   Persimmon Connections

   Persimmon Connections determines optimal Information Technology solutions that will aid an organization to improve its success. We do so via an independent assessment of the organization’s current use of technology and the best way to achieve its goals. Originally, we specialized in voice and data communications services. Ranging from our specialties, which are internet access, Private Lines, and local and long-distance phone services, through networking such as SD-WAN, MPLS, SASE, and similar services, Persimmon Connections continues to recommend best cost, quality solutions using connections such as Fast Ethernet, Gig-E fiber, cable, cellular, satellite, and other wireless services as well as communications services such as UCaaS, VoIP, CCaaS, and AI. Additionally, we now include cybersecurity, IoT, and auxiliary technology services. Although paid consulting is performed for special requests, basic analyses and recommendations for Information Technology needs are paid for by commissions from the winning vendors. Persimmon Communications represents hundreds of providers, most of whom have a number of options that are offered at very attractive pricing given the volume of business that we and our associates bring to them. In fact, the pricing we obtain for our customers might best be described as wholesale pricing.
