These customers selected VocalData because of its reliability, flexibility and scalability. VocalData is the only application developer to support all of the major IP protocols - including SIP, MGCP, SCCP and MiNET - which means that VocalData enables service providers to offer the widest range of phone choices to their end customers. Using VocalData, service providers aren't locked into supporting only the SIP protocol. Instead, they have the choice of implementing a wide range of VoIP protocols, which can provide them with more flexibility in application delivery.

"We choose VocalData not only because of the superiority of its application server, but also because of its outstanding reputation as the market leader for hosted IP telephony platforms," said Kathleen Hanafan, President of Onit Communications. "We have been pleased by the platform's flexibility and by the VocalData team's ongoing responsiveness to our needs."

VocalData also supports its customers through its unique Business Success Portfolio program, a suite of services and tools designed to assist service providers with the successful implementation, marketing and selling of revenue-generating, hosted IP telephony solutions. This program can shave months off the complex process of deploying and selling VoIP services as well as enhances the volume of revenue that VoIP service providers can collect from enhanced services - thus improving their return on investment.

"VocalData was the only Application Server that provided us with a highly intuitive user interface and a rich, proven VoIP feature," said John Macleod, chief technology officer of Intellivox Communications.

"VocalData provides unmatched flexibility and service to our customers. That's why our application server leads the industry in real deployments, with more than 225,000 lines deployed in live networks," said Mark Whittier, vice president, VocalData. "At VocalData, we don't believe in announcing vaporware - particularly when we see the momentum for VoIP building every day. We expect to see our already fast-growing business expand exponentially in the coming years."

VocalData has offered the industry's first VoIP platform to serve both enterprise and residential users for over four years. VocalData's application server is the most cost-effective application server on the market today because it supports the greatest number of calls per second while also delivering carrier-class reliability. In addition, VocalData provides flexible feature packages for service providers, allowing those supporting residential services to support residential VoIP "must haves" such as caller ID, call waiting, voice mail and find-me calling and advanced features such as conferencing and click-to-dial. It is also unique in that it allows service providers to quickly create a personalized, browser-based customer Web portal to boost brand awareness and increase customer ease-of-use.
