The Vision:

Improved Telecom Solutions was founded with a passion to assist businesses in making their telecommunications infrastructure current, economical, and scalable as new technologies are introduced and businesses expand to other parts of the country and internationally.  We deliver the type of white-glove service rarely found in the industry today. We focus is on mid to large sized businesses and finding them the most attractive, efficient, and cost-effective telecom solutions available. What do we mean by “telecom”? We consider telecom to be an all-encompassing term referring to everything related to your Data, Voice, and Cloud infrastructure.

We work with over 200 Carriers, Solution Providers, Cloud Providers, Equipment Providers, and Managed Service Providers. We utilize our vast resources to serve you. So whether you have a single office, multiple offices throughout the United States or offices throughout the world, we’re your single point of contact with best-in-class solutions customized for your specific applications.

We’re all about CX!

Customer Experience (CX) is an aggregate of a customer’s A-Z experience.  It’s not a snapshot of a key discussion, meeting, touchpoint, or interaction.
It’s the overall experience you feel before, during, and after you decide to proceed with a solution.

How was your overall experience?  Did your provider understand your current situation, your desired outcome, and what’s necessary to implement it?  Or did they try to shove you into a cookie-cutter solution so they can process your order, cash the commission check, and move on to the next customer?  It makes you wonder if they had your best interest in mind…
