Steljes adds Konftel Audio Conferencing Phones Portfolio

Distributor Steljes has added Konftel conference phones to its business productivity suite.

Operational efficiency is a key priority for senior executives who want to do “more with less”. The Steljes Business productivity suite helps organisations achieve this aim by enabling them to get every drop of value from their technology, facilities and people. It creates a collaborative working environment where people can work together dynamically – wherever they are in the world - as if they were the same room together. The suite consists of a range of technologies including the SMART Board interactive whiteboard or interactive panel for collaborative working, SMART Bridgit data conferencing software and AVer video conferencing.

Steljes has now added the Konftel conference phone range to its business productivity suite. Having a high quality conference phone is essential to any business meeting where external participants dial in to take part. Poor quality sound, echo and static have blighted many conference calls causing participants to frequently repeat what they are saying and reducing the efficiency of the meeting.

All Konftel systems are equipped with their award-winning audio technology - OmniSound - which guarantees crystal-clear voice. Its extensive range of telephones includes the 250 and 300 series which have SD card call recording and full duplex capability allowing the sound to be transmitted and received simultaneously preventing audio clipping. The Konftel 300 and 300M models are interoperable with other communication tools including Skype and Microsoft Lync whilst the 300IP is interoperable with SIP- compatible PBXs. The wireless Konftel 300W model offers a huge 60-hour talk time whilst the 300M provides even greater flexibility by connecting to a 3G/GSM network when fitted with a SIM card.

“Konftel is the leading manufacturer of conference telephones in Europe and we intend to gain the number one position in the UK which is why we have chosen Steljes as a strategic partner to achieve this aim. The Konftel range offers versatile, superior quality products all backed up with our two year warranty” says Jeff May, Sales Director UK, Konftel.

“We have been researching the market for an audio conferencing telephone range to complement our Steljes business productivity suite” comments Martine Dodwell-Bennett, Sales and Marketing Director at Steljes “and we found the perfect partner in Konftel. Their product range offers superior quality sound and gives users the convenience of being able to connect to a meeting in a variety of ways such as using their mobile phone or via Skype amongst others. Sales of conference phones have increased steadily since 2009 with the market expected to grown annually by more than 17% by 2015.

This is a market our resellers can dominate and we are so confident of its capabilities we are offering them a 14 day ‘try before you buy’ so they see for themselves the benefits of this technology. Our resellers will be able to sell this range as part of the Steljes Business Productivity suite or sell to organisations looking to either replace their existing systems that do not perform as well or who are looking to implement a unified communications strategy. I look forward to helping Konftel continue their impressive growth and increasing their market share.”
