Popular Telephony and Commoca Partner in Miami

By David Sims, TMCnet CRM Alert Columnist


Popular Telephony, a provider of serverless communications and inventor of Peerio, has announced at the Internet Telephony Conference & Expo in Miami a strategic partnership with Commoca, a US designer of advanced IP embedded solutions.




The agreement enables the integration of the Peerio embedded middleware into Commoca’s high-end touch-screen IP phone. Commoca is partnering with Texas Instruments for their VoIP technology.

Based on TI’s advanced TNETV1050 IP phone platform and with Peerio integrated into the core, the touch screen IP phone will become a highly intelligent, self-managing and self-healing telephony device for serverless, peer-to-peer enterprise and broadband communications. Commoca will offer their IP phone to a range of customers ranging from large enterprises, Small and Medium Enterprises to home users. 

“Popular Telephony has now licensed its telephony application suite to more partners than almost any other IP-PBX or traditional PBX manufacturer in recent history,” said Gavin McFadyen, marketing director with Popular Telephony in announcing the partnership. “The Commoca IP terminal allows us to develop and deliver customized applications for hospitality, call center and financial markets to name just a few of the actual projects already under way. “

Peerio is a middleware for embedded communication devices. Peerio-enabled devices and soft-clients, collectively, form a bespoke server-free telephony system – feature-rich, redundant and massively scaleable, replacing the IP-PBX and other old-fashioned systems dependant upon a centralized architecture.

The new serverless IP telephony system design offers enterprises a great deal of flexibility along with financial savings company spokesmen claim can reach 80% on the system cost and 90% on the maintenance.  A protocol-agnostic solution, Peerio operates with all industry-standards based terminals including SIP and H.323.

Commoca’s IP phone is a high-end sophisticated terminal with quality touch-screen display supporting hundreds of advanced enterprise and residential applications, including different types of productivity tools and value-added services.  The device uses other TI partners’ software products and has undergone advanced tuning to deliver high sound quality.

Angela Raucher, IP phone business manager, TI’s VoIP business unit noted that the partnership “certainly opens up more opportunities for VoIP technology in the burgeoning peer-to-peer enterprise and broadband communications industry.”
