AltiGen's ExtensionAnywhere mobile technology coupled with Multi-Tech Systems' portfolio of CallFinder cellular gateways offer increased cost savings for companies with remote and mobile workers
FREMONT, Calif., Sept. 28 / -- AltiGen® Communications, Inc., a pioneering manufacturer of VoIP business phone systems and call center solutions, and Multi-Tech Systems, Inc., a leading manufacturer of products that connect voice and data over IP networks, are teaming up to deliver a complete mobile communications solution.
By bundling the Multi-Tech CallFinder® GSM and CDMA cellular gateways with the AltiGen Office and MAX1000 series of VoIP Business Phone Systems, the companies seamlessly bridge an AltiGen phone system to a cellular network. The AltiGen - Multi-Tech Systems product combination enables businesses to save telecommunications costs by taking advantage of lower cost cellular networks for routing calls rather than traditional landlines. By utilizing the AltiGen ExtensionAnywhere(TM) feature to route calls through a cellular network, the CallFinders will provide toll-free calling between headquarters and cell phones in the field. The CallFinder gateways can also provide back-up communications, including emergency 911 services, in the event of central office public switched telephone network (PSTN) failure.
According to Dan Nelson, Vice President of Sales, North America for Multi-Tech Systems, "The ExtensionAnywhere feature of AltiGen makes it possible for users to receive extension calls on their cellular phones and provides an excellent complement to the Multi-Tech CallFinder. Routing ExtensionAnywhere calls through the cellular gateway to the remote user's cell phone results in a free in-network cellular-to-cellular call. Our product combination will bring better performing telephony at a lower cost to a wide variety of applications and vertical markets."
"The trend toward mobile, remote and distributed workers continues to grow and our collaboration provides an exciting opportunity for AltiGen and Multi-Tech Systems," said Jeremiah Fleming, President and COO of AltiGen. "This new bundled solution will enable companies to improve their business communications capabilities in a more efficient, cost effective way than previously possible. This further demonstrates AltiGen's commitment to deliver the most complete unified communications solution."
