Villa Financial Services is XO Communications Inc.'s XOptions Flex business customer number 1,500, the companies announced on Tuesday. Villa Financial Services, a mortgage company serving the Hispanic markets of Arizona and Colorado, signed up with XO in order to receive this VoIP service for businesses, which was launched just five months ago.


 
The mortgage company will deploy the service at its offices in Denver and Phoenix. "XOptions Flex provides us with capabilities to help us stay even more competitive in an increasingly competitive mortgage industry," said William Kerbs, vice president of Villa Financial Services. "With features like unlimited calling and dynamic bandwidth allocation, XOptions Flex allows us to take advantage of VoIP to give us more capabilities than before and a greater overall value for our telecommunications spending."


 
For a flat monthly fee, XOptions Flex service bundle subscribers get unlimited local and long distance calling, dedicated Internet access and Web-based hosting. Subscribers also get dynamic bandwidth allocation, voice virtual private networking (VPN), and a simple Administrative Web Portal. Businesses can use these IP-based features without having to replace their existing analog phone systems.
 
"We’re very pleased with the success and adoption of XOptions Flex by businesses across the country," said Craig Collins, vice president of product management and marketing communications at XO Communications.  "Businesses quickly see the advantages of XOptions Flex. With its features, flexibility and simplicity, XOptions Flex offers businesses the best value for voice, Internet and hosting needs all in one simple solution."
 
XOptions Flex is currently available in Akron, Allentown, Atlanta, Austin, Baltimore, Boston, Chicago, Cleveland, Columbus, Dallas, Denver, Detroit, Fort Lauderdale, Fort Worth, Harrisburg, Houston, Jersey City, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Miami, Memphis, Minneapolis, Nashville, New York, Newark, Oakland, Orange County, CA, Orlando, Philadelphia, Phoenix, Portland, Sacramento, St. Louis,  St. Paul, St. Petersburg, Salt Lake City, San Antonio, San Diego, San Francisco, San Jose, Scranton, Seattle, Spokane, Tampa, Trenton, Washington, DC, West Palm Beach, and Wilmington, DE.
 
Today's news follows XO's recently inked deal with NEXL Network Systems announced last month. The companies joined forces to offer businesses a service bundle comprised of XO’s data centers and IP network infrastructure and NEXL's complete managed infrastructure computing services.
 
The multi-year agreement will enable XO and NEXL to co-market and sell each other's services through XO direct and indirect sales channels and NEXL's direct sales force. According to the companies’ news announcement, through the agreement, "NEXL becomes the provider of complex managed services to XO managed hosting customers, and XO becomes a preferred provider of data center and network services to NEXL customers."
