Voxox CEO and co-founder Bryan Hertz recently did an interview with OC Talk Radio's Strategic Investor program  -- OC Talk Radio is Orange County's only all business talk radio station! Host Charley Wright asked questions about the company -- its history and mission to bring "powerful unified communications to the masses"; Voxox's flagship service, Cloud Phone, "which turns any mobile device into a business phone system in three minutes"; and also about how the U.S. Navy is using Voxox Cloud Phone to reduce and prevent DUIs.

Today we announced that Voxox's flagship offering, Cloud Phone, is gaining a new distribution network in the Middle East and North Africa region through partner Virtustream. According to the new agreement, Virtustream will be working closely with operators and other service providers in the area to partner with Voxox to resell Cloud Phone under their own brand. Details below:

Today The Associated Press helped us spread the word on an amazing customer story with the article titled, "US Navy Turns to Cloud Technology to Reduce Drunken Driving" by Yuri Kageyama. The article was syndicated around the world, online and print, in outlets such as The New York Times and Fox News and many others. So what caught the world's attention?  The U.S. Navy's NPTU (Nuclear Power Training Unit) has been using Voxox Cloud Phone in an unexpected way -- to curb drunk driving among its troops. 

We are excited to announce that our Channel Sales VP Joann Farrar is being recognized in the CRN June print issue as well as online for her leadership and valued efforts! Today's official press release is below:

We announced some news today in regards to the company's vision and direction. We're now going to be 100% focused on innovating for the business market with our Cloud Phone service and our other business solutions. This means we are retiring our free consumer app. Take a look at this morning's press release below and comment here or on our social channels if you have any questions...

Voxox Cloud Phone just went mobile with a new app.  The app complements our original Cloud Phone web service, but it also has some exclusive features. Also noteworthy is that this new mobile app is the first product to use Voxox's patent-pending VoIP codec, which has outperformed Skype, Line, and We Chat in recent MOS tests evaluating voice quality, particularly in poor connectivity environments. Check out the press release below to get the info! 

We just got a really cool recognition from ChannelProSMB - Voxox was named a "Vendor on the Vanguard 2016" in the Unified Communications category, and one key reason is Voxox Cloud Phone!

ChannelProSMB compiles an annual list of "lesser-known innovators you may not have heard of yet, but will be glad to know better" based on the suggestions of analysts and industry influencers. The list is published in the ChannelProSMB March 2016 print issue cover story, which highlights 2-3 companies per industry category. Voxox is on p.24. Here's a quote:

"Voxox Cloud Phone enables cash-strapped businesses to turn a collection of iPhone and Android devices into a robust business telephony system at an affordable cost."

Here's a link to our page in the digital issue of the magazine and our official press release is below:

Voxox is doing a big promo for channel partners this month. For SIP trunking or hosted PBX deals turned in between March 16 and March 31, Voxox will be giving partners a 200 percent SPIFF -- that's 200 percent of the deal's first month revenue!  So, for a deal that's $300 per month, a partner would get a $600 bonus plus their regular commission. And, if this partner turns the deal in at the Channel Partners show this week, said partner will also get a $100 gift card on top!  Not bad, right?  

Check out the details for our exciting, limited-time promos in today's press release below:

The Voxox team is in Barcelona this week showcasing our latest innovation -- a new patent-pending VoIP codec that is only available to Voxox partners (e.g., mobile and cable operators, OEMs, and other service providers) as part of the Voxox Platform as a Service offering. We've been doing rigorous testing alongside competitors, and we've found that the new Voxox codec has dramatically outperformed popular competitive technologies in poor connectivity environments with significant packet loss. Voxox is demonstrating these test results and showcasing its new codec at Mobile World Congress 2016 in Hall 1 (Booth 1H31).

Making the switch to a hosted PBX phone system comes with a long list of benefits, but topping the list are the financial gains for businesses that adopt the services of a trusted hosted phone service provider. One of the biggest financial benefits of hosted PBX is the lower total cost of ownership (TCO), for the ability to reduce your upfront and ongoing costs of the system. When you replace your landline and outdated phone system with a hosted PBX phone system, only the actual phones are located in your office. The costs and responsibility of powering, maintaining, and supporting the phone systems are covered by the vendor and managed remotely. You only pay for the services that you need on a per user basis, and you can often lease the actual phones as well.
