phone manufacturer snom technology AG and SOA-based business communications solutions provider BlueNote Networks (
News -
Alert) announced on Monday a strategic partnership. The two companies are, after extensive certification procedures, now marketing solutions involving BlueNote’s SessionSuite software and snom’s VoIP phones, which are proven interoperable.
Alan Rosenberg, director of product management at BlueNote, said that the company’s customers are accustomed to flexible solutions that are easy and fast to deploy. This partnership with snom extends that winning recipe by ensuring that BlueNote solutions work with snom’s entire product line.
“Now, we can easily incorporate snom phones into our overall solutions,” Rosenberg said in a statement.
That product line includes all of snom’s telephones, including the 300, 320, 360 and 370 models. Each of these products is designed easy configurability and manageability—using a keypad-cursor, dedicated function keys and menus, or Web browser. The phones include user-friendly features such as programmable keys and downloadable ringtones.
Further, the phones comply with the IETF’s latest recommendations for authentication and security using industry standards.
These phones can now be paired with BlueNote’s SessionSuite family of solutions, which are designed to integrate voice, video and other interactive communications functions with business applications using Web services. These solutions help improve collaboration, productivity and business agility.
BlueNote’s SessionSuite family of solutions is made up of SIP-based Interne telephony software, Web Service application program interfaces (APIs) and client software applications. SessionSuite solutions can be deployed as standalone systems or alongside existing PBXs.
Leveraging the full power of SessionSuite, the two companies said, involves keeping a careful focus on interoperability.
“Interoperability is essential across the entire IT architecture in order to deliver an interactive communications platform that works,” said Michael Knieling, CFO and executive vice president of marketing and sales at snom, in a statement.
Knieling continued: “The Web services market is an important area for us, especially since many enterprises are depending on these new, innovative solutions to deliver telephony services as an integral part of everyday business applications.”
