Infonetics includes the North America Business VoIP Services Leadership Scorecard with its annual VoIP and Unified Communications (News - Alert) Services and Subscribers Report. The initiative from Infonetics was started to identify the top service providers in the hosted VoIP and IP connectivity markets. The service providers are recognized after taking into consideration several crucial parameters such as the client install base, the financial stability and market strategy employed as well as service capabilities and support options provided to the customers.

In a release, Dan Foster (News - Alert), president of business markets at MegaPath, said that “Enterprises of all sizes depend on MegaPath to deliver reliable voice, data and security solutions to stay connected with their headquarters, customers and locations across the country. This recognition from Infonetics Research (News - Alert) is a testament to the value our services deliver and we will continue to raise the bar for what businesses can expect from their voice and data provider.”

The Hosted Voice and Integrated Voice solutions were also recognized with the INTERNET TELEPHONY’s 2010 Product of the Year award.
