Multi-utility operator Clear Business, which provides UK SMEs with access to lots of different services (broadband, mobile, energy, payment, water etc.), has today announced that they’ve “strengthened” their strategic partnership with business ISP Gamma Communications.
The deal, which aims to make essential services “simpler, faster, and more effective” for small businesses across the UK, will see Gamma provide a fully managed service for connectivity and voice, delivered under the Clear Business brand.
The announcement indicates that both companies will also be “aligning both operationally and culturally” in order to create a smarter model for service delivery – one that removes complexity for business owners and adds value. Small businesses will also gain “seamless access to enterprise-grade communications“, backed by local support and established expertise.
John Murphy, CEO of Gamma Business, said:
“This partnership is rooted in a shared belief: small businesses deserve enterprise-quality service that’s simple to buy, easy to use, and backed by trusted expertise. We’re proud to be working with Clear Business to deliver exactly that. Together, we’re helping our channel partners stand out with services that are both powerful and refreshingly easy to manage.”
Jon Perkins, Chief Product & Strategy Officer of Clear Business, said:
“Simplicity is essential for small business owners. This partnership is about making their lives easier—with better service and more time to focus on running their business. As a one-stop shop for essential services, we’re committed to removing complexity and delivering real value. Gamma brings the technical expertise and service heritage that gives us—and our customers—total confidence. With Gamma powering our connectivity and voice services, we’re elevating the service experience and setting ourselves apart in a crowded market.”
Clear Business currently supports over 100,000 SMEs with their one-stop shop for essential needs and today’s deal is said to mean that they can now expect “greater speed, resilience, and responsiveness“. The partnership also supports Clear Business in navigating the UK’s shift from legacy to digital infrastructure / phone services (i.e. the WLR/PSTN switch-off), which is an area that Gamma has a lot of experience in.
