Regardless of whether your OvaTek consultant recommends a single service provider solution or a multi-vendor solution, you still have a single point of contact to deal with the person who knows your account best. If you are currently or will be evaluating these types of services, it's a no-brainer to contact OvaTek for help. By working with an industry insider at OvaTek, you will hear the TRUTH.

When you use an experienced OvaTek consultant, you tap into a wealth of knowledge and experience of someone who has been in the telecommunications, cloud and internet industries for many years and has experience working with many carriers and service providers. An OvaTek consultant will have experience dealing with almost every telecommunications provider out there and best of breed cloud providers. We will tell you how they really perform. Who has the most reliable network? Who has billing problems? Who is going bankrupt? Who has service issues? Who can make the desired install date? When using an OvaTek consultant, you don’t have to listen to “The Company Story” for each carrier, as they always tend to dress up their deficiencies. You get to hear the TRUTH.

We are invested in a long term relationship with your company. Some things you should be aware of if dealing directly with a service provider. When you work with a direct sales representative for a service provider, one that may be here today and gone tomorrow, they are paid only to bring in the sale. There is absolutely no incentive for a direct sales rep to ever speak to you again after you sign the dotted line. As we all know in the world of corporate sales, comp plans drive behavior, and sales reps are specifically told, "If the customer has a problem, send them to the Help Desk. Do not get involved. You are paid ONLY to bring in new business." It’s sad but true. However, because OvaTek consultants are paid by commission only and on a residual basis, our entire business model is based upon building a portfolio of happy, long term customers.

The exact same pricing is used in the partner channel and the direct channel. In fact in many situations the services aquired through an OvaTek consultant tends to be less that with a direct saleperson. The cost to a service provider per sale is much lower for the service provider when an opportunity is brought in by an OvaTek consultant. Direct sales representitives are paid a base salary, commission, health benefits, 401k, profit sharing and more. These costs are taken into consideration when they are pricing out services for that direct salesperson. In spite of all of the additional knowledge you can tap into with an OvaTek consultant, you can be sure you are not charged any extra for it. For large projects, special pricing is available to both partner and direct channels at the same amounts.  It is also not uncommon for the partner channel to have promotions or incentives that the direct representative has not been given access to for the customer. If the direct representatives have promotions available, they are often compensated extra if they do not use them for their clients. OvaTek consultants will pull out any available promotions available in an effort to gain your business for the long haul, as they are not incented or penalized for use of promotions. It's an incredible model that allows the customer to win!
