Fonality Garners 2008 Unified Communications Innovation Award From TMC
Labs
(Wireless News Via Acquire Media NewsEdge)
Fonality, a provider of open source phone systems, announced that
Technology Marketing Corp. (TMC) named the Fonality application HUD a
2008 TMC Labs Innovation Award winner presented by Unified
Communications magazine.
HUD (Heads Up Display) extends the enterprise functionality of
Fonality's phone system for small and medium-sized businesses.
"HUD is clearly deserving of recognition for its out-of-box innovation
helping to transform the unified communications industry. We're proud
to reward Fonality for its hard work with a Unified Communications' TMC
Labs Innovation Award," said TMC President Rich Tehrani.
The latest version of HUD features Fonality's presence-detection
system, dubbed FindMe with Boomerang Mobile Integration. FindMe detects
employee keyboard and mouse movements and makes call routing decisions
according to where the system detects the individual's presence. Once
calls have arrived to mobile devices, calls can be recorded on the
mobile device or even "boomeranged" back to the office switch.
"HUD is changing the way people work," said Chris Lyman, Fonality CEO.
"With a single click HUD workers are connected via desk phone, mobile
phone, chat, email, or voicemail. We already have 100,000 users on HUD
whose lives are being made easier by unified communications every day."
"Fonality has demonstrated a commitment to quality, and a commitment to
the further development of the unified communications industry through
PBXtra with HUD," said Tom Keating, CTO and TMC Labs Editorial Director
at TMC. "Fonality deserves this great honor, and I look forward to
seeing other innovative solutions from them as they continue to
contribute to the future of unified communications industry."
The TMC Labs Innovation Awards honor products that demonstrate raw
innovation, unique features, and significant contributions toward
improving communications technology. The TMC Labs Innovation Awards are
not granted only to the best-selling products, but instead to those
demonstrating a significant contribution to the industry.
2008 TMC Labs Innovation Award winners can be found in the May 2008
issue of Unified Communications magazine.
