ICS, Telephony Division of GDC, Becomes an Allworx Authorized Partner

Hagerstown, Maryland – September 03, 2015

Information Technology Service Provider, Global Data Consultants, LLC (GDC), headquartered in Chambersburg, PA, announced today it is broadening its VoIP capabilities within its telephony division, Interstate Communication Services (ICS), by adding a new vendor partner, Allworx, to their suite of product offerings. Allworx is a wholly owned subsidiary of Windstream (NASDAQ: WIN).

GDC’s telephony division, ICS, offers a full line of IP-based technology solutions where voice and data converge over a single network, enabling businesses to achieve network efficiency and help to streamline office management. The addition of Allworx to the telephony division demonstrates GDC’s ability to meet the evolving communication needs in today’s dynamic business environment.

“We are excited about our partnership with Allworx,” said Brent Bailey, Telephony Division General Manager. “The addition of Allworx products to our suite of unified communications and IT support services will enable us to provide additional value to our clients. When ICS joined forces with the GDC family in 2014, we presented new opportunities for the customers we served. This latest partnership with Allworx expands upon this to offer a broader end-to-end IP technology solution from a single provider and is a natural extension of GDC’s dedication to increase employee productivity, maximize technology investments and improve operational IT efficiency.”

Tom Elliott, director of sales for Allworx, added, “Allworx is extremely pleased to have ICS, a division of GDC as an authorized partner. We believe the marketplace that ICS has serviced so well for 25+ years is a prime target for the Allworx line of servers and phones because legacy telecom systems are ideal replacement targets for the new Allworx IP technology.”
