Virtual Phone System Recognized for Outstanding Innovation in the
Telecommunications Industry for Third Year Running
REDWOOD CITY, Calif.--(Business Wire)--RingCentral, Inc., whose online services allow small businesses to
instantly unify and intelligently manage all their phone, mobile, fax
and email communications, today announced that the company has won
Technology Marketing Corporation's INTERNET TELEPHONY magazine
(www.itmag.com) 2007 Product of the Year Award. Won by RingCentral for
the third consecutive year, this award recognizes the company's
exceptional value to small businesses and its ongoing technology
innovation.
RingCentral provides a complete virtual phone system for small
businesses. Integrating landline, VoIP, cellular, email, voicemail and
fax with a powerful web interface, RingCentral gives small businesses
unprecedented flexibility and control. In 2007, RingCentral introduced
DigitalLine, a proprietary Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) service
that adds the convenience and cost savings of Internet-based telephony
to its virtual phone system. With DigitalLine, RingCentral delivers a
complete hosted PBX solution for small businesses, giving customers
the ability to use a mix of traditional land line, mobile and VoIP
communications to place and receive calls. Unlike other VoIP services,
RingCentral DigitalLine does not require small businesses to rely
solely on VoIP. By integrating all communication lines, RingCentral
provides a smarter way to leverage all the available communications
technologies in the most time- and cost-efficient manner.
"It is with great pride that, for the third year in a row, we
accept this Product of the Year award from the editors of INTERNET
TELEPHONY," said Vlad Shmunis, CEO of RingCentral. "By understanding
the needs of our small business customers, we have made significant
strides in communication services this year. Our decision to offer
VoIP as a value-added component of a feature-rich suite, as opposed to
a standalone offering, reflects our commitment to deliver the most
comprehensive communication service to our customers."
"We are proud to recognize the greatest achievements in the
advancement of VoIP and IP telecommunications technologies in 2007,"
said Rich Tehrani, TMC President and Editor-in-Chief of INTERNET
TELEPHONY magazine. "RingCentral has proven they are dedicated to
quality and excellence while addressing real needs in the
marketplace."
Product of the Year winners will be published in the February 2008
issue of INTERNET TELEPHONY magazine. (www.itmag.com)
