The Power of Remanufacturing with Sotel
Sotel has long been a leader in remanufacturing high-quality IT communications and networking equipment. Their rigorous five-step quality inspection process and triple-testing approach ensure that every piece of equipment meets the highest standards—Sotel CERTIFIED. This process not only extends the life of devices but also reduces electronic waste.
Through their Buy-Back Program, Sotel gives a new life to out-of-service, off-lease, and unused equipment from top manufacturers like Avaya, Cisco, Polycom, Nortel, Yealink and NEC products. This approach helps organizations reduce their carbon footprint by avoiding the manufacturing of new devices and supporting the circular economy.
A Green and Cost-Effective Solution
Sotel enables businesses to access reliable, remanufactured UCaaS, collaboration, and networking equipment at a fraction of the cost of new equipment—up to 60% less. With a large inventory of remanufactured and end-of-life products from leading brands, Sotel ensures that organizations can find the devices they need without the environmental impact associated with producing new hardware.
Phonism’s Role in Streamlining Sustainable Device Management
While Sotel focuses on delivering the equipment, Phonism complements these efforts by providing an efficient device management platform. Phonism’s solution makes it easy to deploy and manage devices remotely, eliminating the need for on-site service visits, reducing labor costs, and accelerating deployment timelines.
By leveraging Phonism with Sotel’s remanufactured devices, businesses can achieve a truly green IT setup. Devices can be deployed in seconds with pre-configured templates, minimizing the environmental impact of manual provisioning and extensive setups. This combination allows for seamless integration of remanufactured hardware into modern UCaaS platforms like Zoom Phone and Webex by Cisco, supporting corporate green initiatives and reducing waste.
