This new SellWith8 tier allows select partners to sell directly with 8×8, increase go-to-market efforts, improve the depth of integration, and jointly solve customer pain points. Additional tier features include:

  • A highly curated tier of invite-only partners selected for their fit with relevant use cases, capabilities, security features, and more.
  • Direct access to the 8×8 product team for roadmap alignment and co-development for tight integrations and to provide a native-like user experience for tier partners and their customers.
