ORANGE, Conn.--(Business Wire)--
Tangoe, Inc., the leading global provider of enterprise communications lifecycle
management software and technology-enabled services, today announced that it has
entered a strategic partnership with Atlanta-based telecom consulting and
expense management provider, Advocate Networks, LLC. Under the agreement,
Advocate Networks will utilize Tangoe`s CommCare Management Platform (CMP) as
the technology foundation for its entire portfolio of fixed and mobile telecom
expense management services, including expense management, wireless helpdesk
support, provisioning, and procurement. Advocate Networks offers its wide range
of IT and telecommunications services to mid-market enterprises and service
providers with between $1 million and $20 million in annual telecom spend. 

Tangoe`s CMP technology platform encompasses the complete range of fixed and
mobile communications lifecycle management processes, including procurement,
contract management, provisioning, invoice processing, asset and inventory
management, smart device management, mobile device network management and more.
Enterprises that deploy these solutions experience increased visibility into,
and control of, their fixed and mobile communications spend and assets. As a
Tangoe partner, Advocate Networks will migrate its current customers to Tangoe`s
CMP technology and expand its managed service offerings to include enhanced
international invoice processing, order management, and mobile helpdesk support
capabilities. 

"Over the last five years, Advocate Networks has brought its expertise to more
than 300 enterprise and service provider customers with complex telecom needs,"
said Craig Gosselin, Tangoe chief marketing officer. "Its focus on full
lifecycle management in the mid-market space is a powerful market differentiator
for mid-sized organizations looking to implement complete fixed and mobile
communications management solutions." 

"Our partnership with Tangoe is a very visible reflection of our deep commitment
to our clients," said Scott Fogle, co-founder and co-president of Advocate
Networks. "Partnering with the industry leader in TEM further enhances our
ability to provide mid-sized clients with the tools that large organizations
have come to rely on to optimize their global communications-tools like invoice
support for international carriers, foreign currency conversion, and network
management of mobile devices."
