GEC NEWS WIREZaker Trading chose a cost-effective and easy-to-use converged communications and network solution from ALE for its new headquarters in Dubai Investment Park in the UAE.
Through system integrator Al Futtaim Technologies, Zaker deployed a mix of Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise networking and unified communications products and solutions, including the Alcatel-Lucent OmniAccess 5850 Enterprise Services Router, OmniPCX Enterprise Communication Server, OmniSwitch LAN switches and OmniAccess wireless LAN access points.
Charles Jesudason, Group General Manager at Zaker Trading said, “The architecture in our previous office was old, expensive to maintain and limited us from basic IT services like easy communication between our offices. From our past experience with Al Futtaim Technologies and Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise’s great reputation in the industry, we chose a converged communications and network solution that met our specific needs and proved to be cost-effective.”
Baher Ezzat, Regional Director Middle East, ALE said, “We were part of a rigorous RFQ where vendors pitched how their products and solutions would be beneficial to Zaker. Working closely with our partner Al Futtaim Technologies, our converged communications and network solution was chosen as it met Zaker’s growing IT needs and infrastructure requirements, while also supporting its future growth.”
