Digium®, Inc., the Asterisk® Company, today announced that it was named a 2009 Tech Innovator by Everything Channel's CRN in the Networking Voice/Data VoIP category. Everything Channel's Tech Innovator award celebrates technology vendors that have introduced new solutions that drive advances throughout the technology channel.
Digium's award-winning Switchvox family of IP PBX systems for small and medium businesses (SMBs) provides affordable unified communications that integrates with popular web applications such as Google maps and Salesforce, as well as providing chat, fax, video and conferencing capabilities. Digium's product lines include a wide range of hardware and software to enable resellers and businesses to implement turnkey business phone system solutions or to design their own Voice over IP (VoIP) systems at a fraction of the cost of proprietary PBX systems.
"Digium is truly honored to be recognized as a 2009 Tech Innovator by Everything Channel for our continued commitment to providing businesses with cutting-edge telephony solutions at a fraction of the cost of traditional PBXs," said Steve Harvey, Digium's vice president of worldwide sales. "We are pleased to share this award with our reseller partners who are moving the IP Telephony market forward with our unified communications solutions."
"Innovation has been a critical, driving force behind growth and expansion of the IT industry since its inception and that innovation continues to this day. As a result of the steady, hard and often unheralded work in the R&D labs throughout the industry, technology, cultural and business leadership happens every day," said Robert C. DeMarzo, senior vice president and editorial director, Everything Channel. "Congratulations to this year's innovators. We applaud you on your success."
