PortaOne announces the availability of its new PortaClient app for the Apple iPhone—an application promising new convenience to customers of VoIP service providers using PortaOne's PortaSwitch platform. PortaClient, now available at no cost in a demo version, lets iPhone end-users access their account information and usage data, check balances, manage their service settings, and even initiate low-cost VoIP calls using the PortaSwitch callback engine (callback feature disabled in demo version).

Effective immediately, VoIP service providers and telecom operators can request a customized version of PortaClient supporting their customer base from Spolecne, a PortaOne business partner and developer of PortaClient. The PortaClient demo app is now available for download at no cost from the iPhone AppStore.

PortaSwitch, PortaOne's flagship product, is a premier telecommunications services and subscriber management platform for telephony service providers. Capable of handling the complete call control and converged VoIP billing functions of a diversified digital services company, PortaSwitch allows wholesale VoIP carriers and Internet Telephony Service Providers to deliver a wide variety of business models quickly and flexibly.

The PortaClient iPhone app offers a full range of users including customer information (balance, status and payment status); account information (contact, status, balance and validity); call processing (set ups for ring, call forwarding and voicemail); call list (showing five most recent calls); and VoIP calling via PortaSwitch's callback feature (to make a VoIP call, the user supplies the requested number to the PortaSwitch engine, which then calls the user back and initiates the connection).
