QuesCom, the leading European provider of GSM Gateways for IP and ISDN environments today announced that it has been named to the 2005 “pulver 100” – the Voice over IP industry’s premiere listing of privately held growth companies that represent the future of the communications ecosystem. QuesCom has been named to the list due to its increased real-world deployment and significant growth rate.
QuesCom’s products include the QuesCom 400 IP/GSM gateway which integrates seamlessly into today’s IP environments and delivers mobility services as well as immediate reductions of between 50 and 90 per cent on corporate phone bills by converting expensive fix-to-mobile (F2M) calls to cheaper mobile-to-mobile (M2M) calls and converting mobile to fix (M2F) calls to cheaper mobile-to-mobile (M2M) or mobile-to-VoIP calls. Companies can then use these savings to finance the purchase of their handsets or other related IP equipment without impacting on budgets. QuesCom is continuously certififying its IP/GSM Gateway with a wide range of leading IP PBX vendors and has already certified with Cisco, Alcatel, Innovaphone to ensure full compatibility between its gateway and the vendorsIP PBX.
“The pulver 100 is the VoIP industry’s first and foremost award listing, and continues to grow in significance because companies like QuesCom carry on the spread of IP communications through innovative products like the QuesCom 400,” said Jeff Pulver, Founder and Chairman of pulvermedia. “As such we’re proud to name QuesCom to this year’s pulver 100.”
“We are pleased to be acknowledged by Pulver and to join other leading VoIP providers in this exclusive club,” said Bernard Le Moing, VP Sales and Marketing for QuesCom. “This honour recognises QuesCom’s innovative approach to the VoIP market and the advances we have made in delivering our products to reseller partners and end-users throughout Europe.”
Originally introduced in 2002, the pulver 100 features private companies in the communications sector that have substantial real-world deployments and enjoy significant growth rates. The value chain characterised by pulver 100 differs from the vertically integrated telecom model of the last century, focusing more on a networking-industry model that espouses open interfaces, connectivity decoupled from services, and software decoupled from hardware.
