China Voice Holding announced that its Chinese subsidiary, Beijing CandidSoft Technology Co. Ltd., has finished the development of their fully featured VoIP switching platform and has integrated it into their patented SKY O/A Office Automation System. Beihang University (BUAA), one of China’s leading research universities, assisted with the development.
The SKY O/A Softswitch platform features technology that has the ability to support converged communications services and replace third party hardware-based switches. The platform was specifically designed to be highly scalable to support the high demand anticipated from the signing of previous contracts. The Chinese subsidiary has already successfully deployed the solution during the initial phase of their contract with the Chinese Navigation Affair Administration Bureau.
China Voice Holding’s President and CEO, Bill Burbank stated, “By developing our own softswitch, CHVC is not only in a much better position to keep the competition out but has also eliminated a very substantial licensing and hardware cost in deploying our Government Contracts. As previously announced, CHVC is currently installing 103,000 initial contracted telephony seats. The third party licensing cost savings will amount to $55 per seat, or over $5,000,000 additional to the bottom line on just those contracts.”
CandidSoft CEO and China Voice Holding’s President of Asian Operations, Xing Chunlin commented, “The Sky O/A voice and data solution now uses technology that we own in every aspect of its services. With over one million Office Automation users currently on our SKY O/A platform, and contracts for hundreds of thousands of seats that include telephone services, it’s essential that we have full control and ownership of the technology. This enables us to properly support our customers and guarantee the highest standards. In addition, by contracting BUAA, the most prestigious engineering university in China, we feel that we have jointly developed one of the most advanced switching platforms available in the World.”
