TeleBlend: More Steps to Ensure SunRocket Transition

In an effort to ensure it has the resources in place to manage a fairly sizable inflow of former SunRocket customers, should that occur, TeleBlend executives have signed an agreement with Sherwood Partners, the entity winding down SunRocket, for hardware and software assets that will make any customer transition seamless.

TeleBlend, a “preferred” provider for former SunRocket customers, is offering these customers a heavily discounted monthly subscription rate of $12.95 for the duration of their previous annual contract with SunRocket.

We won't know more until this afternoon, but it seems logical to assume the deal gives TeleBlend ensured access to in-service analog terminal adapters and the provisioning and operating systems used to keep them in service, at least through any transition period where customers are moved over the existing TeleBlend back office and network.

The agreeement does not seem to affect the earlier "preferred supplier" deals Sherwood struck with Packet8 and TeleBlend.
