Digium Rolls Out New Version of Switchvox IP PBX
(Wireless News Via Thomson Dialog NewsEdge)
Digium has released Switchvox SMB 3.5 and the AA60 Switchvox Appliance.
The company said that Switchvox, designed for small to mid-sized
businesses, is the most widely used communications system based on
Asterisk, the open source project headed by Digium and bolstered by the
contributions of hundreds of developers around the world.
Digium noted that Switchvox SMB 3.5 introduces features and
enhancements that larger companies require and the AA60 Switchvox
Appliance was designed specifically with the needs of small business in
mind, highlighting the expanding market for the Switchvox product line.
Switchvox IP PBX products deliver the advanced functions typically
associated with expensive, proprietary systems, but also provide
features that bridge the gap between the business phone system and the
power of Web 2.0. Integration with leading CRM applications
Salesforce.com and SugarCRM as well as Google Maps is included through
Switchvox SMB's Switchboard interface, and customers can easily create
custom mashups that leverage other Web applications in seconds, with no
programming knowledge required.
The company said that new features in version 3.5 of the IP PBX
software make it easier for administrators or resellers to set up
larger systems more quickly than ever before. Bundling Switchvox SMB
3.5 on Digium's AA60 Switchvox Appliance makes for an even more
reliable communications solution and saves valuable space in a small
office environment.
"Our customers want customized solutions one size doesn't fit all,"
said Dave Michels, president of Buffalo Communications, a VoIP
solutions provider based in Denver. "Switchvox's flexibility allows us
to deliver exactly what customers need the features that end users want
with a level of system control calibrated to meet the needs of each
company. Switchvox SMB 3.5 automates the time-consuming tasks
associated with setting up a phone system for the larger organizations
we're installing Switchvox in and frees us up to focus on delivering
even more value."
The new IP PBX products will be available on March 31.
"Digium has always led the pack when it comes to providing
next-generation features that elevate the PBX out of the phone closet
and into an inherently connected, more powerful communications
platform," said Joshua Stephens, general manager of business products
at Digium. "With the latest release of Switchvox SMB, we're addressing
a real need to provide solutions to larger and larger organizations as
they become increasingly interested in what open technologies and voice
over IP can do for them. And the release of the AA60 Switchvox
Appliance shows that the technology that appeals to the big boys can be
affordable for even a small home office."
