Global Connect, a web-based voice broadcasting company, has reportedly selected VoIP Inc. as its VoIP service provider.

The reseller deal means Global Connect will use VoIP Inc.’s VoiceOne Termination Service to handle its current call volume, which, during peak traffic periods, exceeds 36 calls per second.

“This is an important win for VoIP Inc.,” said Gary Post, president and CEO of VoIP, Inc., in a press release. “Voice broadcasting is a huge business serving the entertainment, political, retail, education, collections, emergency services, insurance and other industries, and it is being revolutionized by VoIP technology. We are thrilled to be working with Global Connect in this fast-growing industry.”

Adrian Patten, Global Connect’s director of technology, said it is critical for his business to be able to handle large call volume concurrently without failure.

“This is a common struggle for many VoIP vendors,” he said. “However, VoIP Inc. has proven its ability to manage thousands of concurrent calls with ease, with an extremely high success rate. Besides offering superior technology, we are also impressed by the VoIP Inc. team’s flexibility, customer service, and willingness to get the job done right.”

VoIP Inc. made news recently when it announced that it is planning to relocate its corporate headquarters from Fort Lauderdale to Orlando, where its Voice One businesses are already located. The move is expected to improve VoIP Inc.’s operating efficiency and result in net annual cost savings of about $600,000.

VoIP Inc. also recently announced the sale of its DTNet Technologies subsidiary, a move which the company said would save it $420,000 a year.

VoIP Inc. also made news in June when it announced that it had selected Envox Worldwide’s communications development platform, Envox 6.3, to power its VoiceOne Enhanced 911 Verification Service. The VoiceOne Enhanced 911 service is an FCC (News - Alert)-compliant solution for VoIP-based 911 calls.
