GOCare solutions will integrate with other key SCTC partners, including Calix—a platform, cloud, and managed services company—and MACC B/OSS.

Customer experience, not a great broadband product, is the defining differentiator for today’s broadband service providers,” stated Mike Roddy, CEO of GOCare. “We commend Matt and the SCTC team for making the investment in GOCare’s digital experience platform. Increasing competition requires SCTC to ensure they are easy to do business with.”

“This partnership will support a meaningful enhancement in ease of use for SCTC’s employees and customers where manual tasks are replaced by seamless automation to create exceptional customer experiences,” said Stephen Eyre, Vice President Calix Partner Community. “Nowadays, embracing the technology collaboration capabilities inherent in Calix Cloud is not just a luxury but rather a business necessity required to drive innovation and enhance the journey forward. We are excited to build a future of excellence with our partners, where every subscriber interaction reflects a commitment to unparalleled service.”

About Scott County Telephone Cooperative:

During the end of the summer of 1951, the Scott County Telephone Cooperative took shape to serve more than 420 square miles of Scott County, Virginia, and 15 square miles of Hancock County, Tennessee. The non-profit cooperative would bring telephone service to the region.

The goal was to create the infrastructure needed to promote economic development and quality of life. And while the technology has changed — SCTC now relies on a fast network to provide services to homes and businesses — the mission remains the same.

With a close partnership with companies such as Powell Valley Electric Scott County Telephone is poised to grow and continue to offer a superior product and support to our customers.

Today, SCTC’s Virginia service area spans Scott, Russell, Wise, Dickenson, and Lee counties. It also includes the city of Norton, Virginia. In Tennessee, the cooperative serves Claiborne, Grainger, Hancock, Hawkins, and Union counties.

Services also go far beyond high-quality phone plans. Now, the cooperative offers video, fast broadband internet and an infrastructure capable of meeting tomorrow’s technology needs today. As always, the vision of the SCTC Board of Directors members is to promote economic development and to improve the lives of Southwest Virginia residents and neighboring Northeastern Tennesseans. The board and cooperative continue to take a proactive approach to developing new services.

Just as it first did nearly 70 years ago, SCTC continues to serve its members with the latest technology, superior customer support and a commitment to improving the lives of those in our region.
