Products such as Business-Connect™, a managed phone system bundled in with the handsets and services, can expand to include even more features than in the past. The sale brings the leading global VoIP Provider an edge over its competition. The acquisition of the Matrix IVR product line opens new doors to future products and services within BandTel.

Clients can expect to receive ongoing customer support in the same manner they received prior to the acquisition.

With Matrix, BandTel as a VoIP telephone carrier can now go far beyond just offering IP voice transport, and begin to field value add endpoint services and applications that previously were not possible. The critical mass needed to offer this sort of value add custom telecom applications was simply too high for most end users to be practical. But now, by offering Matrix as a service coupled to the BandTel NPlus-Network™, custom IVR application of any size can be made feasible for a much wider audience. We are very excited about the synergy Matrix brings to our network and our product portfolio.
