Sangoma Technologies Corporation (TSX VENTURE:STC - News;
www.sangoma.com), a leading provider of connectivity hardware and
software products supporting voice transport, WANs and Internet
infrastructure, and the Null Team Company (
www.null.ro), primary
developer of Yate, announced today an agreement to develop a
Windows-based version of the GPL-licensed Yate telephony project.
Yate is a next-generation telephony engine. While the project
currently supports VoIP/ telephony gateways and Interactive Voice
Response (IVR), its power lies in its scalability. Voice, video, data
and instant messaging can all run independently under Yate's flexible
routing engine while interacting through a unified messaging system.
"Most commercial IVR applications such as call centers are
Windows-based. This open source initiative will free developers from
reliance on hard-to-use, proprietary solutions based on expensive
hardware," says Sangoma Technologies President and CEO David
Mandelstam. "Recognizing the inherent strengths of the Yate model we
have offered our technical and financial assistance to offer this
project to the large market that is dominated by Windows. We expect to
take a leadership role as we support the project for the developer
community."
"Yate for Windows provides the first open solution for Windows-based
clients requiring integrated, customized telephony systems," says
Diana Cionoiu the leader of the YATE project. "Because of the modular
nature, stability and scalability of Yate, it is a natural integration
platform for the developers of high quality open source
telephony-related software."
