IT EXPO News: Voxeo Intros VoipCenter 6.0 SIP Platform
TMCnet VoIP Minute Watch Columnist
The VoipCenter SIP platform enables open SIP application delivery via the Call Control XML (CCXML) and VoiceXML standards.
"VoiceXML and CCXML come from the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), the same standards body that delivered HTTP and HTML, perhaps the two most successful application development standards ever created,” said Jonathan Taylor, president and CEO of Voxeo. "To date, Voxeo’s CCXML and VoiceXML engines have been used by more than 14,000 companies to deliver over 25,000 feature-rich, highly-reliable, future-proof SIP-based telephony applications."
Voxeo's CCXML and VoiceXML-based SIP product family includes the VoipCenter SIP Application Server software and the VoipCenter SIP Media Server software.
VoipCenter Fusion Servers integrate both Voxeo's SIP Application and Media software into a single 1U or 3U rack-mount server. Voxeo’s SIP Fusion Server offers VoiceXML IVR, CCXML call control, speech recognition, speech synthesis, call conferencing, call recording and an optional built-in PSTN-to-SIP VoIP gateway in one integrated, rack-mount device. The VoipCenter Fusion Server integrates with both existing and new PSTN, PBX, and VoIP deployments, and is available in both 120/240 volt AC or -48 volt DC telecom power models.
VoipCenter SIP products are currently available as a hosted service, software install, or server. VoipCenter SIP is compatible with SIP vendors, devices and services, including Avaya, BroadVoice, Cisco/Linksys, Delta3, Digium/Asterisk, Global Crossing, Level3, Lucent, Nortel, SIP Express Router (SER), Sipura, Sonus, and Televolution.
Voxeo made news earlier today when the company announced it acquired the customers, support contracts, and VoiceXML platform products of Vocomo Software Corporation, the company announced on Tuesday. The move will enable Voxeo to support existing Vocomo customers, provide Vocomo platform bug fixes and enhancements, and sell new customer licenses for the Vocomo platform. The agreement also allowed Voxeo to hire Vocomo's support staff.
Voxeo also made news back in September when it was tapped by Skype for its VoiceCenter Hosted IVR Voice Application Platform. The partnership would connect Skype callers and Skype Credit accounts to voice services running on Voxeo's VoiceCenter Hosted IVR Voice Application Platforms through Skype's Voice Services Program.
"Skype has driven a revolution in personal communications by popularizing free Internet phone calls. We are committed to opening the endless possibilities for voice by creating a marketplace for our thriving ecosystem of partners and developers to make it easy for their innovative services to be available to our millions of callers worldwide," said Niklas Zennström, CEO and co-founder of Skype back then. "We challenge the world's most creative content providers to work with us and our partners such as Voxeo to develop these new and exciting forms of Internet voice services."
