“We are proud to be the first to integrate call control with ACT!,” Cory Miller, principal at C3IP, said in a statement.
 
He also explained that. by integrating ACT!, the contact and customer management solution, with BroadSoft's proven telephony platform increases productivity through easy to use features, such as click to dial from the database, automatic logging of calls and screen pops on inbound calls.
 
“When you combine the market leader in VoIP applications with ACT!, a pioneer of customer relationship management, you unleash a powerful joint solution for businesses of all sizes,” said Michael Lauricella, director at BroadSoft Xtended, the company's open development program.
 
“C3IP has proven the flexibility of the BroadWorks platform to create new, exciting service offerings that add value for the end-user,” he said.
