Reputed supplier of carrier-class multimedia and Voice over IP Solutions (VoIP) for communications service providers, VocalTec Communications Ltd, recently announced that its popular Essentra VoIP softswitch has been awarded the Class 4, Class 5 and Lawful Interception Certificates by the Ukrainian Scientific Research Institute of Radio and Television. This accreditation is seen as a positive affirmation of VocalTec’s (News - Alert) efforts to emerge as a key player in the VoIP solutions market segment across the Ukraine.
Being among one of the foremost companies to have been awarded this rare accreditation, VocalTec has moved from strength to strength in the Ukraine. The accreditation is awarded to softswitch solutions which satisfy all the stringent regulatory requirements set out by Ukrainian authorities and the norms set for industrial installations all over the country. This is the fifth such accreditation that VocalTec has received for its deployments across Russia and the CIS, for its regulatory conformation and this has resulted in making it a lot simpler for operators to install VocalTec’s unique NGN offerings.
The company further announced setting up a regional R&D center in Lviv with a view to strongly align itself with the market sentiments in Ukraine and strongly establish itself in the market. The Lviv based R&D team will collaborate with the company’s international R&D team to evolve and provide unique, one-of-a-kind VoIP services and capabilities to its clients. Overall, the R&D center and the company’s aggressive marketing and business development strategic plans in the Ukraine and neighboring regions, make a strong case for the resilient growth of the company and its efforts to evolve solutions that better suit their increasing clientele.
VocalTec believes that these achievements score a key landmark in their infiltration into the Ukraine market. They are strategically committed to implementing steps to make their installation as standardized and uncomplicated as possible for their clients and securing accreditation from relevant authorities is a step in that direction. The R&D center set up further reinstates their commitment to emerging as the most prominent player in the VoIP solutions segment in the Ukraine.
VocalTec is a global path breaker in delivering VoIP trunking, VoIP peering and both residential and business VoIP applications that help enterprises deploy scalable and dynamic next generation networks (NGNs). It provides the underlying platform for several prominent telecom carriers across the world like Deutsche Telekom and Telecom Italia San Marino.
