INTERNET TELEPHONY� Conference & EXPO is a targeted and innovative
tradeshow featuring what many believe to be the most comprehensive
education available in regard to selecting and deploying VoIP solutions.
IP telephony voice and data products offer businesses and
telecommunications service providers a lower-cost, more feature-rich
alternative to traditional telecom services.
The show features three days of conferences, keynote speakers from
Vonage and Venturcom, the best networking opportunities, and an Exhibit
Hall featuring all of the latest IP telephony technology. For the first
time in Miami, three new workshops have been added to address three
fast-growing segments of the marketplace: Wireless IP Telephony Summit�,
SIP Developers Day�, and International VoIP Summit�.
"The powerful lineup of presenting companies we're releasing today
is a clear indication that this, our seventh INTERNET TELEPHONY� event,
is one of the strongest so far. As other telecom markets struggle, IP
telephony and VoIP solutions continue to gain momentum as a cost-effective
alternative to traditional phone services," said TMC president and
conference co-chair, Rich Tehrani.
"Small and large enterprises, the Government, public sector
organizations - as well as service providers and resellers - gather in
sunny Miami for this event because they know they'll leave with tangible
solutions and ideas they can implement immediately. And this year's
impressive speaker roster only adds to the value," added Tehrani.
Another exciting new attraction at this year's Miami show is the IP PBX
Shootout�. First staged at last fall's San Diego INTERNET TELEPHONY�
Conference & EXPO, this special panel discussion features straight
talk about the strengths and shortcomings of the IP PBXs on the market -
right from the manufacturers themselves. The San Diego Shootout was a
resounding success where questions from the audience pressed manufacturers
to leave the marketing-speak behind and give hard answers to tough
questions. Attendees will find out in this lively panel discussion, which
solutions are best for them - and which are not!!
According to Marc Robins, TMC's VP or Publications and Trade Shows and
Associate Group Publisher, the IP PBX Shootout� is a must-attend for
attendees at all stages of the selection process.
"Whether you are being introduced to the benefits of IP PBXs for
the first time, or are ready to purchase and deploy, the panelists at the
IP PBX Shootout� will discuss and debate what's important to you. From
basic features and enhanced capabilities, to scalability and support,
every important topic will be covered," said Robins.
"With leading companies such as AltiGen, Mitel, Citel,
bConvergent, AG Communication Systems, and Pingtel on the panel for the IP
PBX Shootout�, there is quite possibly no better venue for finding the
right IP PBX for your company or organization," added Robins.
Admission to The IP PBX Shootout� is free for all registered
attendees - including press -and will be held Thursday February 6th at
9:45 am.
