Shimmer has close relationships with a range of premier voice and data suppliers who share our focus on quality in both the services they provide and the support they offer. We are proud to be a Senior Business Partner with THUS in the UK, a unique relationship which enables us to couple THUS and Demon products and services with our channel management skills.

Recent developments in Unified Communications have opened up opportunities in IP and Hosted Telephony. Having tried and tested many providers of IP Telephony, Shimmer recommends iHub for VoIP services.

While our preferred carrier is THUS, Shimmer is an independent voice and data solutions provider. Where the customer preference is for BT, we have the appropriate contracts and agreements in place to allow us deliver calls using the BT network.

“We’ve worked closely with Shimmer Telecom since 2005 when they were first appointed a senior business partner/distributor for Thus. We have always been impressed by their commitment to the channel model of business on which they focus. They share our commitment to customer service, and are fair and ethical partners. I have no hesitation in recommending them to channel businesses who wish to work with a credible partner that believes in doing the simple things right, and puts excellent service at the heart of their business.”

Duncan Wilkinson – Head of Wholesale Division, THUS Ltd (a Cable & Wireless company)

“2010 is set to see hosted VoIP increase dramatically, but with this comes the challenges of finding both the right product and the right supplier. With Nortel’s award winning CS2k at the heart of its core and a focus on supporting the channel the selection of the right wholesale partners is key to successful customer relationships and differentiating ourselves from the competition. Shimmer Telecom have shown they are responsive and proactive in understanding and managing their End Users' requirements for Hosted Voice and SIP Trunks and are clearly committed to providing a high level of customer service therefore making them ideally suited to iHub’s channel model. Shimmer Telecom is a valued partner and one of the first to be accredited with the iHub Premium Wholesale Partner status.”
