view selling a single-vendor, integrated UCaaS and CCaaS solution as a differentiated advantage versus multi-vendor point solutions.
"8x8 is perfectly positioned to provide partners and their customers with truly ground-breaking products and services with the 8x8 XCaaS solution.
