“SIPPIO changed how we talk about voice with our customers. It’s not a pitch anymore – it’s an easy yes.”
– Hugo Almeida, CEO, Abitronix
The Challenge
For more than two decades, Abitronix has earned its reputation as a trusted technology advisor to businesses, government agencies, and enterprises across the globe. From unified communications and cybersecurity to surveillance and managed services, the team at Abitronix prides itself on recommending only the solutions they truly believe in.
But when it came to enabling voice calling inside Microsoft Teams, the options were frustrating. Legacy providers meant lengthy implementation timelines, complex infrastructure, rigid contracts, and support teams that felt distant and bureaucratic. For a company whose own brand is built on personalized service and genuine care, partnering with a voice provider that operated like a faceless telco was never going to work.
Abitronix needed a partner, not just a vendor. They needed a platform that was fast to deploy, easy to manage, and backed by real people who actually picked up the phone.
The Solution: Enter SIPPIO
When Abitronix discovered SIPPIO, the difference was immediate.
SIPPIO’s 100% Azure-native platform eliminates the complexity that has long plagued voice enablement for Microsoft Teams. There’s no hardware to rack, no code to write, and no weeks-long professional services engagements to schedule. Users are activated and making calls in minutes, not months.
But the technology was only half the story. What truly set SIPPIO apart was the team behind it.
“With legacy providers, you open a ticket and wait. With SIPPIO, you send a message and a real person responds – usually someone you already know by name. That kind of partnership is rare in this industry.”
– Hugo Almeida, CEO, Abitronix
From the very first conversation, the SIPPIO team treated Abitronix like a true partner. Onboarding was collaborative, not transactional. Questions were answered with genuine enthusiasm, not ticket numbers.
And when it came time to bring SIPPIO’s solutions to Abitronix’s customers, the SIPPIO team was right there alongside them – helping craft proposals, joining calls, and celebrating wins together.
Why SIPPIO Is Different
The cloud communications space is crowded with legacy providers still operating on outdated models: long contracts, slow provisioning, impersonal support, and pricing structures designed to confuse.
SIPPIO was built from the ground up to be the antidote to all of that.
| Legacy Providers | SIPPIO | |
| Deployment Speed | Weeks to months | Minutes |
| Infrastructure | On-premise hardware, SBCs | 100% Azure-native cloud |
| Support Experience | Ticket queues, impersonal | Named contacts, fast & friendly |
| Pricing | Complex, hidden fees | Transparent per-user subscription |
| Partner Relationship | Transactional | Collaborative & invested |
| Global Coverage | Limited or complex | 80+ countries, one platform |
For partners like Abitronix, this translates into a fundamentally better experience – both for their own team and for the end customers they serve. Conversations about Microsoft Teams voice calling go from complex sales cycles to straightforward value propositions.
The People Behind the Platform
Ask anyone at Abitronix what makes the SIPPIO partnership work, and the answer always comes back to the people.
SIPPIO’s channel team—led by Steve Forcum, recently recognized as a 2026 CRN® Channel Chief—brings deep industry expertise paired with an approachable, partner-first mentality that is genuinely refreshing.
Whether it’s a quick technical question, strategic guidance on positioning a deal, or co-marketing support to drive pipeline, the SIPPIO team consistently shows up with energy, expertise, and a willingness to go the extra mile.
This is not a vendor relationship where partners are treated as line items on a spreadsheet. SIPPIO invests in its partners with dedicated resources, localized support, and programs like SIPPIO Rewards that are designed to accelerate mutual growth.
“The SIPPIO team feels like an extension of our own. They don’t just support us—they champion us.”
– Hugo Almeida, CEO, Abitronix

Since partnering with SIPPIO, Abitronix has been able to confidently bring Microsoft Teams voice calling to its diverse customer base—including government agencies, healthcare organizations, law firms, and enterprises. The impact has been felt across the board:
- Faster Time to Value: Customers are up and running on Microsoft Teams Phone in a fraction of the time it would take with legacy providers. What once required weeks of planning and professional services now happens in minutes with SIPPIO.

- Stronger Customer Relationships: When the underlying technology just works and the support experience is exceptional, Abitronix’s customers are happier—and that reflects directly on the trust and credibility Abitronix has built over 20+ years.
- A True Growth Engine: With SIPPIO’s global reach spanning 80+ countries and its expanding portfolio that now includes Zoom Phone, Cisco Webex, AI analytics, and messaging, Abitronix has a growing menu of solutions to offer as their customers’ needs evolve.
Looking Ahead
The partnership between Abitronix and SIPPIO is still in its early chapters, and both teams are energized about what’s next. As SIPPIO continues to expand its platform with new capabilities—including SIPPIO Care for managed services, advanced AI-powered analytics, and an ever-growing global footprint—Abitronix is poised to deliver even more value to its customers.
For Abitronix, the decision to partner with SIPPIO wasn’t just about finding a better voice platform. It was about finding a partner that shares their values: commitment, innovation, and an unwavering focus on the customer experience.
In SIPPIO, they found exactly that.
