Bandwidth.com announces the general availability of wholesale voice origination on the FlexNetwork– its nationwide, all-IP voice network. The FlexNetwork is quickly becoming the network of choice for Voice 2.0 innovators because it features the latest IP voice technology, full geographic redundancy for mission-critical applications, and an API that allows companies to integrate into the FlexNetwork’s number management system. Additionally, Bandwidth.com works with FlexNetwork customers to expose new functionality, such as SMS capability, that allows Voice 2.0 application providers to enhance their offerings to customers.
Services such as Voxeo, Ifbyphone, OnState & Yext have been early adopters of the FlexNetwork as nationwide rate-centers have come on-line over the past year. In fact, the network is already on pace to deliver almost 4 billion minutes of voice service in 2009, with well over 1 million phone numbers. Here are real-world examples of innovative applications that are using the FlexNetwork today: “Ifbyphone’s mission is simple: we automated phone calls,” said Irv Shapiro, CEO of Ifbyphone. “With our platform, customers can route and track inbound calls, automate outbound calls, and create complete IVR experiences - all from an easy, web based portal. The FlexNetwork is a low-cost, flexible network that allows us to focus on our application platform.”
