VoIP services wholesaler Voxbone has announced record results as the global VoIP business continues to accelerate despite isolated failures such as theSunRocket bankruptcy last week in the US.

Voxbone, which provides carriers, Internet Telephony Service Providers (ITSPs), calling card operators, call centers and other businesses, with services such as virtual phone numbers, origination services and a global infrastructure supporting direct inbound dial (DID) or virtual numbers, has reported asignificant boost to recurring revenues which grew by 63% from December 2006 to June 2007.

Call-minutes handled also grew by 79% during the same period as the company's customer base increased by 50% from over a similar period.

Headquartered in Brussels, Belgium, Voxbone has expanded its VoIP backbone from Europe to America and recently to Asia so that it now covers more than 5,000 cities in roughly 50 countries. During the six months to June, 2007 the company increased its global employee base by more than 61% to accommodate the increasing demand for its services. This included the opening of its first office in the U.S. (in the L.A. area) and a new feature that transforms Voxbone's standard SIP trunking into a distributed and fully redundant SIP trunk, said the company.

"We are committed to more and improved VoIP origination services -- while maintaining the highest standards of service -- throughout the world," said Rodrigue Ullens, co-founder of Voxbone. "The first half of 2007 saw tremendous growth and increased global momentum and, given the market reception to our offerings, we expect similar or even better results for the second half of the year."
