Fonality Signs Distribution Deals With Dell & JMI Telecom
Note: Is it just me but why people keep calling PBXtra "Fonality's Open Source Software"? IT IS THE ASTERISK OPEN SOURCE PBX PLATFORM. Just because you made a GUI and did some basic integration with other open source applications does not mean you can just take credit away from the people made the most valuable piece of code outside of the O.S. I hope they are submitting bugs so we are progressing the platform ahead in general. Guess is shows you what slick marketing can do for you.
Fonality, a maker VoIP phone systems for small and mid-size businesses, has selected JMI Telecom to distribute its PBXtra VoIP-capable phone system. In addition, Dell announced that it will begin bundling Fonality's open-source software with its enterprise servers.
Fonality's PBXtra system is designed to support branch offices, as well as mobile and home-based workers. It can be purchased, installed and managed by non-technical professionals. The company’s products use hybrid-hosted technology based on the open-source Asterisk telephony software.
Annual PBX revenues, including those from VoIP phone systems are expected to exceed $7.5 billion by 2011, according to analyst Alan Weckel at research firm Dell 'Oro Group, adding that much of the growth is likely to be driven by small and midsize businesses.
