Cedar Point Completes Interop Testing with Interactive Intelligence. Check it out:DERRY, N.H., Sept. 19 -- Cedar Point Communications, Inc., the worldwide leader in integrated VoIP switching technologies for the telecommunications industry, today announced that it has completed interoperability testing with Interactive Intelligence Inc.'s enterprise messaging software, Communite(R).
The result combines carrier-class, highly scalable multimedia IP switching from Cedar Point with enhanced messaging applications from Interactive Intelligence to give even the largest of organizations a comprehensive, reliable and cost-effective enterprise communications system.
The testing, which was conducted at Cedar Point's headquarters facility in New Hampshire, successfully proved compatibility between Cedar Point's SAFARI C(Cubed) Multimedia Switching System and Communite, a voicemail replacement and messaging system that provides unified messaging, find-me/follow-me, presence management, and other applications ideal for large and distributed organizations, such as higher education institutions.
"As we grow our higher education and enterprise activity beyond our initial deployment with the University of Massachusetts, it will be important that we work with proven enterprise solutions," said George Kassas, founder and executive vice president, business development for Cedar Point Communications. "The high degree of confidence that major universities have placed in Communite, and Interactive Intelligence's ability to expand our menu of business features make the company a valuable ally in this space."
"Like Cedar Point, we are committed to providing solutions that reduce complexity and cost, and increase results for our customers," said Paul Weber, vice president of North American sales for Interactive Intelligence. "By certifying interoperability between our two products, we can help our mutual customers accelerate the rollout of simpler, more cost-effective voice services that are configured to meet the needs of the higher education environment."
Earlier this year, Cedar Point announced an agreement with the University of Massachusetts for the deployment of SAFARI C(Cubed) to a base of more than 30,000 users on the University campus.
Cedar Point's SAFARI C(Cubed) Multimedia Switching System, the only totally integrated carrier-class VoIP switch that incorporates all of the components that make up the voice switching infrastructure, provides SIP-based features and seamless evolution to an IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) architecture. SAFARI C(Cubed) provides superior performance and reliability, significantly reducing capital expenditures, system integration and operations costs for IT departments and network operators offering telephony services while increasing network integrity, security and privacy.
Interactive Intelligence, a global provider of software and services for contact center automation and enterprise IP telephony since 1994, developed Communite as an alternative to multi-box, proprietary messaging systems. Communite offers a unique single-platform, LDAP-based architecture with a single message store and common directory for simplified set-up, maintenance and administration, and scalability up to hundreds of thousands of users across distributed sites. As a software system based on open standards such as SIP, Communite also provides maximum interoperability and long-term investment protection with a cost-effective, incremental migration path from TDM to VoIP, including support of hybrid environments. Adding to deployment flexibility are Communite's unique universal ports, which enable organizations to run voice mail, unified messaging, fax, IVR and other applications on the same port and on the same platform, thus providing cost-effective and manageable "choose-by-function" options to serve even the most diverse user communities.
