Tata Communications has launched Secure Franchisee Connect system which enables an organization to connect all its dealers in a secured way.

According to the company, the Secure Franchisee Connect (SFC) is not reliant on only one type of connectivity option and can be implemented on any connectivity medium that suits the business requirements.

Tata Communications has said that the SFC is offered as an overlay on its IP-VPN/ MPLS network and enables organizations to extend connectivity to their dealer locations to MPLS via multiple access options depending on the bandwidth, scalability and user concentration. The system provides direct integration to core MPLS network enabling a direct access to business applications.

Sunil Joshi, president for EBU at Tata Communications, said: Our customers with a dealer, franchise or branch network in many industries have been asking us to develop a secure, cost-effective, reliable and flexible network that can integrate their partners with their business and allow faster information exchange by extending ERP, CRM etc applications to meet regional markets and customer demands with speed. We have developed SFC to meet these needs and we are confident this solution will help our customers meet the market demands while managing costs in today’s tough economic climate.
