Open VoIP Peering Honored for Delivering Exceptional IP Communications Solutions

SAN JOSE, CALIF. (November 16, 2010) – VirtualPBX, the inventor and leading supplier of hosted business phone services, announced today that Technology Marketing Corporation (TMC) has named Virtual PBX’s Open VoIP Peering as a recipient of the 2010 INTERNET TELEPHONY Excellence Award, presented by INTERNET TELEPHONY magazine.

Virtual PBX is the first hosted PBX company to offer an open VoIP peering option, which is ideal for users who already have VoIP phones or want to reap the cost benefits of moving to VoIP without being limited to proprietary, single-vendor solutions. The service opens up greater opportunities for businesses that need the flexibility to mix and match a VoIP network with any SIP-compliant phone. This truly “blended” service gives businesses unprecedented flexibility, as they can choose to use a VoIP network for cost savings or standard phone lines for better call quality.

“Innovation is top of mind for us as we focus on delivering superior products that meet the needs of our customers,” said Paul Hammond, CEO of Virtual PBX. “We continue to see an enthusiastic response from our users, who’ve indicated their desire for VoIP services that don’t tie them down to proprietary solutions. We are delighted that INTERNET TELEPHONY has recognized our innovative technology for two consecutive years.”

Open VoIP Peering works with any solution that is fully SIP-compliant and uses the North American Numbering Plan (NANP) phone number format for destination identification. All calls sent from Virtual PBX will go directly to the appropriate network, which ensures the highest level of quality when calls are translated between standard phone lines and VoIP networks.

“The editors of INTERNET TELEPHONY were pleased to grant Virtual PBX with an INTERNET TELEPHONY Excellence Award for the company’s achievements in advancing IP communications and providing genuine solutions in the marketplace. Virtual PBX’s Open VoIP Peering has proven its outstanding contribution to IP communications and delivered winning solutions for its users,” said Eric Linask, group editorial director of INTERNET TELEPHONY.

“Virtual PBX has been recognized with a 2010 INTERNET TELEPHONY Excellence Award for proving their dedication and excellence in advancing IP communications,” stated Rich Tehrani, CEO, TMC.

The 2010 INTERNET TELEPHONY Excellence Award winners are published in the October 2010 issue of INTERNET TELEPHONY magazine, www.tmcnet.com.
