Netspoke blazed a trail in the web conferencing industry with its reservationless conferencing services, now an industry standard. It is again taking a leadership position by being among the first to offer hosted full-featured VoIP services to its customers. Netspoke's hosted VoIP conferencing service represents an especially significant solution from the long line of application developers that have used NMS' Open Access building blocks to create exciting, useful, and affordable new applications for the enterprise. Netspoke will use NMS' Open Access to build the VoIP backbone its customers need to capitalize on the increasing reliability and cost-effectiveness of converged IP voice and data networks.

In addition to offering features such as real-time communication and web collaboration capabilities, as well as other enhancements that aren't available with traditional PSTN-based conferencing, the Netspoke IP conferencing service will provide enterprise users other key benefits, including capital expenditure reduction, lowered organizational costs and increased workforce efficiency.

"IP convergence promises cost savings, increased functionality and one network to manage," said Analyst Jim Regan of Frost & Sullivan. "Corporate desire to capitalize on these benefits has fueled demand for converged voice and data networks, which in turn is driving increased demand for IP-based audio and web conferencing services."

Netspoke President and CEO Scott D'Entremont said, "We selected NMS' Open Access products because of their scalability and flexibility. These features will help us build a dependable VoIP solution that allows our customers to stay at the forefront of the latest conferencing technology as they collaborate on vital business issues in real time."
