Case Study: Albany International Corp. achieves secure, cost-effective global communications with IntelePeer CoreCloud SIP Trunking

Global Leader in Textiles and Materials Processing Taps IntelePeer for Cost-effective, Secure Communications

Albany International, a global leader in advanced textiles and materials processing with 18 plants in 11 countries, needed a secure, reliable and cost-effective communications solution that would integrate with its Microsoft Lync Enterprise Voice environment without disrupting daily operations or increasing MPLS bandwidth costs. The company required a SIP trunking provider qualified for Lync that would support global Direct Inward Dialing (DID), strong security, and minimal deployment overhead.

IntelePeer’s CoreCloud™ SIP Trunking delivered a fast, Lync-qualified solution that let Albany route inbound conferencing directly to its Lync data center, provide global DIDs to remote workers, and maintain preferred SBC and certificate arrangements. The deployment reduced MPLS bandwidth consumption, enabled same-day provisioning through a web portal, provided full signaling and media encryption, and prompted plans for a second trunk in the disaster recovery site for added resiliency.
