Broadvox opened the 2011 Partner Summit today in Dallas. Sales channel partners and OEMs attended to share information about new products and sales positioning and to learn about the new Broadvox cloud solutions.

The Summit event opened with an Executive Round Table where the CEO of Broadvox and Cypress Communications, Andre Temnorod, and EVP Sales and Marketing, David Byrd, welcomed over 150 participants and discussed the evolution of Broadvox, the SIP Trunking Industry and its role in delivering Cloud Communication solutions. The session was moderated by Rich Tehrani, the CEO of Telecom Marketing Corporation, the only publishing and tradeshow company focusing exclusively on the rapidly growing voice/data convergence and on computer telephony integration. Rich Tehrani is a VoIP industry expert, visionary, author and columnist.

Broadvox announced GO!VBX Managed, a fully managed hosted VoIP and PBX solution offering QoS from the handset to the cloud. The GO!VBX Managed product includes LAN Services and routers, as well as optional phone leasing, at one fixed monthly price.

The GO!VBX solutions delivers a new pricing paradigm to the hosted IP PBX marketplace. By separating the per seat cost of the solution from the communications usage, businesses save as much as 45% over other hosted offerings. GO!VBX is positioned for the Broadvox VARs to add to their product and services portfolios. GO!VBX Managed can be represented by both the Broadvox Partner Channel and the Cypress direct sales channel.

Partner presentations Wednesday featured speakers from Digium, BroadSoft and Cisco.

The day ended with a summit networking event headlined by special guest speaker Roger Staubach ending with a Casino night and silent auction of Staubach autographed memorabilia.
