Fonality trixbox Pro Brings Home 2007 Internet Telephony Magazine Product of the Year Award
Powerful Small Business Phone System Recognized for Outstanding Innovation
LOS ANGELES – January 9, 2008 – For the third year in a row, Fonality, a leading open source telephony company, announced today that Technology Marketing Corporation’s (TMC®) INTERNET TELEPHONY magazine (www.itmag.com) has named one of its products as a recipient of its Product of the Year Award. trixbox Pro, the business-grade phone system that allows companies with five to 500 employees to make free VoIP calls, has been named winner of the INTERNET TELEPHONY Product of the Year Award for 2007.
“With trixbox Pro, data resellers now have the perfect solution to create fully managed, feature-rich business phone systems for their SMB customers,” said Arnold Waldstein, Fonality senior vice president of marketing. “We’re proud that INTERNET TELEPHONY has once again recognized Fonality and the trixbox Pro software team for building a highly scalable, affordable, and powerful business phone system.”
In addition to traditional PSTN dialing and PBX features, trixbox Pro also includes conference calling, unified messaging between voicemail and email, employee presence management, an embedded corporate chat server, advanced call center features and the ability to integrate with Microsoft Outlook, Salesforce.com and SugarCRM. trixbox Pro is a hybrid-hosted phone system, which means the software is downloaded and installed on a local computer that connects to the Fonality network where server health, call quality and usage are constantly monitored. The hybrid-hosted architecture of trixbox Pro also allows resellers to proactively monitor the health of their customer systems and handle a wide variety of remote configuration tasks. The hybrid-hosted nature of trixbox Pro also securely extends the phone system outside the corporate firewall, so an employee’s extension can follow them when they work from home, remotely on a laptop, or even on a mobile phone.
“Fonality has proven they are committed to quality and excellence while addressing real needs in the marketplace. INTERNET TELEPHONY is pleased to grant a 2007 Product of the Year Award to trixbox Pro,” said Rich Tehrani, TMC President and Editor-in-Chief of INTERNET TELEPHONY Magazine. “We’re proud to honor their hard work and accomplishments and look forward to more innovative solutions from Fonality in the future.”
