Our focus is on developing, hosting and managing a telecom platform. We know that it takes a lot of time and effort to explain and sell a telecom solution. We believe that using an indirect sales channel and therefore working together with suitable partners is the best model for this.
Become a distributor/reseller. We pass on our license model to you and you determine the price for the end customer or find other resellers.
Build own customer relationships. We don't have contact with end customers; build your relationships, manage them and create upsell and cross-sell opportunities.
Use our complete APIs. With the right technical knowledge, you can make anything you want with Compass.

Hosted Compass partner
We offer our Compass platform as a shared hosted solution. This has benefits regarding set-up, costs and maintenance. You will use hostedcompass.com with our Talksome styling to enter Studio, the web interface for configuring and managing Compass for end users.
White-label partner
You will still use Compass as a multi-tenant hosted solution just as the previous option. Only now you can rebrand it and sell it as your own product.
Own stack partner
If the other solutions don’t fit your proposition and you don’t want to have a multi-tenant solution, we can go even one step further and discuss and set up your own Compass stack for you.
FAQ
We ask partners for a license fee per user per month. The number of users is measured monthly and billing is adjusted accordingly. Depending on the type of partnership – see above – additional costs are charged.
The Compass platform is a multi-tenant hosted service. This means that Talksome manages the platform in combination with a hosting partner and that one instance of the platform is running that is shared by all partners and underlying resellers and end customers. This provides efficiency and cost benefits and also avoids having to support many different versions of Compass at the same time. However, it is also possible to request your own instance of the platform, but managed by us (or jointly). See here for the possibilities.
Not everyone can just become a Compass partner because a minimum level of technical expertise is required to support end customers as is a minimum number of seats. That is why our onboarding consists of the following phases:
