SunTel Services adds 6 people as it grows customer base
The owners of SunTel Services like to refer to their company as a family firm. The Troy-based firm was co-founded by brothers Gary and Don Jackson in 1986 and they have been expanding it since. SunTel Services provides services that help unify communication devices. It services the automotive, manufacturing, government, healthcare, education, finance, professional services and technology sectors, basically any type of company that needs to connect multiple mobile devices and computers. "They have a phone at the office and a phone at the home office and a smartphone. They have a PC and a laptop," Gary Jackson says. "The need for intercommunications is driving the demand to have a large amount of bandwidth to run these applications." That demand has pushed up SunTel Services' revenue by 10 percent over the last year. That growth prompted the hiring of six new employees, expanding the staff to 80 people and the occasional intern. "We continue to evolve our business," Gary Jackson says. "We have 1,500 customers that we are serving. We are going to continue our growth at a reasonable rate."
