8x8 Virtual Office VoIP implemented by Food for the Hungry


Nov 03, 2010 (TELECOMWORLDWIRE via COMTEX) -- Business communications solutions provider 8x8 Inc (Nasdaq:EGHT) announced on Wednesday that Christian relief and development organisation Food for the Hungry has deployed its Virtual Office VoIP phone service to streamline communications between its domestic and international locations.



No financial details were disclosed.

According to the company, to keep domestic and overseas staff and volunteers connected, the charity chose the 8x8 Virtual Office phone solution, which offered the necessary geographic coverage and flexibility and saved the organisation capital and ongoing operational expense.


Food for the Hungry currently subscribes to over 150 Virtual Office Unlimited extensions along with 8x8 virtual and toll free numbers and fax extensions. Field offices in the UK, Guatemala, Bolivia and Haiti, as well as individual volunteers working from remote locations, are connected over 8x8's VoIP network, enabling workers to call one another by dialing an extension, in this way eliminating international toll charges.
