Basking Ridge, N.J. – Avaya Inc. announced today that Technology Marketing Corporation (TMC) has named Avaya IP Office as a recipient of a 2008 INTERNET TELEPHONY Excellence Award presented by INTERNET TELEPHONY magazine.
Avaya IP Office is a sophisticated and affordable communications solution that brings together the benefits of voice and Internet technologies to enable a small or medium sized enterprise (SME) to have the same business-critical applications available to a FORTUNE 500 firm. The suite of applications helps SMEs maximize the productivity of their employees by letting the entire staff communicate anytime, anywhere while helping to significantly lowering operating costs. “Responsiveness to customers is one of the biggest competitive advantages for SMEs, but organizations are also challenged with maintaining employee morale in a tough economy,” said Geoffrey Baird, vice president and general manager, Integrated Office Communications Group, Avaya. “This honor reinforces our leadership and future investment in bringing IP communications to the millions of small to medium sized organizations that need to communicate with partners, customers and colleagues with the same sophistication and efficiencies of their larger competitors.”
“Advancing IP communications and providing solutions that add significant value in this marketplace has earned Avaya recognition from the editors of INTERNET TELEPHONY in the form of an INTERNET TELEPHONY Excellence Award,” said Greg Galitzine, Editorial Director of INTERNET TELEPHONY. “IP Office has excelled in delivering communications solutions for its customers, who are extremely pleased and have offered their testaments of support.”
In addition to helping businesses improve cost-efficiencies and customer service, Avaya IP Office has been recognized as an important productivity driver for workers in small and medium sized businesses. Employees can use it to turn their home phones into office phones, access emails and business calls via their mobile devices, use laptops to create conference calls or work full-time from home with all of the capabilities of a branch office. This delivers productivity boosts for employees and cost savings for small businesses.
“Avaya IP Office has proven to bring outstanding contributions to IP communications and winning solutions for its customers,” added Rich Tehrani, Editor-in- Chief of INTERNET TELEPHONY.
The 2008 INTERNET TELEPHONY Excellence Award winners are published in the October 2008 issue of INTERNET TELEPHONY magazine, www.itmag.com.
