Providing you a competitive edge

Digium is committed to enabling your success and providing you a competitive edge as a valued partner.
Digium offers the Digium Channel Certification Program to provide you the product training to be successful. To participate at the Registered or Select partner levels, your company must be certified in at least one Digium solution specialty: Asterisk or Switchvox.

Switchvox Certification Specialty

This provides Digium partners with the knowledge to design, implement and support telephony solutions based on Switchvox, Digium's award winning Unified Communications solutions. Channel partners who certify under this specialty will receive recognition as a Certified Switchvox Partner. Organizations who wish to be recognized as Certified Switchvox Partners must execute a Digium Registered or Select Channel Partner agreement and certify two individuals in their organization as Certified Switchvox Sales Professionals, and one individual in their organization as a Certified Swtichvox Sales Engineer.

Individuals must also take the online Asterisk Essentials curriculum. Individuals may bypass coursework and proceed directly to the dCAA exam if they already have prerequisite knowledge. The expense to access this coursework is 100% reimbursable by Digium, once the Digium partner requirements have been met. For the purposes of Asterisk Specialization, Digium Certified Asterisk Professional (dCAP) credentials can be substituted for the dCAA credentials.

An Inside Look at the Advantages of Being a Digium Partner
2012 5-Star Award

Let Our Partners Tell You!

Don't just take our word for it... this year at AstriCon we asked some of our partners to share why their customers love Digium:

Video
"A feature set previously only available to much larger companies."
Video
"By far the most powerful interface for the price out there."
Video
"Our experience selling Switchvox has been fantastic."
"As a longtime Digium partner, we were excited to hear Digium was creating their own phones. I can honestly say that Digium has hit a home run with their phones. Hitting the right price points, while delivering unique advance functionality and tight integration with Switchvox and Asterisk. If you aren’t selling Digium phones, you are missing out on the opportunity to provide the best phones on the market today for your Switchvox and Asterisk deployments." - David Johnson, president, Fulcrum Group

Thousands of companies in more than 170 countries rely on Digium phone systems.
