Delicious TMCnet Stories

July 13, 2007
Here is a smattering of home made TMCnet stories, just like mom used to make. Mom’s cookies can’t compare to the brand new Tadiran trailer featured below or Cantata’s fax solutions. And you know, even if mom was the best cook around, try connecting her savory linguini to Microsoft OCS or Microsoft Office Live. Dialogic and RingCentral can do this and their products don’t even need to be refrigerated and reheated overnight!
 
Everyone loves great cooking. Especially the small business. But even the best small business can’t exist on good food alone. That is why Mitel has served up unified communications for the SMB. Save your appetite and read these stories. I promise they all taste great and won’t make you fat.

I am at a local Norwalk restaurant picking up some food. Later today we have a TMC picnic and I want to make sure my mobile blogging interface is fixed. More pics to come.

Packet8 Voice Recording

July 13, 2007
Packet8 is now offering professional voice recording for it’s Virtual Office Hosted iPBX Phone Services. These prompts can also be used for website narration and PowerPoint presentations.
 
I believe this is a great innovation from parent company 8x8. My definition of a VoIP innovation for the record is anything useful that we don’t have easy access to on the PSTN.
 
So my two cents on this news is, it is great for Packet8 customers. While this service may not be applicable for all small businesses, certainly professionally recorded voice prompts make a small business seem big.
 
For my fellow bloggers who are on the leading edge and who may say this is not an innovative service… The typical SMB is about 5-10 years behind the leading edge. Something like this is not a technological feat, it is something that will be useful for SMBs and is packaged in a way that allows the small business owner to spend more time running her/his business.
