The VoIP subsidiary of NewMarket Technology, IP Global Voice, has done a deal with Digium to adopt the open source telephony platform Asterisk for small business deployment. IP Global Voice says it is now positioned as Digium's key certified partner in Northern California.
IP Global Voice product are marketed under the Xiptel brand name.
"IP Global Voice offers a wide range of hosted and premise based
telephone services," said Peter Geddis, CEO for IP Global Voice. "Open
source technologies and developments are changing the way businesses
are built.
"From desk top applications to core systems including
telephone and data network applications, the open source direction is
taking off like wildfire. Virtually every major carrier and service
provider has Asterisk working in their lab or in field tests. The large
legacy companies know it's coming and they are desperately trying to
figure out how to defend themselves. It's clearly a case of 'get on
board or get out of the way.'"
Asterisk, coupled with other open source technologies, is a lower
cost, highly flexible replacement for expensive software platforms,
similar to the one on which the XIPTEL offering was originally
launched, explains the company.
