Catalyst Telecom Announces Copilot Pricing Tool

GREENVILLE, S.C. – Catalyst Telecom®, a sales unit of ScanSource®, Inc. {NASDAQ: SCSC}, and value-added distributor of voice, video and data convergence solutions, has announced the creation of a new, robust pricing tool for Avaya resellers. 

With this proprietary tool, called CoPilot, resellers can take their solution design, created through Avaya Solution Designer, combine it with all applicable rebates, promotions and special bids and automatically calculate the total pricing for their end-user customers.  CoPilot even gives resellers the control to customize product and service pricing.  Resellers can then share quotes with their end-user customers in a variety of formats, such as Excel or XML.  

“We believe CoPilot is going to change the way our reseller partners do business, as it enables them to more easily and efficiently deliver customized pricing to their end-user customers,” said John Gaillard, vice president of sales, Catalyst Telecom.  “The automated process saves significant time, as it cuts out the need for manual calculations.  And by customizing the tool to fit their individual pricing and rebate structure, resellers can be assured they are delivering accurate quotes in a timely manner.”
